The Steamy Library 3: Music to Make You Horny
Music that makes you horny? If that's the case, then you'll need to see a psychiatrist, lol. 20 tracks, all library/lounge grooves sans, Georgia Gibbs' 1952's "Kiss of Fire" (pop & tango), and Curt Boettcher's late 60s sunshine-y "Christina, In My Dreams."
My favorite (a big favorite) is Armando Trovaioli's "Angola adeus." Also a few covers including The 18th Century Corporation's "This Guy's in Love with You" and Baker Street Philharmonic's great (yes, I love it) take on "Here, There and Everywhere." Syd Dale, Luciano Simoncini, Franco Micalizzi, Helmuth Brandenburg, etc. Lots of good stuff. Enjoy!
NOTE: I used a wrong text font for back cover (incorrect display of symbols, ampersands, diacritics, accents, etc) that's included in the file. The correct cover is in this post. If desired, just delete the back cover and right-click>save the back cover in post.
