Soundtracks -- Recently Added -- CD  

A top notch horror soundtrack by Joe Renzetti for the late 80s lowbrow franchise tentpole Child's Play -- tons of eerie string swells and abrupt clattering percussion, cued to scare ya at the proper moment! Joe won an Oscar for the music in the Buddy Holly story a decade earlier, and whether ...

One of the darker scores we've ever heard from Francis Lai -- the French composer best remembered for his famous 60s themes for Claude Lelouch, but who also penned some amazing sounds in the 70s! The score has a wonderful sense of space -- that spare, haunting element that Lai first began ...

A pair of Italian comedy westerns -- each penned for films involving a pair of male actors! First up is a movie that puts a pair of gangsters in the old west -- with results that are a pretty great spoof of Sergio Leone modes -- accompanied here by music from Giorgio Fabor, who changes things ...

A pair of late 70s Italian comedies -- both scored here by the team of Guido & Maurizio DeAngelis! Tre Tigri Contro Tre Tigre is a fair bit more playful than the usual DeAngelis soundtrack -- lots of loping melodies that almost have a circus-like feel at times, augmented by some larger ...

Emanuelle makes it over to the US -- to give our shores a sexy taste of her erotic antics -- and as usual, Nico Fidenco's along for the ride, to ensure that the movie's got a very groovy soundtrack! As with other Emanuelle scores of the 70s, there's a blend here of erotic pop styles, slinky ...

One of the most sweetly sexy soundtracks of the 70s Italian scene -- an out and out classic from the legendary Nico Fidenco!

A pair of Italian cop soundtracks from the early 70s and composer Stelvio Cipriani -- 1972's Squadra Volante and La Polizia Ringrazia from 1974 -- on a single disc from the deep soundtrack gurus at Digitmovies!

A rare Morricone spy spoof soundtrack -- written for a film that starred Sean Connery's kid brother!

An amazing little soundtrack that's every bit as groovy as its cover -- a great blend of 60s mod and Italian jazz, all in support of the skeleton-costumed master thief Kriminal! This CD represents the first full length presentation of the film's soundtrack -- a long-overdue masterpiece that steps ...

A period drama set during the war -- and scored by Ennio Morricone in a mix of militaristic orchestrations and dramatic passages, offset nicely by a few mellower, more redemptive numbers that feature the Morricone strings floating up to the heavens. These latter titles are the ones we really dig -- ...

A triple-header of Italian grooviness -- 3 rare soundtracks, back to back on one CD! The score to La Malizie Di Venere is wonderfully jazzy -- in a way that mixes together flute, piano, and some modder instrumentation that gives the album a cool late 60s feel. The music is handled by Gian Piero ...

The note perfect funky musical score to blacksploition homage/spoof Black Dynamite -- and an honest and true tribute to the originators of the genre from composer & performer Adrian Younge! We absolutely love that Younge doesn't go for a comic take on the style, and shows a true feel for the ...

Dramatic desert music from Angelo Lavagnino -- a set that draws strongly from the Italian "blood & sandals" mood of the time, but which also seems to aspire a bit towards Lawrence Of Arabia grandeur as well! The music's got a nice sense of depth -- some key themes with a good touch ...

A classical western score in the best American mode -- fully orchestrated, and with a proud, manly quality that really fits the mood of this big budget production! Jerome Moross mixes in a full brace of strings with some sharper, tighter instrumentation -- really using the full scope of Hollywood ...

A sweetly sexy soundtrack from the great Berto Pisano -- one that really lives up to its image on the cover! There's a gently grooving feel to the music that's right up there with the best erotica work from Morricone -- handled by Pisano with light strings, keyboards, bits of flute, and some ...

Beautiful work from Ennio Morricone -- 2 soundtracks from different genres of film, but both linked together nicely through their styles! Il Grande Silenzio is a spaghetti western, but Morricone's music for the film is remarkably sweet -- done in that blend of light melody, isolated ...

A tripped out soundtrack to the mid 70s Australian "Ozploitation" biker flick Stone by Billy Green -- a gem from Finders Keepers! The sounds range from spare, spooky Moog accents to ripping funk rock, sultry & seedy jazzy sounds, to a cosmic string band vibe in spots -- you get the ...

An overlooked later score from Ennio Morricone -- one with a slightly modern approach to instrumentation, but much of the charm of his best work from the 70s!

Pretty darn great stuff -- and the soundtrack to the original film that pre-dated the HR Pufnstuff TV show! Charlie Fox really outdoes himself for the movie -- working in a mode that's halfway between Barbarella-like fantasy instrumentals, and Chad & Jeremy-era British pop. Half the tracks ...

One of Morricone's most famous scores -- and certainly the one that got him recognized worldwide as a genius!

Rare late 70s television score work from Armando Trovajoli for the Italian miniseries Ligabue -- with spare bits of keys, strings, and off kilter production that ranges in emotion from tender melancholy, to eerie tension!

A mid 70s Italian cartoon, but one that features some great soundtrack work from Ennio Morricone and Alessandro Alessandroni -- each of whom bring a slightly different feel to the set! Morricone composed the film's main love theme -- "Forse Basta" -- a beautiful number that has all the ...

Funky Cipriani -- and one of the best 70s soundtracks by the amazing Italian composer!

A cool 80s score from Piero Piccioni -- served up here for this Italian comedy that stars Alberto Sordi as a taxi driver!

Two rare soundtracks that both show the spookier side of composer Dominic Frontiere!

Leonard Rosenman's stirring score to Prophecy -- a creepy late film from John Frankenheimer, about a weird little monster that's a lot more cheesy than the music!

A trio of sex film soundtracks from 70s England -- but done in a way that's a lot classier than you might expect!
