Al di la - Emilio Pericoli

I still haven't been able to locate a copy of Betty Curtis' version of 'Al di la', from the Eurovision Song Contest 1961, but the cover version in Dutch by Sandra Reemer, 'Al di la (Net als wij)' was a recent purchase. And now, here's Emilio Pericoli's version.

This Japanese single presents two songs from the motion picture 'Lovers must learn' (1962), in which a librarian (Suzanne Pleshette) goes to Italy "to learn about love," meets two men (Troy Donahue, Rossano Brazzi) and sees much lovely scenery. The score of the movie included 'Al di la', and this single presents the song in beautiful Japanese style.

My collection: 7" single no. 6727
Found: Discogs.com, received 11 June 2022
Cost: £4
Tracks: 'Al di la' / 'Rome adventure'
