Hello, All!
I had not checked this post of mine for awhile, and was delighted to see it close to the top of the Italy postings list!! Thank you, all of you, for your suggestions. I hope others will continue to add to the list.
Happy Holidays to each one of you.
P.S. LovesItaly-- I will look forward to your titles, when you have a chance to get to it. Thanks so much.

Dog_Mother, I have not forgotten you, honest. You are on the top of my "mental list". Right now I am trying to finish wrapping all the Christmas presents. Of course if I got off Fodors it would go quicker, right? LOL.
Will be gone to SF until Wednesday night and than Thursday a couple of appointments and than to my daughter and SIL and kids Christmas Eve and Christmas. They only live 10 minutes away but I always stay there with them (a vacation in my own town!). And Christmas Day after opening presents etc. I am going to get the most up to date list of Italian CD's for you. They have so many.
The only question I have is, do you know somewhere where you can buy Italian CD's? We use to be able to order them through the Wherehouse but no longer. My kids have them sent to them by friends in Italy, England and Canada (the spoiled brats!). They burn me copies so that is how I have them, but they need to give me the new ones (maybe Christmas morning?). Anyway, I do not know where you live but that was my only concern, if you can get them where you are.
Do have a beautiful holiday. The best to you and your loved ones. And check back on this thread of yours after Christmas.

I didn't intend to leave out any specific suggestions (such as name of artist, album title, song title--things that I would need when I go music shopping). If I did leave out something such as that, I didn't intend to.
I DID leave out general suggestions, such as Italian operas, Neopolitan love songs, etc.
My apologies if my list didn't capture everything. It would never be my intention to slight anyone's favorite music.
