In the main cast Ugo Tognazzi, Mimsy Farmer, Alain Cuny.Ennio Morricone has composed an extremely romantic and rarefied orchestral score where the crystal voice of Edda Dell'Orso emerges as a real instrument. To assemble this album (only a 45 rpm single was issued) the stereo master tapes of the original recording session were used and properly restore…

Progressive Percussions
Eddie Warner, born in Magdeburg, Germany, in 1917, was one of the leading figures in European exotica in the 1950s, operating from France, where he ended up at after the war. His repertoire of styles included several kinds of jazz- and Latin-based dance music such as mambo, baião, and chachachá, but, as a tireless explorer, he also found refuge in the library music and electronic sounds department. A cornerstone of his work in that field, Progressive Percussions, was originally released i…

Il Sorriso Del Grande Tentatore
The first ever official LP reissue of a classic 1974 score!

i Crudeli (The Cruel Ones)
Supremely atmospheric Ennio Morricone score to a lesser known, but nonetheless stylish and satisfying Sergio Corbucci production; a cross between a Spaghetti Western and a wild west road movie, indeed, a fine example of a film that combines both Italian and American western film traditions.
Andy Warhol's Flesh for Frankenstein
Dagored presents the first complete vinyl edition of Claudio Gizzi's sophisticated soundtrack for the ultra-cult film "Flesh for Frankenstein". The legendary 1973 work was directed by Paul Morrissey and produced by Andy Warhol and stars a young Udo Kier. With its sad tone, the score perfectly matches the cold and cruel realism of this bizarre horror film. Careful piano is joined by an at times magnificent orchestra on this album, which definitely holds its own, even without the film. Double v…
Profondita'
Restocked, last copies around....One of the more enigmatic and best kept secret albums in Italian discography, which has sparked lengthy discussions among collectors, has been unearthed by Cinedelic Records who found the original masters and put an exclamation mark on the year of production: 1977. 'Profondità' is a double LP of strongly progressive and psychedelic tunes with space, underwater, intimate and rarefied atmospheres. Full of the kind of technicolour psychedelics you expect by a Floyd-…
Lo strano vizio della Signora Wardh
Spare and spooky – and a cool Italian soundtrack for this horror film that's also known (alternately) as The Blade Of The Ripper, The Next Victim, Next, and The Strange Vice Of Mrs Ward. The style is kind of a mixture of Piccioni and Morricone – as some tracks have a spare, moody, evocative sound with piano and wordless vocals, mixed with other tracks that have a lighter bossa-ish sound on organ or harpsichord.. (Dustygroove)
Una Bella Grinta
n amazing set of modern jazz – penned by Italian film composer Piero Umiliani, but also played by a very hip group headed by a young Gato Barbieri! Although Gato's probably best known for his late 60s appearances on the American scene, and his 70s dates for Impulse and Flying Dutchman – his earlier work in Italy is all pretty darn great, and this set shows the budding modernist to be in very strong company with a lineup that includes Enrico Rava on trumpet and Franco D'Andrea on piano, plu…
La Musique dans le Film d'Alain Resnais
This unedited collection of soundtracks to the films of Alain Resnais explores the legendary French director's relationships with some of the greatest composers of the era: Georges Delerue (whom Le Figaro dubbed "the Mozart of cinema"), Giovanni Fusco (known for his work with Michelangelo Antonioni), Francis Seyrig, and the great Hans Werner Henze. A film director of insatiable curiosity and a man rightly considered as a musician among filmmakers, Resnais worked with composers of widely differ…
