"La prima cosa bella" was the famous song that secured second place in Sanremo, Italian band Ricchi and Poveri, 50 years ago. Today, on February 5, the band consisting of Angela Brambati, Angelo Sotgiu, Franco Gatti and Marina Occhiena will return to the big Ariston theater stage.
In the 70th edition of the Sanremo Festival, Amadeus managed to accomplish what until recently seemed impossible, uniting in the same scene where the legendary band had brought a big hit 50 years ago.
It is expected today that band members Angela Brambati and Angelo Sotgiu will reunite with Franco Gatti who left in 2016 and Marina Occhiena, who in 1981 continued her career as a soloist.
Where could the 50th anniversary of this hit have been more beautifully celebrated than in the scene where it was first introduced?
â??We are fourth in the group to honor the love the public has always forgiven us. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of our first success is like going back home after a long journey and strengthening an essential connection. "
"La prima cosa bella" was the springboard for success for Ricchi and Poveri, who then recorded a series of hits that have been sung and heard in Albania thousands of times, such as: "Che sarà ", "Se m'innamoro", " Sarà perché ti amo â?andâ?? Mamma Maria â?.
