I have a huuuge collection of exotica.Basically there are three known records I don't have.,and some nobody knows about.So I have all the great budget label classics Robert Drasnin,The Surfmen,"Kapu" (Original stereo on the British Eros label.),what have you.
One I have is the "Mondo Cane" album listed here.' & Other Horror Music

Actually the "sequels" . have more interesting soundtracks.I think I have most of those.

Hi Rhett,
At the time Mondo Cane was released, I was a record store retailer in
Manhattan. I knew the executives of the United Artists label ( 729 Seventh
Avenue ) well & on a personal level. I would very often hear complaints
about counterfitting.

I'm a long-time lurker that has finally come up with something
sufficiently puzzling to put forth:
I've acquired United Artists UAS 5105, the Original Motion Picture Sound
Track Album of Mondo Cane LP. The jacket as well as the label
proclaim STEREO. It isn't.
The LP plays as if the pressing plant got a full-track tape, played it
back stereo on a machine that was horribly out of azimuth. The time
alignment is 0.1ms off. Yea, I can correct this, but it isn't
particularly stable either. So, trying to shift the timing,
correct for level differences doesn't make for a particularly good L+R
mono mix.
Is the Mondo Cane soundtrack album known to be dismal? Do I possibly
have a badly done counterfeit?
