You can read the original text here: Angelo "Leadbelly" Rossi Angelo Rossi , also known under the pseudonym of Leadbelly, is an Italian singer , guitarist and record producer , considered one of the main Italian blues performers. Biography Originally from Cardano al Campo , he owes his nickname to the famous blues singer Huddie William Ledbetter who inspired him. His solo exhibitions where he accompanies himself with acoustic guitar, electric guitar, kazoo and harmonica, are linked to the tradition of the delta blues and are often interspersed both with ironic moments and with real quotes about his past in the land of Mississippi. It is, by far, considered the foremost interpreter of acoustic blues in Italy and has participated in the main blues festivals held in Italy. At the end of the eighties he worked for a long time with the American bluesman Larry Johnson playing often in the United States. After a first self-produced cassette in 1985 and a continuous live activity around Italy he was contacted by Ernesto De Pascale with whom he made the first album for the Il Popolo del Blues label, Jump Up Songs composed of tracks recorded live. In 2006 he published a new album, self-produced, I Don't Want to Take Nothing With Me When I'm Gone. In 2012 he promoted the Nerves & Muscles project together with Max Prandi and Tiziano "Rooster" Galli which led to the creation of New Mind Revolution.
