Donovan Set for Celebratory Rome Concert to Mark 60th Anniversary of Debut Album (EXCLUSIVE)
Donovan is set for a 60th anniversary concert in Rome, where he will perform popular ’60s songs such as 'Mellow Yellow' and 'Catch the Wind.'
Donovan added that he thought about this a lot while making “The Tale of the Gael,” his two-hour recitation/ photographic history of the ‘60s music revolution that he recently released exclusively on Variety and then on his website. Donovan has close ties to Italy, where he was honored last March for his contribution to Franco Zeffirelli’s “Brother Sun, Sister Moon” as the composer of the recorded songs for the film’s English version. A restored version of “Brother Sun, Sister Moon” screened in Rome’s Quirinale Palace for Italian President Sergio Mattarella and a select group of officials, as well as in Florence, the late Zeffirelli’s birthplace, where the Zeffirelli Foundation held a free screening open to the public attended by a copious contingent of Franciscan monks.
