Alberto Baldan Bembo - The Smart Set


Alberto Baldan Bembo - The Smart Set
Label - Right Tempo/Easy Tempo
Released - 1998
Style - Funk, Jazz, Lounge, Easy Listening, Soundtrack, Tropical, Music Library, Lee Library

From Dusty Groove:
A beautiful bit of 70's grooviness from one of our favorite Italian composers! This set brings together 2 extremely rare soundtracks by the great Alberto Baldan Bembo, and they're both a fantastic mix of Fender Rhodes piano, vibes, wah wah guitar, and stunningly sensuous orchestrations. All of the tracks are more lively than the ones on the other Bembo reissue we've stocked, but they're no less captivating, and have the kind of haunting quality that makes the best of these Italian 70's sessions so great. Titles include Tropical Club", "Samoa", "Trop's", "Tema Di Nadia", "Carmen Blues", "Gonzales Go", "Abat Jour", and "Tema Di Barbara". Excellent stuff, and one of the best Italian releases of the year!

Now THIS is how I remember Shopping Mall music, and Canadian FM stations (light instrumentals). I could handle a dozen CDs like this.
