About "Io ero Sandokan" by Armando Trovajoli
With 'Io ero Sandokan,' Trovajoli conjures exoticized adventure—tribal percussion, bold horns, and a swaggering melody. The title’s confession ('I was Sandokan') lands like a faded poster: heroic on the surface, but shadowed by the melancholy of a legend outliving his own jungle.
