Ultimo Tango a Parigi
The soundtrack for “Last Tango in Paris” (1972), composed by Argentine saxophonist Gato Barbieri, is one of the most iconic works in cinematic history, perfectly capturing the emotions and themes of this controversial masterpiece by Bernardo Bertolucci.

Waiting for Your Return: A Shidaiqu Anthology 1927-1952, Pt. I
Shidaiqu literally means "songs of the era", a term used to describe a hybrid musical genre that first began permeating through the cosmopolitan city of Shanghai in the late 1920s. Blending western pop, jazz, blues and Hollywood-inspired film soundtracks with traditional Chinese elements, the shidaiqu represented a musical and cultural merging that would go on to shape a golden age of Chinese popular song & film in the pre-communism interwar period.
Waiting for Your Return brings together a wide…

Kokotsu No Sekai
Clear Purple Vinyl. Although Ike Reiko was a mere 17 years of age when she recorded 1971's Kokotsu No Sekai, she was already a star in the world of Japanese erotic movies.
