Information about the Song
Charles Frank Mangione urodził się w Rochester w stanie Nowy Jork. On i jego brat Gap liderowali grupie The Jazz Brothers, która nagrała trzy płyty dla wytwórni Riverside Records. Równocześnie Chuck uczył się w Eastman School of Music (1958-1963). Później dołączył do zespołu Jazz Messengers, kierowanego przez Arta Blakeya. Pierwszy większy sukces odniósł dzięki przebojowi „Bellavia” (1975), który przyniósł mu nagrodę Grammy w kategorii „najlepsza kompozycja instrumentalna”.
Za soundtrack do filmu „The Children of Sanchez” (1978), z Anthony Quinnem w roli głównej, Mangione otrzymał swą drugą nagrodę Grammy (1979).
