Another musician from Naples, Antonio "Toni" Esposito is an ever present guest in many 70's albums by artists from that city. He played with neapolitan artists like singer-songwriter Edoardo Bennato, his brother the folk-researcher Eugenio Bennato, Alan Sorrenti (on his first three albums), Luciano Cilio and on first Saint Just LP, then also appeared on other Italian artists' records such as Francesco Guccini, Francesco De Gregori, Perigeo and international names like Shawn Phillips and Don Cherry.
Starting as a drummer he slowly evolved as an inventive percussionist, well-known in Italy for his use of any kind of home tools as a musical instrument. His solo albums are mainly jazz-rock oriented, mostly instrumentals and with Toni's percussions in evidence, but his production level has gone worse in later records, always in a more commercial way.
