Not exactly my cup of coffee!!.......2004-03-19

When I purchased this item I had been looking long and hard for one of my favorite artists -- Carlo Buti -- so when I saw that he was one of the featured artists on this album I bought it. Unfortunately the other artists on the album left me wanting more Carlo Buti. While the songs were nostalgic and brought a tear to my eyes, I found myself wishing the entire album had been Carlo Buti. Sorry, Gigli and the others left me wanting more Buti. If not for him the album would have gone in the not played pile. But I loved the songs.
