This Italian\nscore is sort of a Holy Grail for fans of the spaghetti sound, especially thanks to the\nlegendary track \"Psicolimite\".\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1973, a mysterious 45 rpm single surfaced under the name ‘Sharon Chatam e la sua\nOrchestra.’ The single seemed to be a harmless cover of the theme from Last Tango in Paris,\ncomplete with a typical image from the film. But behind the innocent facade, a secret was\nhidden: the B-side track, “Psicolimite,” was actually the main theme from Rivelazioni. When\nsomeone in the United States figured this out and realized the ‘Sharon Chatam’ moniker\nwas a pseudonym for Reverberi and his team, the price of the record skyrocketed, making it\na coveted collectible.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis makes the discovery of the full soundtrack even more exciting, considering that the\nmusic Reverberi composed for the infamous film by Renato Polselli - one of the most\noutrageous and uncompromising Italian genre cinema directors - was thought to be lost\nforever, perhaps vanished into the depths of some film processing lab. But thanks to the\nsleuths at Four Flies, this enigmatic masterpiece has been resurrected and presented in all\nits glory. It's available now as a luxurious gatefold double LP with original artwork by the\nbrilliant Eric Adrian Lee.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the film, despite some critics praising it as “psychotronic,” is a bizarre mishmash of\nrambling pseudo-psychoanalytic theories and sexual deviance voyeurism, the music stands\nout as a foremost, vital element, able to exist on its own.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReverberi’s reputation as a serious, refined producer (for artists like Lucio Dalla, Gino Paoli,\nLuigi Tenco, and many more), however, led him to keep his distance from exploitation films\nlike Rivelazioni. To maintain his image, he had his friend and former schoolmate Umberto\nCannone take credit for the score – a tactic he also used for Polselli's next film, Mania\n(1974).\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut this anonymity might have unexpectedly increased his creative freedom, for the score\nhe put together and recorded is experimental, at times raw, and driven by a relentless\nrhythm section where bass and drums lay down the groove. The use of electronic\ninstruments is impressive for the time, with drum machines and spacey synths creating a\ndark and dreamlike atmosphere. Psychedelic flutes, piano phrases, crazed percussion,\nfilters, compressors, and jazzy improvisations on sax and vibraphone complete the mix.\nThe full soundtrack was recovered following the discovery of the original 1-inch, 16-track\ntapes, which were transferred, mixed, and mastered for optimal listening on both vinyl and\ndigitally, with the digital version featuring 8 bonus tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGatefold 2LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVery first release of Gianfranco Reverberi's hidden masterpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemastered from original analog tapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n FLIES 71 -Artist-Gianfranco Reverberi\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailability: Pre-Order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: 2LP Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 5 business days for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gianfranco Reverberi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53427965952184,"sku":"A0VIWW-O001-9E","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/gianfranco-reverberi-rivelazioni-di-uno-psichiatra-sul-mondo-perverso-del-sesso_PZT9o.jpg?v=1777678366","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/gianfranco-reverberi-rivelazioni-di-uno-psichiatra-sul-mondo-perverso-del-sesso","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
