AKA: Il signor Robinson (Italy) (short title)
Robinson jr. (West Germany)
Mr. Robinson (World-wide) (English title)
A dream pursued for years through frantic music searches and rights negotiations, and finally, 3 years after assembling the audio masters, the green light shines upon IL SIGNOR ROBINSON, MOSTRUOSA STORIA D'AMORE E D'AVVENTURA (1976).
Previously AWOL from the discography dedicated to the soundtracks of the Italian cult cinema composed by the legendary Maestro duo Guido & Maurizio De Angelis, this release certifies the quality of the productions attributed to them.
Paolo Villaggio, long-time veteran of Italian comedy and social satire, became deeply involved in the revival of the myth of the noble savage, originally conceived by Daniel Defoe and reinterpreted here by the brilliant actor guided by director Sergio Corbucci, creator of the character Fantozzi. We also find the beautiful Zeudi Araya sporting the curves of a modern-day Friday in a stunning reinterpretation of that inseparable companion of Robinson Crusoe.
Caribbean music, Latin pop sounds, a song as cool and lovely as the summer breeze while admiring the sunset on the beach, tribal-pop rhythms: in short, a masterpiece, a small miracle.
Now available on CD packaged in a jewel case with cardboard slipcase, 16-page booklet with liner notes by Daniele De Gemini, mastering by Claudio Fuiano and layout by Alessio Iannuzzi.
