We’ve rarely listened to anything funkier by Alessandroni. Walking the line between disco and jazz-funk, our beloved Maestro penned the two irresistibly groovy gems in this release slightly before his blaxploitation-inspired soundtrack to “Sangue di sbirro”, and there are indeed similarities here – the horn and rhythm sections, as well as pianist Enrico Pieranunzi’s jazz phrasing. Taken from the soundtrack to an obscure 1975 Italian film, Elio Bartolini’s L’ALTRO DIO, these two instrumentals might have remained in oblivion were it not that Four Flies rescued and included them in the compilations ESTERNO NOTTE and ESTERNO GIORNO, both of which sold out quickly and have become almost impossible to find. It seemed more than proper now to release them for the first time ever on 7” – perhaps the format which best suits them – as part of our Four Flies 45s series of rare Italian grooves.
Brand new, never played, unsealed
