Ricky Blake And The Royals have released an impressive opera twist album titled "I Want To Love You Ti Amerò". The album is a fusion of classical opera and modern pop, which creates a unique listening experience. The vocals by Ricky Blake are powerful, and he effortlessly blends his voice with the classical instruments. The album features a variety of tracks, each with its own charm and style. The opening track "Overture" sets the tone for the rest of the album with its grand and majestic sound. "Nessun Dorma" is a standout track, with Ricky's emotive vocals taking center stage. The album also features a cover of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen, which is a refreshing take on the classic song. The instrumentation on the album is top-notch, with each instrument adding to the overall sound of the album. The album is a perfect blend of classical and pop, and Ricky Blake And The Royals have done an excellent job of creating a unique sound. "I Want To Love You Ti Amerò" is a must-listen for anyone who enjoys classical music and modern pop.
Opera Twist is of course a re-recorded uptempo version of the single the Black Dynamites recorded earlier in 1960 for Delahay Records/Top Rank and the ballad I want to love you is definitely among my all time favourites.
P.S. even without picture sleeve this single ain't an easy find so cherish yours!
