Dicitancello vuje
E. Russo - R. Falvo 

Artist: Bandera Latina
Album: Sardegna mia

This is very old Neapolitan love song. Covered by a host
of Italian en American artists. Most famous are versions
by Renato Carrusone and Renzo Arbore.

This version, by Bandera Latina features some very interesting
accordeon harmonies and quite intricate guitar playing.

[This part has a guitar playing the chords 'arpeggio']
