Italian Import LP Enjoying Disk Attention
HOLLYWOOD — “Mondo Cane,” the independent Italian film import, is enjoying unusually wide disk notice and exposure. The original music, written by R. Ortolani with English lyrics by Norman Newell, is published in this country by E. B. Marks Music Corp. The motion picture is a Times Film Release.
The score was among the first to be handled here by Bob McCluskey, the local rep for the Marks firm. ‘Mondo Cane’ disk versions include a United Artists original soundtrack LP, plus three UA singles, including a Danny Williams jazz single, and a single, “More,” from the original soundtrack. Other disks are a Martin Denny single and LP (Liberty), Steve Lawrence (Columbia), Della Reese (RCA Victor), Charlie Byrd (Riverside), Clebenoff (Mercury), and a soon to be issued, a jazz version on Cameo-Parkway, and a recording by Katyna Panieri on London Records.
