Patty Pravo - Donna con te ( Italy Mid - 60's )

Back


Patty Pravo is the stage name of Italian pop singer Nicoletta Strambelli, born in Venice on 9 April 1948. She studied at the conservatory institute Benedetto Marcello and has known American poet and writer Ezra Pound and the pope Angelo Roncalli (Pope John XXIII). Irrepressible and adventurous, at age 15 she left home to live in London and then Rome. In Rome she began her career singing in the night club called Piper Club. In 1966 she made her first single, "Ragazzo Triste" (Sad Boy), the highly successful Italian version of the song "But You're Mine" by Sonny Bono. Patty followed that by recording numerous songs, the most popular being "Qui e là" (Here and There), "Se Perdo Te" (If I Lose You, 1967), "La Bambola" (The Doll, 1968), "Sentimento" (Feeling, 1968), "Tripoli '69" (1969), "Il Paradiso" (The Heaven, written by Lucio Battisti in 1969), "Pazza Idea" (Crazy Idea, 1973) and "Pensiero Stupendo" (Stupendous Thought, 1978). She is featured on many Italian television programs and in 1970 she hosted her own program called Bravo-Pravo!, broadcast on French television. She became a symbol for women of the 60s, exemplifying their evolution from more established conservative roles. Patty is blonde, lithe and striking in appearance, yet she has a deep voice, ideally suited for rock and dramatic musicals. In 1978, she appeared on a TV show called Stryx, wearing very strange and provocative clothing which had many heads turning. She became more prolific, and by 1994 was traveling to China to record her album Ideogrammi. In 1995 she returned to Italy and re-emerged in 1997 singing "E Dimmi Che Non Vuoi Morire", written by Vasco Rossi. She seems to have discovered a new-found creativity, releasing four albums in 2004 alone.
