Background
Born in Tortona, Illiani started his musical career as a member of the band Wanted’s between 1962 and 1966.[1] In 1968 he became guitarist in the Gianni Morandi's backing band.[1][2]
In 1970 Illiani adopted the stage name Donatello and entered the competition at the Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Io mi fermo qui", presented in a double performance with the band Dik Dik.[1][2] The same year Donatello got his first commercial success with the song "Malattia d'amore" which charted tenth on the Italian hit parade.[1][3]
Between 1971 and 1973 he entered the main competition at the Sanremo Music Festival three more times, always being a finalist.[1][2] In the same years he got two top ten hits with the songs "Com'è dolce la sera" and "Ti voglio".[3] After the 1974 single "Irene", which he presented at Un disco per l'estate, Donatello left Dischi Ricordi and started pursuing a more personal musical path, characterized by the recovery of traditional sounds.[1][2]
