Who Are Those Singes & Musicians ~ Vinicio Gori

 

Vinicio Gori was born in Prato, Tuscany, Italy in 1942. He was a pop singer active in the mid to late 1960s. Very little is on the Internet about him. He did record the main theme for the 1964 Spaghetti western “Die for a Dollar in Tucson” starring Ronny De Marc.

The Discogs record site shows the one pictured above 45 rpm single.

Gori has a Facebook page so apparently he’s still alive and living in his hometown.

  1. Probably this song is based on OST of "Gli eroi di ieri... oggi... e domani".

  3. J'ai très bien Connu Vinicio Gori. Il a chanté dans une boîte de nuit de Biarritz, France, le Taboga, pendant plusieurs saisons entre 1968 et 1971.Il a une voix magnifique.Il parle très bien français et je me souviens d'un homme très intelligent et charmant. Nous avons échangé des lettres pendant longtemps et je devais lui rendre visite à Prato, mais à l'époque je terminais mes étudess et allais entrer dans la vie professionnelle. Je garde un excellent souvenir de lui.Mon nom est Sabine, je suis d'origine allemande et vis en France depuis très longtemps. Si tu me lis, Vinicio, tu te souviendres surement de moi. Je te souhaite du bonheur, de la chance et une excellente santé.

  4. I knew Vinicio Gori very well. He sang in a nightclub in Biarritz, France, the Taboga, for several seasons between 1968 and 1971. He has a magnificent voice. He speaks French very well and I remember a very intelligent and charming man. We exchanged letters for a long time and I was supposed to visit him in Prato, but at the time I was finishing my studies and was about to enter professional life. I have a great memory of him. My name is Sabine, I am of German origin and have lived in France for a very long time. If you read me, Vinicio, you will surely remember me. I wish you happiness, luck and excellent health.
