Mambo Italiano: Buon Natale, Part One (Audio)

Dec 25, 2016
Hosted by Tom DePietro.
The monthly show Mambo Italiano falls on Christmas Day this year. What a great opportunity to celebrate "Boun Natale" —— with an extended four-hour edition of all your favorite Italian-American performers singing songs of the season, both sacred and secular. A little holiday schmaltz and much righteous cheer from the whole gang of paisans: From Frank and Dino to Tony and Perry. With Bobby Darin, Connie Francis, Joni James, Al Martino, Jerry Vale, and Lou Monte chiming in as well. Special guests include Dion, Louis Prima, Laura Nyro and, yes, the very Italian Bruce Springsteen.
