description
Digitmovies continues to release on CD the film scores from the movies starring the beloved Cinema duo Bud Spencer and Terence Hill.
This time we present the complete soundtrack from the classic Bud Spencer movie Piedone l'africano as the corpulent, but goodheart commissioner Rizzo better known as Piedone.
Third installment in the popular series made of four motion pictures:
Piedone lo sbirro, Piedone ad Honk Kong, Piedone l'africano and Piedone d'Egitto.
This series was highly succesfull at the box office in those times and the popularity of Piedone has reached new levels today thanks to the DVD releases on the market.
This Cd features the complete score by the De Angelis Bros. available for the first time:
infact, while an LP was issued from the first feature Piedone lo sbirro, from Piedone l'africano only a single saw the light of the day back in 1978 on Cinevox label with the track Freedom and Diamonds.
Searching for the original stereo tapes we discovered them in the Cinevox archives:
they were in good conditions after more than one quarter of century and on the papers we found in the boxes there were several annotations and many tracks were marked with LP, so we presume that an album was assembled for release purposes in that year, evidently later cancelled and only one single appeared.
Guido & Maurizio De Angelis have written a nice score based on the adventurous choral theme called Freedom sung by I Charango that we listen on track 1 (the film version) and on track 23 (the single version) often reprised in the score.
Being the movie placed in Africa drum percussions and jungle effects are dominant elements through it;
the Piedone Theme (the actual main titles) appears here on track 2 with a disco arrangment, but the score features various source music like a rock-boogie (tr. 8) and various disco numbers (tr. 7 and 11).
This disc also features as bonus tracks some alternate mix of the main themes.
 
story

Flatfoot was also released as The Knock-Out Cop.
By any name, this Italian crime meller stars Baldwyn Dakile as Bodo, a tough, no-frills police officer.
Determined to bring a gang of drug smugglers to justice, Bodo is ordered to lay off by his superiors.
It's not likely that he will obey orders, of this one can be sure.
The larger-than-life escapades of the "flatfoot" are made palatable by director Stefano Steno's tongue-in-cheek approach to the material.

Cast:
Bud Spencer, Enzo Cannavale, Werner Pochath, Joe Stewardson, Carel Trichardt, Desmond Thompson, Baldwyn Dakile, Dagmar Lassander, Antonio Allocca

Director:
Steno
