Enrico Caruso

ENRICO CARUSO
 
 
Enrico Caruso  (25 February 1873 – 2 August 1921) was an Italian operatic tenor.  He sang to great acclaim at the major opera houses of Europe and the Americas, appearing in a wide variety of roles from the Italian and French repertoires that ranged from the lyric to the dramatic.  Caruso also made approximately 260 commercially released recordings from 1902 to 1920.  All of these recordings, which span most of his stage career, remain available today on CDs and as downloads and digital streams.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

But in Allmusic?  Nothing on Certain General either – well, almost nothing.  Eleven albums by Certain General are listed on Allmusic, coming out between 1984 and 2010.  A short review by Richie Unterberger of their first full album, November’s Heat is provided; but this is the only album with an Allmusic rating, and there are just 8 user ratings among the 11 albums.  This is from the website which has as its aim to compile “discographic information on every artist who’s made a record since Enrico Caruso gave the industry its first big boost”.
