Gloria Lasso

You could say that Gloria Lasso's life reads very much like a fairytale – a story filled with happiness, pain, witches and magicians.

Once upon a time, Gloria Lasso, then a surgeon's assistant, was asked by a local radio show to fill in for a singer who had suddenly fallen ill. Little did she know that this was to be the beginning of what turned out to be an illustrious international career. Encouraged by this initial success, she made her debut in France in 1954. A short time later she sang her own version of Rina Ketty's Mediterranean song "Hola Que Tal", which she recorded in both French and Spanish, as she would the majority of her records. Francis Lopez wrote "Le pauvre muletier" for her, which turned out to be one of her biggest hits. She then triumphed at the Olympia two years in a row before recording her million seller "Bon voyage", followed by "Le torrent" (see "Bon Voyage" on EMI, no. 854 848-2).

In 1959 she took over the Pinder tour from the celebrated Luis Mariano (tracks 14 to 18 on the second CD). With the arrival of Dalida, she changed her style, calling on other composers such as Gainsbourg, with whom she recorded his "La chanson de Prévert" (see the CD "Tribute To Serge Gainsbourg", EMI no. 854 067-2), becoming the first of a long line of famous performers to work with him. In 1963, with songs such as "Comédien" and "Noël de Nicomède", this now celebrated international songstress was far from the Gloria Lasso of the 1950s. And the fairytale didn't end there, for Gloria Lasso is still famous throughout the world, especially in Mexico, where she would eventually star in her own television programme, the "Gloria Lasso Show".
