Sdtk. to Russ Meyer's "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" - The Smell of Female (1966)

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to violence, the word and the act. While violence cloaks itself in a plethora of disguises, its favorite mantle still remains ... sex. Violence devours all it touches, its voracious appetite rarely fulfilled. Yet violence doesn't only destroy, it creates and molds as well. Let's examine closely then this dangerously evil creation, this new breed encased and contained within the supple skin of woman. The softness is there, the unmistakable smell of female, the surface shiny and silken, the body yielding yet wanton. But a word of caution: handle with care and don't drop your guard. This rapacious new breed prowls both alone and in packs, operating at any level, any time, anywhere, and with anybody. Who are they? One might be your secretary, your doctor's receptionist ... or a dancer in a go-go club!

Jack Palance - Hannah (1970)

A potpourri of songs that have nothing to do with each other. But I like this stuff.

Lawrence Hilton Jacobs was NOT a bad singer. His team made his first solo record pretty good. Especially compared to John Travolta, who recorded nothing but dreck. Later shows, I play "Larry's Theme" which really shines.

SAHB ( Sensational Alex Harvey Band) were raw but also sophisticated. Their lyrics were just much better than other acts of the time. Sometimes it was hard to glean their meaning, but "Hot City Symphony" is fantastic.
