La moglie di mio padre

Digitmovies continues to travel through the world of erotic movies Italian style by releasing on CD for the first time complete and in full stereo the OST by the brothers Guido & Maurizio De Angelis from the movie “La moglie di mio padre” (aka “Confessions of a Frustated Housewife”) directed in 1976 by Andrea Bianchi and starring Carroll Baker, Adolfo Celi, Jenny Tamburi, Cesare Barro, Luigi Pistilli, Femi Benussi, Gabriella Giorgelli. For his remarriage Antonio Lendini (Celi), a rich industrialist from Northern Italy, has married Laura (Baker), a very beautiful and young woman. When Claudio (Barro), the son of the businessman, returns, a short-spanned relationship between the young man and the stepmother is born which will suffice for the woman to acquire the knowledge of her own personality and rights. When Claudio leaves, Laura goes away. The husband searches for her and implores her to come back to him, but she refuses. Antonio does not accept the prospect of remaining alone forever and he kills her while the woman is skiing on a mountain. This CD represents a music rarity for all the fans of the mythic Guido & Maurizio De Angelis considering the fact that, whereas in Germany in 1976 only one track called "Tema di Laura" was printed as side B of the 45 rpm single RCA TBBO 1242 (side B contained “Orzowei”), thanks to the stereo master tapes of the original recording session we could now assemble 44:06 of music. The authors have composed an OST where a recurring romantic waltz-like motif for the female protagonist is introduced in the "Titoli di testa" (Tr.1) with Beguine arrangement and then reprised in experimental form (Tr.2). It gets more airy and fast with accordion (Tr.5, Tr.13,Tr.15) and is alternated with melancholic passages of solo piano (Tr.6, Tr.12), with dance floor music for the night club scene (Tr.9) and noir motifs with a Giallo flavour (Tr.3,Tr.10).
