Fausto Papetti – The Best of Fausto Papetti (13ª Raccolta)

A classic Italian easy-listening compilation from saxophone maestro Fausto Papetti, this 13th volume in the celebrated Raccolta series delivers his signature smooth, sensual instrumental interpretations of contemporary hits and pop standards. Released on Durium (DUC 1049), this pressing captures Papetti’s lush, melodic sax tone backed by polished orchestration — perfect for relaxed evening listening or collectors of European lounge jazz.

Papetti albums are highly collectible, particularly in South Africa where clean Durium imports are less common. This volume includes standout covers such as “Take Five,” “The Dock of the Bay,” “Strangers in the Night,” “Time Is Tight,” and “This Guy’s in Love with You.” A strong addition to any easy-listening, lounge, or vintage instrumental collection.
