Riccardo Fogli

<p>The Eurovision audience first met Riccardo Fogli in 1983 when he brought Italy back to the contest after a couple of years absence with the song "Per Lucia". But his biggest break actually came the year before, when he won the San Remo festival with "Storie di tutti i giorni", which became a huge hit not only in Italy, but all over the world, and took him to gigs in places like the USSR, where the record sold a million copies.</p><p>What happened in Munich, is he willing to tell us about it, what has happened since then and why did he leave Italy's most successful band Pooh back in 1974?</p><p>We also get to listen to his latest single and to several artists who have covered or outright plagiarised his songs.</p><br><p>Big thanks to Yanna Yancheva at J &amp; K Productions and Azzurra Music. </p><br><p>Legend: Riccardo Fogli</p><br><p>Song:&nbsp;<em>Per Lucia </em>(Italy 1983)</p><br><p>Host:&nbsp;Emil Löfström</p><br><p>Interpreter: Maria Alexandra</p><br><p>Contact:&nbsp;emil@schlagervannerna.se</p><br><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/eurovisionlegendspodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/eurovisionlegendspodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><br><p><a href="https://shows.acast.com/5ef9a2bf2a01c450649b1146" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http//www.eurovisionlegends.se</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
