Digitmovies releases for the first time on record Bruno Nicolai's complete score from the movie "Quel gran pezzo della Ubalda tutta nuda e tutta calda" (aka Ubalda, all naked and warm) directed in 1972 by Mariano Laurenti and starring Edwige Fenech, Karin Schubert and noted comedian Pippo Franco. This movie was one of the smash hits at the box office during the season of "Decamerotico" ("Herotic Decameron") movies where every story plays in the medieval era, populated of beautiful little dressed dames and cuckold knights. The score by Bruno Nicolai officially sees the light of day on record for the first time, since it has been released neither on 45 rpm nor 33 rpm records. Our CD release was made possible thanks to the collaboration of the Edipan Archives where the stereophonic master tapes have been kept until today. The score opens with the Main Titles (Tr.1) where, after a serious military fanfare prelude a funny theme for the knight (Pippo Franco) returning from the war is introduced and later reprised in the score with several variations of ancient flavour, but with Beat arrangements. For the character of Ubalda (Edwige Fenech) Bruno Nicolai has composed a sweet love theme (Tr.7,Tr.17,Tr.19), whose version for big orchestra and choir is presented in Tr.9 (the theme is identical to "C'era una volta" from the movie "Zenabel" of 1969, of which we have recreated the new edit exactly as appears in "Quel gran pezzo della Ubalda tutta nuda e tutta calda"). Bruno Nicolai has written a theme a Capella with mixed choir used in the "Finale" of the film (Tr.23) that has varied in acoustic way in Tr.2 and Tr.15. At the end of our CD we also enclosed the unused alternate "Finale" both the instrumental (Tr.24) and the choir version (Tr.25). Limited edition compact disc - 8 full colour pages de-luxe booklet.
