Joe Pesci Sings!
Joe Pesci is obviously well known for his movie career, most notably Goodfellas and My Cousin Vinny, but his vocal talents have been a well kept secret. Pesci’s 1968 Brunswick release under the name Little Joe Richie is a fun listen, but his more recent collaboration with organist Joey DeFrancesco (Falling In Love Again) is truly outta this world. If you listen carefully, you’ll find the obvious influence of his musical hero Little Jimmy Scott. Five Stars!
