La Strega In Amore
An ancient Roman house holds a terrible secret. Dust, old books and a morbid and veiled eroticism. Before devoting his career to the so-called cinema civile (political cinema), Damiano Damiani directed his most obscure and mysterious film, a jewel of the contemporary Italian Gothic style. Based on the short novel 'Aura' by Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes, the film is enhanced by the interpretations of the very sensual Rosanna Schiaffino and a young Gian Maria Volonté during the years of his debut …
Ti Ho Sposato Per Allegria
“Ti Ho Sposato Per Allegria” (1967) is a comedy directed by Luciano Salce, taken from the theatrical play of the same name (1965) by Natalia Ginzburg. The main characters are Pietro and Giuliana, respectively interpreted by Giorgio Albertazzi and Monica Vitti. A lawyer from a good family, serious, accustomed to a calm and regular life who got married to a indolent and dazed girl with a difficult past a month after meeting her at a party. Despite Giuliana's inability to transform herself into a g…
Mondo Cane
*2024 stock* "Riz Ortolani, an Italian composer of dozens of film scores, whose Grammy-winning instrumental melody featured in the 1962 film “Mondo Cane” evolved into “More,” the celebrated anthem of love covered by sensuous crooners around the globe, died on Jan. 23 at his villa outside Rome. He was 87. At home in a variety of musical styles and moods — jaunty humor, buzzing suspense, lush romanticism — Mr. Ortolani was among Italy’s busiest film composers for almost half a century, working in …
Raks Raks Raks (27 Golden Garage Psych Nuggets From The Iranian 60s Scène)
This compilation simply needs to be heard to be believed. Who knew that a psychedelic beat garage scene thrived in the pre-revolution Iran of the 1960s? As revealed herein, artists such as Googoosh and Kourosh and groups such as the Littles, the Flowers, and the Golden Ring did their best to muster echoes of the Shadows, the Ventures, the Beatles, and the Stones, delivering their lyrics in poetic Persian and keeping plenty of reverb on those rocking lead guitar riffs. With tons to discover on th…
Anima POP – Music From Estonian Animations 1965-1986
This is a compilation of (mainly instrumental) music from 1960-80s Estonian animated films. In the mid1970s, when Tallinnfilm animation studios recruited a youthful bunch of skilled artists and cartoonists, interesting things started to happen. Contemporary themes and ironic depictions of domestic life were introduced into Estonian animation – as well as pop-art aesthetics and even psychedelic imagery.
Also, composers found their chance to exercise something beyond the routine standards of pop a…
Der Würger vom Tower
Cult jazz soundtrack to supernatural Soho strangler epic by Swiss electronic pioneer held captive since 1966.
Sexarama
In 1962, the world was buzzing with significant cultural and historical events. The Cuban Missile Crisis, a tense confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, had the entire globe on edge as the threat of nuclear war loomed large. On July 3, 1962, Algeria declared its independence from France after an eight-year war for independence. Meanwhile, the iconic musician Bob Dylan released his debut album, "Bob Dylan," which would go on to have a lasting impact on the music industry an…
Heaven Is Better Than This: A Jamaican Gospel Mixtape
A slightly revised & edited take of Death Is Not The End's Jamaican Gospel special for NTS Radio, originally broadcast for the station back in late 2016. A dusty heap of JA gospel from the 60s and early 70s. Split across two sides - all vinyl and all 45s - played through a touch of delay pedal with crackle aplenty.

Les Idoles
Les Idoles is a mythical record of sixties psych rock prefiguring punk. A work which in style had no equivalent in France at the time. Thanks to the performance of the Rollsticks, a rock band created from scratch with musicians from different musical worlds, to accompany the erratic vocalizations of actors Pierre Clémenti, Bulle Ogier, and Jean-Pierre Kalfon. The band consists of Patrick Greussay (later of Calcium) on the drums and guitars, Stephane Vilar (later of Calcium, PLVG), Didier Léon (f…
The Avengers: Original Tara King Season Score
*2024 stock* "Mention The Avengers to people above a certain age - let’s be kind and say over 40 - and the famous Laurie Johnson theme music will get mentioned almost immediately. It’s as much about the show’s iconic status as Steed’s bowler hat or Mrs Peel’s fab outfits - all Biba and Quant.
But as with all the best spy shows of the 1960s - and the strike rate was amazingly high - the music wasn’t just about having a great opening theme. Incidental scores also played a major role in developing …
The Devil Rides Out - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
*2024 stock* 1"‘The Devil Rides Out’ is a 1968 Hammer horror film. The score, by James Bernard, perfectly amplifies the film’s scary nature, moving from sparse string and woodwind arrangements, emphasising the creepy bits, to full on orchestral power to aid the film’s more dramatic, edge-of-the-seat moments." - normanrecords.com
Assignment Kirchin
Two killer scores by Basil Kirchin, both from the late 1960s, both unreleased until now. Assignment K - a spy film and The Strange Affair, a rather sleazy London crimmy underworld thing. Classic, jazzy, weird, the usual expected unexpected Kirchin with an unreleased song too! Superb!!!!!

Live 1969/70
*2023 stock* This 11-track live compilation, assembled from various venues including German television ("Kick Out the Jams") and Detroit's Grande Ballroom in 1969 and New York City in 1970, offers slightly better sound than has been heard on some of the other MC5 archival material that started surfacing in the 1990s. But that's not to say that it plays in any way like an official release -- Rob Tyner's vocals have a problem competing with the guitars of Fred "Sonic" Smith and Wayne Kramer, but s…
