Ep 83 Part 1

Come along with Donna and Dr Adam and experience the famous ancient village of Alberobello in Southern Italy with its well-preserved Trulli houses in this special video episode!

From Donna: "In 1967, I found myself in a Warner Bros recording studio in Rome, Italy. I was asked to sing a theme to a movie called "Once Before I Die", starring Ursula Andress. To promote the song Warner Bros. sent me down the coast of the Adriatic to a tiny mountain town called Alberobello. This was an ancient village, well preserved with the unique Trulli style houses made of lime and slate. A video was made of me standing on old Roman ruins singing the song. My collaborator and producer, Dr. Adam Gerace, recently traveled to Italy and visited Alberobello which has given me an opportunity to share this very rare unreleased recording along with photos taken by my dad, Morey, during our 1960's stay. Never dreamed this would become a reality and I sincerely hope you enjoy it!"
