Chuck Mangione


Frank Charles "Chuck" Mangione (pronuncia-se / mændʒioʊni / ; 29 de novembro de 1940) é um instrumentista americano que toca flugelhorn e compositor que alcançou o sucesso internacional em 1977 com o seu jazz-pop single, " Feels So Good ". Mangione lançou mais de trinta álbuns desde 1960.

Não tenho muito o que falar sobre ele mas ele é um artista muito consistente. Tem uma rádio em Tampa, FL, a Smooth Jazz WSJT que se orgulha de tocar todos os dias e mais de uma vez a música "Feels so god" que é a minha favorita dele. A música tem solos incríveis e uma evolução fantástica e um solo de guitarra primoroso.
