Story & Background
The 1966 album "I Giganti", despite being the group's eponymous debut, was not conceived as an organic work planned in the studio, but rather as a strategic collection of early hits and minor tracks that had already established the band in the Italian beat scene. The true core and driving force behind its release was the single "Una ragazza in due". Originally released as the B-side of the 45 rpm single "Ora che ti amo" at the end of 1965, the track proved to be an unexpected and overwhelming success. RIFI, the record label, had to quickly reverse the sides of the record to capitalise on the incredible popularity of "Una ragazza in due", which climbed the Italian charts to reach the number one position. The '66 album, therefore, was essentially a commercial response to the explosion of that single, consolidating I Giganti's status as one of the most beloved and innovative bands of the local beat scene, a true manifesto of their unique blend of vocal harmonies and modern sounds.
