À propos de cet audio
Who really killed "Crazy Joe" Gallo? It wasn't Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran as he claimed.
"Sober, he was nothing, but drunk he would blow your head off." That's how Pete the Greek described Carmine "Sonny" DiBiase, the Colombo crime family hitman who'd been terrorizing Manhattan's Little Italy since he was a kid. After beating and robbing a local tailor and doing time in reformatory, Sonny set up operations at the Mayfair Boys Civic and Social Club, an illegal poolroom where he shot and killed his best friend on Christmas day....
A prime suspect of this and other crimes, Sonny went on the lam and off the grid for seven years. He then surrendered himself to police, was tried for murder and sentenced to death. But after a second trial, he walked away a free man - free to kill again.
Joey "Crazy Joe" Gallo and his President Street mob waged a deadly Mafia civil war with the Colombo crime family, and in particular, Carmine "the Snake" Persico. And on that fateful night of April 7, 1972, in a Little Italy restaurant, Gallo was assassinated...by Carmine "Sonny" DiBiasi....
This is the true story of who really whacked "Crazy Joe" Gallo on that fateful night of April 7, 1972.

"Adequate" Mob Exposé
Frank Dimatteo delivers a "guy-at-the-end-of-the-bar" narrative about a mafioso hitman in the Colombo Crime Family - Carmine "Sonny" DiBiase - the assassin of Joey "Crazy Joe" Gallo, among others. The book is filled with apocryphal insider terms like "making his bones" and "going to the mattresses".. obviously aimed at perpetuating the Scorsese-styled mythos that sells books.. but if you set your expectations appropriately, it's entertaining. Co-writer Michael Benson again translates Dimatteo's voice-over style into a readable book, too.. just don't expect "literature".
As to presentation: I was more impressed with Eric Jason Martin as a reader on this project than in other audiobooks that I have heard from him. He displays his typical sibilant and oddly breathless cadence.. but Tantor Audio sound engineers do a much better job dealing with it. After factoring in an evident understanding of the author's intended tone, this is a commendable listening experience.
In toto, 'Mafia Hit Man' rates 6 stars out of 10. As a 'Plus' option, it's a reasonable distraction for a couple of quiet afternoons.. but spend your Credit elsewhere should they ask for one.
