Beat Vol. 1 - Lounge At Cinevox
*2022 stock* Lounge at Cinevox: Beat, Vol. 1 plucks a series of lounge-influenced instrumentals from the vaults of Cinevox Records, an Italian record company that has specialized in soundtracks for many decades. Lounge fanatics will be happy to know that much of the material on this disc is either previously unreleased or making its first appearance on compact disc. Much of the material presented here has a jazzy swing to it: "Bakenda Beat" layers freewheeling sax and piano solos over the throb …
Beat Vol. 2 - Lounge At Cinevox
*2022 stock* "After testing the waters with the solid but unexceptional Lounge at Cinevox: Beat, Vol. 1, Cinevox upped the ante with this more interesting second volume. Lounge at Cinevox: Beat, Vol. 2 has the edge on its predecessor because it boasts a more adventurous set of selections. This combination of factors is apparent from the first cut, a wild slab of psychedelic funk entitled "4 Mosche Di Velluto Grigio (Titoli)": After leaping out the speakers with a jazzy drum intro, this cut then …
Uno Scandalo Perbene
"Wonderful commentary by Riz Ortolani, author of a romantic and nostalgic theme, Uno Scandalo Perbene (Titoli), for strings and solo trumpet. The second track of the CD released by Cinevox, Amnesia, is along the same lines, with elliptical strings and sudden piano notes that cut through the thick fog of memories. While Vecchia Strada evokes the sound of an accordion, instrumental for the historical connotation of the work, the string section of Turbamento Ambiguo and Bruneri O Canella? overwhelm…
La Stanza del Vescovo
La stanza del vescovo (aka The bishop’s bedroom - La chambre de l’évèque) is a dramatic movie directed in 1977 by Dino Risi and starring Ugo Tognazzi, Ornella Muti and Patrick Dewaere. For this film Armando Trovajoli wrote one of his most intense soundtracks. The romantic, sad and dramatic music and the recurrent use of a moog keyboard perfectly reflect the loneliness of the main characters , all physically close but at the same time so distant from one another. M° Trovajoli arranged the classic…
L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo
*2022 stock* "Touted as being the definitive edition of Ennio Morricone's darkly seductive score for the first motion picture directed by Italian master of the macabre, Dario Argento, this release of L'uccello Dalle Piume Di Cristallo, or The Bird With The Crystal Plumage, coincides with the film's debut on Blu-ray (see separate review). The entire original soundtrack-album is presented here in stereo for the first time and, not only that, but a very generous helping of bonus and alternate track…
Anche Se Volessi Lavorare, Che Faccio?
"Released in 1972 on the Cinevox record label, Morricone’s score is in a word classic. It contains every musical trademark that we associate with the Maestro, quirky and jaunty backgrounds, romantic and poignant melodies, infectious and haunting musical interludes and emotive and heartrending passages that just melt the listener. The CD re-issue was also on Cinevox, and the company released it in the November of 2003, it contains a little more music than the LP recording in fact there are four …
La Via Della Droga - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
*2022 stock* When Cinevox began reissuing the album catalog of Goblin in the late '90s, they also issued some new albums featuring Goblin soundtracks that had never been given a proper release. One of the most interesting albums from this group was La Via Della Droga, the soundtrack to a 1977 Italian crime thriller that chronicled the adventures of an undercover police officer as he infiltrated a European drug ring. The score plays down the horror theatrics that dominated chilling scores like Su…
Schock (Transfert-Suspence-Hypnos)
*2022 stock* Back in '76 or so, Mario Bava wanted in on some of Argento's azione in the film music department. For his movies, Dario had enlisted some homegrown twentysomethings fresh from sessions in England as an outfit alternately called Oliver and Cherry Five. The quartet, rechristened Goblin, had cranked up their amplifiers to score Dario's two very popular films, the bloody Profondo Rosso and the supernaturally-inclined Suspiria. Bava wanted the same kind of sonorous edge for his next fora…
Metti Una Sera A Cena
Few copies coming from a dead stock. For a late-'60s Morricone soundtrack this is a little on the bland, easy listening side. But it's at the very least pleasant, and there are the occasional streaks of eccentricity to be heard here and there. The majority of the tracks are dainty and sunny, if lushly orchestrated, sometimes decorated with Edda Dell'Orso's female vocal scatting, as if to suggest the dawning of a new romance as the curtains are raised on a sparkling Mediterranean day. Some …
Adua E Le Compagne
*2022 stock* In Adua e le Compagne, a desperate drama with no way out, Piero Piccioni's jazz is the master, a constant counterpoint to the story even in its most excruciating moments (Adua's revolt in the pre-final, dressed as a prostitute in front of the clients of the trattoria to discredit the scoundrel who would like to continue exploiting her). A precise relationship of collision between image and music that would characterize much of Pietrangeli's later cinema (La visita, and of course the…
Il Fantastico Viaggio Del Bagarozzo Mark
*2022 stock* Year 1978. The Italian Prog was beginning to lose ground. They were times of punk and new wave. Area, in that same year, published a disc from the title rather explanatory: Gli Dèi se ne vanno, Gli arrabbiati restano: The Gods go away, The angry remain. The "Gods", at the time, could be understood as the champions of progressive and experimental rock. The "angry" ones, instead, were the "irreducible" protesters who, shortly thereafter, would have given life to other seasons of under…
Il Giocattolo
In 1979, Cinevox released an LP containing the soundtrack of "Il giocattolo" , composed by Ennio Morricone for Giuliano Montaldo's film of the same name. For years, the original masters of the recording session were thought to be lost. It was only in 2007 that they were rediscovered in perfect condition. This is the reason why Cinevox decided to make this new Cd edition. The original master allowed to correct some small imperfections contained in the LP. As a bonus track, five previously unrelea…
Scacco Alla Regina
Edition of 500. Cinevox present an ultimate 2-CD expanded edition of cult score Scacco alla Regina, a 1969 movie directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile, taken from the book of Renato Ghiotti, screenplay by Brunello Rondi and Tullio Pinelli, music by Piero Piccioni.A weird story with psychedelic athmoshperes, with costumes similar to the Star Treck series and with the wonderful music of Piero Piccioni, one of the best composer in the international scene. Edda Dell'Orso lends her haunting, wordless …
La Morte bussa due volte
*2022 stock* A stellar cast doesn’t always guarantee a magnificent film and, from a strictly cinematographic point of view, “La morte bussa due volte” (Death knocks twice) is one of many examples of this kind; This thriller was in fact quickly forgotten at the time (1969), despite the presence of the charismatic Adolfo Celi and the beautiful Anita Ekberg.However, even for less ‘important’ productions, the likes of Morricone or, in this case, Piero Umiliani, were sometimes bothered: composers but…
Bora Bora
* Expanded Edition with many extra tracks * Killer!!!! Bora Bora is a 1968 film directed by Ugo Liberatore who, under the pretext of telling about a marriage relationship crisis, depicts the eponymous Polynesian island as a place of perdition and absolute freedom, in contrast to the strict rules imposed by Western society. This movie is also referred as the 'debut' of the exotic/erotic film genre, which culminated a few years later with the famous adventures of Emanuelle Nera interpreted by Laur…
Discoteca Sudamericana
Les Chakachas 'Disco Sudamericana' has been released by CBS Sugar in 1974 and when originally came out did not receive the attention it deserved. At least not the same of the previous album, a club classic with dancefloor bangers as 'Stories' and 'The Party'. But if we take a deeper look at the album, 'Disco Sudamericana' is much richer in terms of catchy tracks and killer grooves. 'Supe Cat', 'Liza & Brooks' or 'Selling Mango' are just some of the peaks here. It is then amazing to discover tha…
Suspiria
2007 edition, discounted price...Don't be surpriesed for this inclusion, as this is possibly one of the best experimental progressive records ever made in the italian golden era. This legendary soundtrack combines elements of electronic music and sound scary effects going far beyond traditional background scoring, becoming an integral part of the film. As critics say nowadays, SUSPIRIA music "is so perfectly integrated into the film, fares less well as a stand-alone item. All that pounding, ho…
Ethiopian Knights
Right from the stop-start bass groove that opens The Emperor, it's immediately clear that Ethiopian Knights is more indebted to funk - not just funky jazz, but the straight-up James Brown / Sly Stone variety - than any previous Donald Byrd project. And, like a true funk band, Byrd and his group work the same driving, polyrhythmic grooves over and over, making rhythm the focal point of the music. Although the musicians do improvise, their main objective is to keep the grooves pumping, using their…
