Product Description

From Amazon.com

For diehard fans of low-budget cult cinema, Jess Franco is among the great directors--his style somewhere between European versions of Roger Corman's Mondo sexploitation and Andy Warhol's hardcore improv. His films Vampyros Lesbos, The Devil Came from Akasava, and Mrs. Hyde, She Kills in Ecstasy--all made in 1970 and starring Franco's doomed Spanish seductress Soledad Miranda--perfected "horrotica," Franco's melange of B-grade horror and twisted erotica. Collecting original music from the films' soundtracks, Vampyros Lesbos: Sexadelic Dance Party pays tribute to Franco, Miranda (who died in a 1971 car crash), and the films they made together.

German composers Manfred Hubler and Siegfried Schwab (recording as Vampires' Sound Incorporation) created music sufficiently groovy and go-go to accompany Franco's freaked-out vision. Their crazy sounds are a speed-hopped swinger's bash of blaring trumpet, booming trombone, slinky organ, and spacy sitar, with a beefy foundation of mod guitar, bass, and drums. Eccentrically titled instrumentals like "The Lions and the Cucumber," "Droge CX 9," and "The Six Wisdoms of Aspasia" manage to be psychedelic in the way of both the Doors' haunting rock and the Fifth Dimension's up-up-and-away pop. Music ripe for revival, Sexadelic Dance Party falls somewhere between the glorious lounge orchestrations of Esquivel and the cheap Casio-funk porn music championed by bands like the Beastie Boys. It's just one more nugget mined from the overflowing heaps of past decades' trash culture. --Roni Sarig

5.0 out of 5 stars A fang-tastic psyched out soundtrack with a bite!, 2 Aug 2001
Vampyros Lesbos is a soundtrack lifted from a 1970 erotic horror movie, directed by cult Euro trash cinema director,Jess Franco.Featuring a host of German musicians,mainly the legendary Manfred Hubler and Sigfried Schwab,who also sessioned with the Dave Pike Set in the 60s & 70s,play a veritable feast of instruments ranging from twanging psyched out sitars, fender bass, hammond organs, drums and fuzz guitars,eerie voices also add to the psyched out soundscape,in turn creating an incredible audio orgy of groovy beats,swinging psychedelia and go go rythms, perfect for a movie with Franco's bizarre,yet fascinating directorial vision of the female psyche!This ranks as one of my best and most played soundtrack scores in my audio library-its just fantastic!If you love the sounds of funky psychedelia, heavy bass driven beats and strange and haunting sonics,Vampyros Lesbos makes for essential listening. Let this soundtrack sink it s fangs into you, and you will be transformed into a nocturnal groover for all eternity!!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's not as dodgy as it looks, 31 Oct 2002
Well, what can one say? The soundtrack to an Italian 1970s soft porn horror film...it is easy to see why many would overlook this particular release. But to do so would be missing out on what is essentially a humorous and quite brilliant funk-fused, disco-fused, easy listening-fused album.

Most of the songs are instrumental, which is not unusual for a film soundtrack. This means that the lead instruments have strong melodies to compensate, be they sitar, electric piano, trumpet or whatever. There is a huge mix of instruments employed on the album, and each is used to different effect in each different song. For example, "Droge CX9" is a gutsy tune with a big fat bassline and some great brass punches, whereas "There's No Satisfaction" is a laid back psychedelic sitar-driven instrumental take-off of the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction".

If you like the music of the early 70s but aren't after a succession of quickfire pop songs, I don't think you'll be disappointed with this.

Finally, and most importantly, how can anyone pass up the chance to own a song called "The Lion and the Cucumber"?
