AMERICA AMORE AMARO Luciano Simoncini & Remigio Ducros

Original 1977 EDIPAN label MPS 3015 - STEREO - 1st pressing
Rare PROMO stamp on rear sleeve - 'PROMOTIONAL PUBLISHING RELEASE'
TOP OF THE TOP ITALIAN LIBRARY LP - Unique Promo version with publisher stamp.
One of the best Italian Library jams on the Edipan label and a true classic of the field - inspired musical interpretation of mid '70s young America with spacey Funk breaks and strung-out Italian sounds of the period. An essential grail and top of the top dusty fingers / music producers / beat makers / crate diggers & Library junkies recording.

Remigio Ducros and Luciano Simoncini (Arawak, Jason Black, etc.) fantastic record for those who are into the classic Simoncini/Ducros sound and generally about vintage Italian Library grooves. 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 groove, heavy basslines and that spacey Wah Wah guitar that's on all of the earlier Simoncini recordings. Variations on the Sgambetto - Sgambata theme from LA PALLA E' ROTONDA / stoned "Accadde A.." styled flute / amazing Hip-Hop beats / 'popping' percussion, Fender bass & piano etc. Daniela Casa is probably the girl behind the Wah Wah effects and cosmic Fuzz distortions. Booming Italian Library production with loads of mellow grooves, samples and inspired beats. GREAT for DJs!

Breathtaking album, a pure delight from the beginning to the end. Starts with KILLER Fender Funk Rhodes of "BUS STOP" with great bassline. Follows on the same side the romantic Lounge "MAWIL", and the spacey Hip Hop Funk tune "MAGNOLIA BOULEVARD" with its hot drum breaks. More deep Funk on "SUBWAYS", the dark flute theme "FLUTING" and the clipped Funky guitars of "CONEY ISLAND". Side B starts with the lovely cinematic theme "CIGAR'S FACTORY" where is probably the Alessandroni's famous whistle followed by the fantastic Jazz-Funk flute "FRISCO". More Funky flutes on the killer "NIAGARA FALLS" and Daniela Casa's mental Fuzzy and Experimental distortions on "NIGROS". More jazzy Lounge & cool Funky arrangements on rest of the album which is easily among the top-notch records of entire Library Music scene. ESSENTIAL LP!
