Beware The Eyes of The Beholder
Santa Esmeralda - The Wages of Sin (part 1) (1978) (buy)
Santa Esmeralda - Danse de la Beaute (part 2) (1978) (buy)
Maxing out on ghoulishness this Tuesday evening, these couple of tracks find a group of 70's French disco producers getting their French touch all over sounds ranging from flamenco, horror scores, cop show tv themes and everything in between. Aside from the Edgar Allen Poe heartbeats check out the squashed cymbals on the second track.
Apologies that these get chopped off a little early - the first side of the record essentially runs together as one long disco suite and I was just trying to dole out a little taste. The full side is available to those interested in further sinning.
