For the first time on LP, Maestro Morricone’s full score for the erotico-giallo « Grazie Zia », directed in 1968 by Savatore Samperi and starring italian actress Lisa Gastoni. On this unique soundtrack, the genius composer has created a magical and suspenseful atmosphere based on the recurrent use of the boy’s choir of Renata Cortiglioni including the killer theme «Guerra e pace, Pollo e Brace» with its funny rhyme and ferocious drums. The movie was “a strange horror tale, tinged with madness, and disturbing because it is so persuasive.” Morricone’s excellent score, with its insidiously recurrent music-box motif, undergirds the tension of the cat-and-mouse antics.
