Description from the seller
Mina, 1970 (281)
Nicknamed the Tiger of Cremona, she is considered one of the greatest interpreters in the history of Italian music. She is known for her vocal qualities and for having been a leading figure in the sixties and seventies in numerous television shows broadcast by Rai. Her vocality is characterized by great breadth and range, able to combine vocal power with flexibility, and is supported by a solid technique; Mina also stands out for her interpretive gifts and eclecticism, which have led her to successfully tackle musical genres often far apart. With over 150 million albums sold, she is the Italian music artist with the most records sold worldwide. During her career, which began in the late fifties and is still ongoing, Mina has performed more than 500 songs, achieving records and receiving awards and recognitions, with two appearances at the Sanremo Festival.
Photographed exclusively for three evenings by Franco Turcati at Mack1 in Turin in 1970. This photo is part of a sequence of her hand movements that she greatly appreciated.
The Mina-signed photo is not part of the lot; it is included only as a reference.
