Bruno Maderna - La Morte Ha Fatto L'Uovo - Limited 140-Gram Orange Colored Vinyl - VINYL LP

The soundtrack of Inch100,000 Dollars for RingoInch, composed by the talented Bruno Nicolai, represents a pillar of the Italian western music scene. This 1965 film, directed by Alberto de Martino, tells the story of Lee Barton (played by Richard Harrison), a gunslinger who returns to his hometown in search of revenge and redemption.

During the shootouts and action scenes, Nicolai adopts pressing rhythms, with drums and brass instruments that increase the viewer's adrenaline. In the more reflective moments, however, the music becomes more intimate, with slow and melancholic me

180gm vinyl LP pressing. Upside Down and Zombie, both released in 1976, were made at the mid-point of an extraordinary three-year purple period during which Fela recorded 24 albums of new material. Upside Down is unusual in that it includes a second lead vocalist, Fela's American friend Sandra Izsadore, who he'd known since touring the US in 1969. Izsadore, a black rights activist, introduced him to the writings of Malcolm X, Angela Davis, Rap Brown, Stokely Carmichael, Huey Newton and other revolutionary thinkers. Fela later credited Izsadore with helping inspire his philosophy of Blackism. Izsadore can take credit for something else, too she affirmed Fela's use of weed. Fela had first smoked in London in 1960 or 1961; during his time with Izsadore, he began to use weed regularly, continuing to do so until the end of his life. InchGo SlowInch was one of several songs Fela recorded which critiqued the consequences of over-rapid urbanization - in this case, traffic jams - using them as a metaphor to describe deeper social breakdowns.
