Carlo Pes, Peppino De Luca, I Marc 4

Holy Grail Alert! This is absolutely the rarest, and probably the best Marc 4 album ever, pressed as a library on Ricordi label (LR 10) in 1970 with the title II Marc 4 per voi, but composed for the original soundtrack of Debito Coniugale; a brilliant comedy directed by Franco Prosperi, and starring Barbara Bouchet and Lando Buzzanca. A truly amazing album, ranging from jazz to bossa nova, from funk to rhythm 'n' blues and psychedelic – all touched with the unique and distinctive sound of I MARC 4, the premier backing band of soloists in the panorama of Italian soundtracks and library music, here accompanied by the vocal work of Edda Dell’Orso as well as the choir, I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni.
An essential record that resonates with that distinctive Italian sound from beginning to end, and which pays tribute to the incredible work of our finest session musicians and creators, rather than of simple executors of a rustproof groove that is not affected by the passage of time. Go South Italy! An absolute must-have for any serious soundtrack collector, and reissued here on vinyl for the very first time!
