Nancy & Lee Again
The four years that elapsed between Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood's initial album of duets released in 1968 and the follow-up, Nancy & Lee Again, which arrived in 1972, saw a lot of change for the duo. Sinatra's star faded and she gradually retreated from the spotlight, while Hazlewood moved to Sweden and cut a series of albums that weren't exactly popular or well received. Both of them were looking for two things: to reconnect with an old friend and to possibly squeeze out another hit. Althou…

Set in Milan, mostly in darkly and oppressively photographed suburbs, the film is the tale of some young girls who end up in prostitution, both on the street and uptown.

Get Carter: Expanded
"This is the soundtrack to Get Carter (1971), the all-time classic British gangster flick starring Michael Caine and directed by Mike Hodges.

Utopia
At long last, one of the great holy grails of Italian library music falls into our hands via Sonor Music Editions, Sandro Brugnolini's masterpiece, "Utopia", originally pressed in a tiny run by Gemelli in 1972, and heralded by collectors ever since as one of the greatest free-standing gestures in the entire genre. Threaded with deep lounge inspired grooves and jazzy funkiness that rest on the foundations of refined, avant-garde orchestration, it's drenched in the gauzy haze of '70s and almost im…
