Classic unreleased soundtracks from the Shaw Brothers Kung Fu movies. The Shaw Brothers martial arts movies are the absolute year zero for Kung Fu flicks. --- The Shaw Brothers movies are the acknowledged inspiration behind Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill series of martial arts movies (the director even used the infamous Shaw's "SB" logo at the beginning of the movie!) The catalogue of music libraries such as De Wolfe have proven a treasure trove of unearthed breaks and rare gems for fans of Northern Soul, Psyche Rock, Funk, Krautrock and Easy Listening. Collectors and compilers such as Jonny Trunk, the B-Music collective (Andy Votel,Cherrystones) and David Holmes have all unearthed rare funk, kraut, psyche rock and soul gems from the soundtrack catalogues of long established Production Music companies. De Wolfe Music Library is the longest running, and most important, such film music resource library in the world. --- Devotee's of Shaw Brothers movies include: - Wu Tang Clan - the RZA named his crew after the Shaw Brother's 1981 movie "Shaolin & Wu Tang" (and their debut album "36 Chambers" after "Return To The 36th Chamber"). - Depth Charge - J. Saul Kane used the same logo as Shaw Brothers for his record label "DC" and has sampled them to death. - Quentin Tarantino - who widely acknowledges Kill Bill 1 & 2 to be a homage to the Shaw Brothers. John Woo & Jackie Chan - the modern masters of international martial arts movies are both graduates of the Shaw Brothers Studio. This series of re-issues and anthologies are the first of their kind for De Wolfe and will form a highly collectable series. --- Tracklisting: Features 43 original cues from: Return To The 26th Chamber, The Bastard Swordsman, Dirty Ho, Invincible Shaolin, The Kung Fu Instructor, House Of Traps, My Young Auntie, Flag Of Iron, Shoalin Mantis, Marttial Club and many more..
