I Solisti Di Armando Trovajoli
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Circa 1950, four musicians orbiting the RAI orchestra in Rome had what they later described as "a brilliant idea": to name their group using the initials of their own names. From Maurizio Majorana (bass), Antonello Vannucchi (Hammond organ and piano), Roberto Podio (drums and percussion), and Carlo Pes (guitar) emerged "I Marc 4…
Stroboscopica Vol. 3
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. The Hammond organ holds a chord. The drummer waits. And then - a groove so immediate, so perfectly constructed, that it feels like it has always existed, just waiting to be discovered. This is the paradox of Italian library music: composed for anonymity, destined for something greater.
Twenty tracks from the shadow zone of Italia…
Mondi Caldi Di Notte
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Before the psychedelic freakout, before the heavy riffs of Distortions, there was the sweat and shimmer of European nightlife - and Armando Sciascia was its house composer. Mondi Caldi Di Notte gathers twenty-four tracks from the mondo sexy documentaries that Sciascia scored in the early 1960s, drawing from the archives of his ow…
Morphine Mambo Jazz Club
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities. Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. What happens when you crack open the vaults of Britain's oldest music library and let the smoke drift in? Morphine Mambo Jazz Club answers that question with eighteen cuts of mid-century tension: music conceived in dimly-lit studios for purposes no one fully remembers, now resurrected as a document of a peculiarly British form o…
Nell'Anno della Luna
A deep mystery surrounds both the film Nell'anno della Luna and its beguiling 1970 soundtrack, a work that hovers somewhere between the elegant swing orchestrations of an earlier era and the more adventurous sonic territories being charted by Italian composers at the close of the 1960s. Even in our current age of instant information and exhaustive online databases, almost nothing is known about the movie itself. What remains is the music: ten tracks of remarkable sophistication and inventiveness…
La Conquista di Luna
In July 20, 1969, as Neil Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface, an Italian pianist and composer named Luciano Michelini was completing work on one of the most extraordinary documents of that moment's cultural impact: La Conquista Di Luna, an imaginary soundtrack to humanity's greatest adventure. There was no film. There would never be a film. What Michelini created instead was something rarer and more enduring: a sonic fantasy of space exploration that captured the wonder, mystery, and optim…
Phase 6 Super Stereo - Introducing The Alternative Italian B-Movie Soundtrack
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Electric harpsichord cascades over thunderous drum breaks. Fuzz guitar tears through blistering psychedelic workouts. Bossa nova rhythms collide with proto-disco grooves. This is Phase 6 Super Stereo, the fifth entry in Plastic Records' excavation of Italian library music archives and one of the most sonically adventurous compila…
Masoch Club Entertainment
Hammond organs swirl through sun-drenched compositions. Wah-wah guitars dance with bossa nova rhythms. Edda Dell'Orso's ethereal vocals drift over psychedelic instrumentals. This is Masoch Club Entertainment, one of the finest compilations ever issued by Plastic Records - a swinging assemblage of mod numbers, funky groovers, and jazzed-up instrumentals that collectively define the sound of Italian easy listening at its most sophisticated. Compiled by Dave Masoch with liner notes by Michael Myers…
Exotic Themes For Films, Radio And TV
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. The name I Gres encodes its own membership roster: the G stands for organist Giorgio Carnini, the R for maestro Roberto Pregadio, the E for drummer Enzo Restuccia, and the S for guitarist Silvano Chimenti, the group's driving force and de facto leader. Together they formed one of the most sought-after studio ensembles in the Ital…
Kaleidoscopica
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Listen closely. That grinding, mechanical rhythm isn't a machine - it's a drum kit filtered through the imagination of a composer who's been asked to score "industry" and has decided to make it swing. This is library music at its most conceptually strange: music about work, about factories, about the texture of modern life, playe…
Stroboscopica
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Call it psychedelic. Call it lounge. Call it beat, or jazz-funk, or something that doesn't have a name yet. The truth is, no single word captures what happens when four Italian studio musicians lock into a groove at 10 AM, knowing their work will soundtrack a car commercial, a crime drama, or a soft-core feature they'll never se…
Spectrum: Thrilling 60's Film Noir Themes
Lucky restock. Spectrum is not a compilation so much as a séance. Plastic Records has gathered sixteen tracks that collectively summon the nocturnal soul of an era when jazz, pop, and cinematic ambition collided in recording studios from London to Los Angeles, from Havana to Harlem. The title promises film noir themes, but the truth is more expansive: this is the sound of sophisticated menace distilled into three-minute doses, music that belongs equally to smoke-filled jazz clubs and Technicolor…
Piombo Rovente
Lucky restock. A Journey Into The 70's Italian Police! Screeching tyres on rain-slicked Roman cobblestones. A Fiat 131 careening through Trastevere at midnight. The dull thud of a silenced Beretta. And underneath it all, the relentless pulse of wah-wah guitar, pounding drums, and funky flute lines that refuse to let go.
Piombo Rovente captures the sonic DNA of Italy's most visceral cinematic era: the poliziottesco. These were films born from the "Years of Lead"—a nation caught between political …
Dramatest 1974
Absolute music composed for keyboards whose sounds have been processed to obtain particular effects, timbres, and soundscapes. That phrase, clinical and precise, barely hints at the strange beauty of Dramatest, a 1974 collaboration between two of Italian library music's most inventive figures: the Florentine jazz pianist Oscar Rocchi (working here under his pseudonym Chiarosi) and the Milanese polymath Fabio Fabor. Originally released on Fonovideo, one of several sublabels operated by Fabor's ow…
Mr. Diabolicus - Mr. Mysterious
Among the countless composers who populated the Italian library music scene of the 1970s, Fabio Fabor remains a figure shrouded in genuine mystery. Born Fabio Borgazzi in Milan in 1920, he pursued classical training at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory before building a parallel career that encompassed opera, symphonic works, chamber music, and popular song. His compositions were interpreted by some of the most beloved voices in Italian music, including Fred Buscaglione, Nilla Pizzi, and Nicola Ar…
I Gres Vol. III (LP)
Rare Original! By 1975, I Gres had established themselves as one of the most consistently exciting groups in the Italian library music scene. Their first two volumes, released on Globevision and Gemelli, had demonstrated a remarkable range, moving fluidly between hard-hitting funk, atmospheric bossa nova, blues-rock workouts, and cinematic mood pieces. For their third and final album, the group expanded both their sonic palette and their compositional team, bringing in Salvatore Lo Turco as an a…
