Album Notes & Community Reviews

Paolo Conte's 'Paris milonga' deepened his persona as a gravel-voiced chronicler of cosmopolitan nostalgia, cabaret, and jazz-inflected Italian song. The album's mix of milonga, swing references, and chanson-like atmosphere became part of Conte's distinctive canzone d'autore vocabulary.
