Biography
Peppino Di Capri was born on July 27th, 1939 in Capri, the island from which he took his stage name. Peppino Di Capri comes from a family of musicians. At the age of 16 he participated in the television programme "Primo Applauso" with the band "the Rockers". Peppino Di Capri won the contest. In the fall of 1957 Peppino and the Rockers went to Milan, recorded their first LP and went back home. A few months later, their first album was published: it was an LP with ten songs. In 1958, the first extended-play record reached the first positions. Songs such as "Freve", "Nun è peccato", "Roberta" belong to the history of Italian melodious music. And his singles St. Tropez Twist, Melancholie and Roberta graced the charts all around Europe in 1963, 1965 and 1972 respectively. In 1973 Peppino won San Remo Festival and is now more than ever appreciated both in Italy and abroad. We owe him respect and gratitude for giving us the most known Italian songs and for having followed three generations of Italians. [Notes from the Official 1991 Programme by RAI]
