Demonic sounds, but surprisingly sweet as well – done with this easy-flowing style that's really wonderful – and much more similar to the seductive sound library work of Alessandro Alessandroni, than to some of the starker, darker horror of the time! There's definitely some spooky ... (Soundtracks) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A great little album that ranks with the best of the Italian mod generation soundtracks – filled with playful touches and some very groovy tunes!

A wonderfully groovy soundtrack – one we'd never heard before, and a set that's filled with great little numbers in a range of different styles! The main theme is filled with percussion – really hard-driving drums that are chased by this echoey piano bit that's totally cool, and very ... (Soundtracks) read moreCD
Maurice Jarre's great soundtrack for this legendary film by Luchino Visconti – music as driving and dramatic as the story itself! There's a bit less sentimentality here than some of Jarre's other work of the 60s – and a bit less of an epic sensibility too – as many of the tunes ... (Soundtracks) read moreCD

Mario Migliardi —
A Come Andromeda ... CD Universal/GDM (Italy), 1971. New Copy ...
Just Sold Out!
Very gripping music for this early 70s Italian TV thriller – scored with a wonderfully offbeat style by Mario Migliardi! Some tracks are sweet and breezy, while others are extremely dark – some of the darkest we've heard in Italian film score work of the time! These cuts have some ... (Soundtracks) read moreCD
One of Ennio Morricone's most famous film scores – and certainly the one that got him recognized as a genius on a global level!

Two groovy Ennio Morricone scores from the 60s – both of them pretty darn great! La Trappola Scatta A Beirut is a hip spy thriller from the time – done with some bold, jazzy inflections on the instrumentation – and styles that echo American and British thrillers of a similar ...

A landmark record – not only in the history of the western, but in that of Ennio Morricone!

A pair of Morricone soundtracks – back to back on a single CD! First up is La Vita A Volte E Molto Dura Vero Provvidenza – a very cool western score from Ennio Morricone – one of those great records that isn't really a western soundtrack at all – at least not in the ... (Soundtracks) read moreCD
A sweet 70s groover from Italian soundtrack maestro Armando Trovajoli – one that has some nice funky tracks! There's a bit more electricity running through the mix than on Trovajoli's 60s recordings – sweet keys and bass bubbling under the strings, and often hitting some nice laidback ...

A groovy little soundtrack by the great Piero Umiliani! The score is for a b-grade spy film from the late 60s – starring Stewart Granger as (according to the notes) "a seasoned secret agent, but always ready to kiss and to bang!" A lot to live up to, we know – but Umiliani ... (Soundtracks) read moreCD
