I Ribelli – I Ribelli

I Ribelli were an italian band originally set as Adriano Celentano’s accompanying group. They soon become a powerful Beat band featuring the amazing vocals of the late Demetrio Stratos (Area – do we really need to tell you who he was?).
This album, originally released in 1968 via Ricordi, is a collection of great songs which includes their hit single Pugni Chiusi and an incerdible version of the Supremes’ hit You Keep Me Hangin’ On (Chi Mi Aiuterà).
Never properly reissued since its 1968 release, excluding a cheap re-release on Ricordi’s own budget line Orizzonte to cash on Demetrio Stratos’ success with Area, this is one album you can’t really miss.
