Franco Tamponi's splendid soundtrack to Mino
Loy's (aka Donan J. Lee) 1962 original shock-u-mentary Mondo
Sexy di Notte (AKA Mondo Sexuality), which portrayed cabaret
shows from all over the world (although many of the locations
are thought to have been reconstructed in the studio), presenting
an exotic sensuality that once upon a time represented a form
of transgression in the film world, reserved for an adult audience
only.
Also, for the younger listeners perhaps it will be surprising
not to hear the sound of any electronic instrument here... but
this was the era when the orchestra reigned supreme.
Lovingly restored from the original session tapes recorded in
studios in and Rome Milan, where music written by the legends
of the Italian film industry became the soundtracks to the great
Italian films of the day. |
