Sooooo trashyyyyy !!!!!
Would like to have a CD of this terrific selection
They nodded their heads, wiggled a bit or danced to:
Azimuth: FITTIPALDI SHOW - my current personal fave, a fast bongodriven counterespionage/mid 70's action movie soundalike stormer with revving motorcycle/automobile sound effects. A killer.
Trio Motoco: XAMEGA DE INA - from Brazil, bongos & rhythm
Soulstaces: MUTANTES - crowdpleaser from the Break & Bossa vol 3 comp
Gak Sato: TWIST DRAMA - cult weirdo percussion and shake sounds
Anubian nights: NAZI BAR - recent rather odd dance hybrid with oriental and 70's krautrock elements
DD Sound: SHOPPING BABY - mesmerizingly good/awful eurodisco
I Marc 4: DISTORTION MIND - throbbing electronic rhythms from 1973
Tamba Varig: MESTRE BIMBA - apparently Italian-made Brazilian boogie
Bernard Gerald: LE CROCODILE PORTE-CLÈ - culty percussive underground pre-disco club anthem
Carlo Savinas: THE 2 KENNEDYS - more bongo stuff
The 3 Degrees: THE GOLDEN LADY - too obvious but fun Shirley Bassey James Bond disco pastiche from a totally useless film of the same name
CHOCOLAT'S: EL CARAVANIERO - Tom Moulton version mixed with the vocal original
Ronie e Central Do Brazil: ATOA ATOA - sharp brass and meaty bass
Sphinx/Alec R Costandinos: JUDAS ISCARIOT - with Amanda Lear's Follow Me and some Watch Out For The Boogie Man.
Sooooo trashyyyyy !!!!!

Originally Azimuth's "Fittipaldi Show" belongs to the brazilian sound-track The Fabulous Fittipaldi, 1973, with a speedy piano probably played by Marcos Valle. The film talks about the life of the Formula One pilot Emerson Fittiplaidi until 1972. Curiously this sound-track has another instrumental song called "Rindt". Rindt was another Formula One pilot (unhappily he had a fatal accident) and Fittipaldi admired him a lot.
.
Yep, and I love it how one gets to hear the driver talk briefly on the intro before the track rockets off - wrooooom! This record is so amazing, right up there with Roy Budd's Get Carter theme, Isaac Hayes's and Lalo Schifrin's best stuff and the coolest from Cinecittá. So, there's another instrumental on the soundtrack album - that piece of information makes it clear one must get the lp no matter what. - Talking of Formula 1 watch out for Finland's Kimi Raikkonen, he looks like and has the presence of a lumbering zombie ( only with a model girlfriend ) but this guy sure can drive!
