Diamante - Zucchero Sugar Fornaciari

'It's better than nothing', I must have thought when I bought this single. It features an edited version of Zucchero's most accomplished song, 'Diamante'. The album version is a few minutes longer and contains lots of atmosphere which is missing from this edited version.

The single went by unnoticed in most territories, but when Zucchero broke through internationally, I heard this song and was immediately hooked. Music like this is rare and precious.

My collection: 7" single no. 1785
Found: November 7, 1992
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'Diamante (edited version)' / 'Il mare impetuoso al tramonto sali sulla luna e dietro una tendina di stelle...'
