The princess and Guiseppe

“Bedtime Stories Italian Style”   by Giuseppe, the Italian Baby-sitter!   Box Office Records   “…a decidedly different delineation of a half-dozen famous fairy tales.   Combining today’s adult world of reality with the time-honored world of fantasy…”     “Taking farcical liberties under the protection of his pizzeria palaver, he puts the accent high on hilarity”     Giuseppe is in reality a prominent orchestra leader born and raised in NYC.   His Italian accent is strictly for this album, recorded at the repeated urging of friends who have joyfully sampled his performances at private parties.
