This new album, "Perry Como In Italy," had to be bellissimo. For one thing, all the songs are Italian favorites―the kind of music Perry has always shown a special feeling for. And it was recorded in Rome, the perfect setting for beautiful ballads like these. Here Perry sings in both English and Italian, and his smooth, relaxed vocal style blends words, moods and emotions into one "language"―the language of romance. Enjoy Como at his most melodic in such selections as "Santa Lucia," Souvenir d'Italie," "Forget Domani," "Anema e core" and "Arrivederci Roma," It's your passport to a musical Roman Holiday. And Your vacation starts at your nearest record store.
