Augusto Martelli - The Real McCoy, Vol.2 '1975

Tracks list

One year after the effervescent "The Real Mc Coy," Augusto Martelli returns in
1975 with "The Real Mc Coy Vol. 2," a pyrotechnic and sparkling sequel released
on his own Aguamanda Records label. Like its predecessor, this record pulsates
with an infectious blend of excitement and lightheartedness.

Across its nine tracks, "The Real Mc Coy Vol. 2" expands Martelli's signature
sound. The festive and propulsive arrangements with exotic and urban flair
remain, but here the influence of disco music is more pervasive ("Tip Top
Theme," "The Swan," and "Moondrops"). Also, Martelli weaves his orchestral
flourishes with a more prominent layer of infectious drum breaks ("Kangaroo")
and seems especially creatively permeable to the vibrant energy of South
American rhythms ("Na Voixe Dixeiva" and "Sambalonga").

Last but not least, Martelli's playful genius is on full display in the unique
"Bom De De Bom Bom," which became quite popular upon its release and where he
seamlessly blends the sensual rhythms of a Brazilian samba with playful vocals
in the Genoese dialect.
