<p>It has been quite some time that Viennese downbeat and swing icon <strong>Klaus Waldeck</strong> – reknown for his landmark <strong>„Ballroom Stories“</strong> (2007) – has put us on hold. Now the waiting game is over:</p>
<br />
<p>The anticipation is high and Waldeck raises the stakes by adding one more surprise: <strong>Italian</strong> is the language that Waldeck has chosen for our delight. He has found us a new <strong>sparkling </strong>and <strong>erotic</strong> voice, the viennese singer <strong>„la Heidi“.</strong></p>
<br />
<p>Waldeck himself likes to label Gran Paradiso as a <strong>"Spaghetti & Western" </strong>production.</p>
<br />
<p><em>„Gran Paradiso is a hommage to the legendery sound of <strong>italo-western movies –</strong> yet it also dwells on those sentimental moods of the famous italian<strong> canzone</strong>  - but always keeps the ironic distance.“</em></p>
<br />
<p><em>„<strong>Italiian... this language is pure music. 100%“</strong></em></p>
<br />
<p>The overall sound of the album clearly is earmarked by Waldecks unique signature sound. The odd <strong>tango, dub</strong> und <strong>reggae</strong> elements round off this light hearted summer album, that you may want to listen to even in autumn or winter to warm up your spirit.<br /> <strong>Italian music, like not so often heard before!</strong><br /> <strong>Mille grazie Mr. Waldeck!</strong></p>
