'LA POLIZIA NON PUO' INTERVENIRE' - This is a record of rare beauty that collects the soundtrack of a 1975 film called 'Drugged Rome: The Police Can't Intervene' (aka 'Hallucination Strip') directed by Lucio Marcaccini. The soundtrack was written by Albert Verrecchia, a French composer who came to Italy in the 1960s and formed the group I Pyranas, with whom he recorded two albums released by Arc. In the 1970s Verrecchia devoted himself mainly to making soundtracks, including the one presented here. Unlike other soundtrack composers, Verrecchia preferred electric sounds to orchestral arrangements. This disc contains interesting tracks in rock and blues styles, with some psychedelic influences. Musicians featured on the record include Cyan, Baba Yaga, Toni Esposito, and singer Sammy Barbot (whom we may remember best as the host of two 1980s TV shows, 'Piccolo Slam' and 'Popcorn'). Singer Edda Dell'Orso, with her soprano voice, also appears on two tracks. In short, a unique record in the panorama of soundtracks.

Also available: ROMA DROGATA O.S.T. (CD), ROMA DROGATA O.S.T. (2LP/COL) (LP).
