In Italy ,back in those years, " Studio 1" was the most popular Saturday Tv night show of all times, usually with an exceptional cast of national and international stars. So the choice of a still unknowns 17 years-old teenager named Rita Pavone with for a ten minutes weekly act within each show, was utterly revolutionary. At first, certain critics didi not like the idea, but after the first show, they quickly changed their mind.
Rita's impact on the public was simple staggering, so that from one day to the other, " a new star was born", or ,if you prefer, " the new international talk of the town ". A real phenomenon.
Infact, only three months later, Rita will be presented by RCA Italiana, her first "Goolden Record " for 1 million sold record only in Italy.
