they are a gruop right from here in detroit. and i love these guys. i can't remember though which song they sing, they do sopmethign simliar as in here wehre they tell a story in this one he talks about his son going to an italian university in the middle eat Aya tola you but i can not remember which song as that line in it
Their songs bring me back to my first love at sixteen and we just celebrated our sixtieth anniversary I do think they are from Calabria my mom always sang a lot of their songs th e dialect is like mine I love listening it brings my treasured memories to mind and heart especially the mandolin songs we danced t thanks gaylords,
This version of the song was actually released on the short lived MOTOWN sub label, Prodigal Records in 1976. It got occasional airplay on certain US radio stations, therefore becoming a minor hit, peaking as high as No. 72 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Just to clear things up--this was a smash for Julius LaRosa in late '53. I'm quite sure the Gaylords did not record it back then; however they had a minor hit (as Gaylord & Holiday) with it in 1976.
Pretty sure they did record it back than. I might still have this on a 45. If not the flip side, I also have their recording of The Little Shoemaker, the tune from which was used for a Detroit Area Ford dealership's commercial in the late 50's or maybe early 60's. I also remember that ad being resurrected, just not when. The 70's ? I can still partially recall the lyrics. The gimmick was for every mile you drove to reach the dealer (located on Nine Mile) they'd pay you a dollar.
wow, it's has been a long time since I heard this one, brings back super great memories. thanks for sharing - heard it in a restaurant in Orange County yesterday and had to look it up!
Al Italia reminds me of Air Alaska when you fly to Alaska. They say “thank you for choosing to fly with Air Alaska.” Who to hell chose Air Alaska? It’s the only Airline in Alaska.
my grandpa introduced me to this band... such a gem.

I haven't heard it in nearly 40 years since I was a teen and my father bought it on a 45 record.
"Thank you for flying Italian Airlines"
Awww did I cryed from laughter.
Brings back memories from the mid 50's. Beautiful tunes and wonderful family "get togethers" with uncles, aunts and grandparents.

In the very early 50s, before Rock and Roll became the hit, these guys were one of best groups....I had practically all of their 78 RPM records.......

A commercial for an airline that mentions a crash landing? That's a bold strategy.
Reminds me of my last trip on Delta!
JOHN HINDS may ask sir , where you in the left or the right side ?

Garibaldi mangia pane 😅😅😅
Alitalia??? Wow! Lol! That was the best.
that's hilarious reminds me of the nester pester records I used to listen to in the 70s
Its nice to hear entertainers that don’t talk political crap all the time! Its time these fools disappeared.
Too bad Spotify doesn't have this version..
When did Alitalia get in the act ? No mention back in 1954.
Eh! Whersa Julius LaRosa????
Hey! I know Garibaldi Mangipani. he likesa Lambrusco Regiano. You know Arte Mengino?? Froma Calabria?? Mange la cacciatore!!
