PLEASE NOTE: Item is located in Italy, therefore wait for the final invoice to get actual shipping costs to the US, thanks.


Original 1977 EDIPAN label STEREO 1st pressing, cat#. MPS 3015, Italy.
One of the most elusive Italian Library records on the Edi-Pan label. An inspired musical interpretation of mid '70s young America with spacey Funk/Breaks and strung-out Italian sounds of the period.

An Italian Funk Library classic we have been pride to reissue this year.
What we have here is another Remigio Ducros and Luciano Simoncini (Arawak, Jason Black, etc) sure shot! Fantastic record for those who are into the classic Simoncini/Ducros sound. Very reminiscent of the "Accadde A.." and Jason Black recordings. What you can expect are tightly knitted and compressed drums, stoned flute sections, shouting horns, Fender Rhodes Piano, heavy basslines and that signature spacey Wah Wah guitar that's on all of the earlier Simoncini recordings. As with many of the Ducros and Simoncini recordings, it seems to be a geographical tour of America, and shows their take on our culture at the time. Variations on the Sgambetto - Sgambata theme / stoned "Accadde A.." flute / Hip-Hop beats / 'popping' percussion / Fender bass / rhodes e-piano etc. Daniela Casa is probably the girl playing all the Wah Wah and cosmic Fuzz distortions.  GREAT for DJs!

No boring tracks on this F A N T A S T I C LP, a pure delight from beginning to the end! Starts with KILLER Fender Funk Rhodes of "BUS STOP" with great heavy bass. Follow on the same side "MAWIL", romantic Lounge and "MAGNOLIA BOULEVARD", breaking Hip-Hop Funky, spacey! More deep Funk tunes on "SUBWAYS", dark flute theme "FLUTING" and clipped Funky guitar from "CONEY ISLAND". Side B starts with lovely Cinematic Score "CIGAR'S FACTORY" where is probably the Alessandroni's famous whistle followed by fantastic fluting Jazz-Funk "FRISCO".  Funky flutes on "NIAGARA FALLS" and Daniela Casa's MENTAL Fuzz/Experimental distortions on "NIGROS". More Jazzy Lounge Funky on the rest of the album, simply OUSTANDING!
