Soundtrack to one of the many "mondo" films of the 60's. This time focusing on some of the odd and strange female activities that go on (or went on) in the world.
"Emanuelle Nera" was the first of many erotic films starring the beautiful Laura Gemser as the globetrotting journalist/photographer Emanuelle. The soundtrack by Nico Fidenco is a classic of sleazy listening and is appropriately sexy and exotic. More "Emanuelle" soundtracks to come if you guys enjoy it.
This is the first post on the blog from Francesco De Masi. It's for the 1967 thriller "Your Turn To Die" and has a spy-jazz feel to most of it. It features some nice groovy numbers as well as a few vocals. Enjoy! 
A great collection of tracks by the Cordara Orchestra. Led by sleazy listening great Carlo Cordara, of course. Plenty of variety and lots to love on this disc.
My first "poliziotteschi" post comes from 1975's Mark Il Poliziotto. This was the first in a trilogy of "Mark" cop movies. The soundtrack by Stelvio Cipriani is typical of this genre with it's funky main theme (along with it's variations) mixed with some nice slower tempo ones. Enjoy!
"The Body" is the third film in an erotic trilogy directed by Luigi Scattini. The score for the second, "La Ragazza Dalla Pelle Di Luna", can also be found here on the blog. Both are highly recommended.
Breaking away from the Italian soundtracks for a second, here is Alden Shuman's score for the notorious "The Devil In Miss Jones". It was directed by Gerard Damiano, who also directed another adult film you may have heard of - "Deep Throat".
Here we have Patrick Juvet's soundtrack to David Hamilton's erotic film "Laura". It's very similar in sound to Hamilton's "Bilitis", as well "The Story of O" (both of which are found below). It mixes soft, dreamy tracks with uptempo, disco ones to create a very nice listening experience. Enjoy!
Another perfect soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. This score to "Listen, Let's Make Love" as it's also known, has more catchy tunes than you can count. Enjoy!
Mondo Candido is a surreal and comedic take on Voltaire's "Candide". It was directed by the duo Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi who are notorious for their documentaries such as Mondo Cane and Goodbye Uncle Tom. A very nice Ortolani soundtrack with varying styles.
I had a request from "Lumpy" for more from the Japanese Avanz label, so today we have Piero Piccioni's score for 1969's 'Playgirl '70'. It's a pretty laid back score with some tracks you'll probably recognize from other compilations. Enjoy!
Whether an erotic classic or not (depends on who you ask), "The Story of O", based on the 1954 novel, has an undeniably good soundtrack. Aside from a couple of more upbeat tracks, Pierre Bachalet has created quite a dreamy score, with a terrific main theme. Enjoy!
"L'Assoluto Naturale" (also known as He And She) was an erotic drama starring the lovely Sylva Koscina. The score, both gentle and dramatic, is a beautiful example of what Morricone was doing at the time. It's one of my very favourites by the Maestro and I hope you all enjoy it as well.
