Нико Фиденко

Nico Fidenco is an Italian singer and film soundtrack composer who gained considerable popularity from 1960 onwards with the release of the song What a sky, taken from the film Silver Spoon Set by Francesco Maselli. Self-taught in music, Fidenco did a few cover versions of film title songs for the Italian market. With the song Legata a un granello di sabbia, he was the first Italian singer to sell one million copies of a single. This interest in cinema led him to be a prolific soundtrack composer, including scores for westerns and many Joe D'Amato films.
