Far Out Recordings proudly presents a special Record Store Day 2025 reissue of L’Ora del Cocktail, an exquisite and rare gem by the legendary Italian composer and multi-instrumentalist Alessandro Alessandroni. Originally released in the golden era of Italian library music, L’Ora del Cocktail is a sonic masterpiece that encapsulates the sophistication of mid-century cocktail culture with Alessandroni’s unmistakable flair for magical melody and otherworldly brilliance.

    Renowned for his work on iconic Spaghetti Western scores with Ennio Morricone and his groundbreaking contributions to library music, Alessandroni channels his genius into this album, blending jazz, bossa nova, and lounge music with his signature wordless vocal arrangements and lush instrumentation. Featuring his remarkable talent on guitar, piano, and mandolincello, this album paints a vibrant portrait of 1970s cosmopolitan cool.

    This Record Store Day exclusive reissue has been remastered from the original tapes, offering crystal-clear fidelity while preserving the warm analog charm of the original pressing.

    A must-have for soundtrack enthusiasts, library music collectors, and fans of timeless lounge grooves, L’Ora del Cocktail invites you to rediscover the magic of Alessandro Alessandroni in his element.
