For Da Corleone A Brooklyn, Franco Micalizzi composed and conducted an original soundtrack which contains all the elements of a genre that still has a large audience of loyal enthusiasts, even after decades. The nostalgic main theme is performed by an orchestra with wind and rhythms typical of this genre. It is introduced in the opening credits and reprised throughout the OST. There is no shortage of suspense or action music following the storyline and there are interventions with a marranzano (an instrument from Sicily). Maestro Micalizzi wrote a second recurring theme, a motif with a pop flavor which is reprised in several fast and slow orchestral versions. For this album, the stereo master tapes of the original recording session were used. Directed in 1979 by Umberto Lenzi, Da Corleone A Brooklyn stars: Maurizio Merli, Mario Merola, Laura Belli, Van Johnson, Biagio Pelligra, Venantino Venantini, Sonia Viviani, Tom Felleghy, Nando Marineo, Salvatore Billa, Giovanni Cianfriglia. After the assassination of Salvatore Santoro in Rome, commissioner Giorgio Berni is sent to Palermo to work on the case with the local commissioner Danova since there are good reasons to suspect that the mafia is involved. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Sturges of the New York Police Department stops a man who claims his name is Vito Ferrando, a suspected drug trafficker without a residence permit. Sturges sends a report to Palermo stating that Ferrando is actually the mafia boss Michele Barresi, a man who has repeatedly escaped the law. Barresi is cleared of charges for the crime in Rome, but people close to him are killed, including his girlfriend Liana Scala, and Francesco Santoro. One of the assassins, Salvatore Scalia, who is Liana's brother and Barresi's former trusted man, falls into the hands of the police during an armed conflict. Giorgio Berni obtains permission from his superiors to transfer the prisoner to America so that his testimony can be used to frame Barresi. The journey is full of dangers as the mafiosi try to eliminate the incriminating witness. Berni hides out at his ex-wife Paola's house and then manages to get to New York, but he cannot prevent Scalia's death. But Scalia has left a written testimony.

Occhio Malocchio Prezzemolo E Finocchio is one of the classic cult comedies of the '80s, the most prolific decade in Italian cinema for that cinematic genre.

The soundtrack also features "Sheriff", the main titles of the movie Uno Sceriffo Extraterrestre... Poco Extra E Molto Terrestre (1979), which together with the complete soundtrack of Occhio Malocchio Prezzemolo E Finocchio reflects the contents of this CD, the latest in Beat Records' ongoing series dedicated to Guido & Maurizio De Angelis.

Directed by Sergio Garrone, Django Il Bastardo (1969) is considered by critics to be one of his best films. Here is one of the most iconic Spaghetti Western characters, Django, in one of his final movies, this time played by Anthony Steffen. It's not the first time Vasco Vassil Kojucharov (a maestro very dear to the Beat Records publishing group) scored this character. Thanks to the Nomus association, archivist of the Kojucharov fund, the label retrieved four master tapes and many documents from the recording session for this soundtrack, which -- coming as no surprise, being a representative example of its genre -- reveals all of the musical skills of the maestro. His immensely creative vein is evident from the main titles, which -- performed with typical instrumentation for Italian Western movies -- winks an eye to the spy genre. A wonderful unreleased score, finally available for your listening pleasure. Mastering by Enrico De Gemini. Graphic design by Daniele De Gemini. Liner notes by Alessandro Bratus (English-language translation edited by Josh Mitchell). Jewel case; 12-pages booklet.

L'agnese Va A Morire is one of the most successful collaborations between director Giuliano Montaldo and composer Ennio Morricone. The composer, avails himself of exceptional soloists such as De Gemini on harmonica, Carnini on organ, Valdambrini on flugelhorn, Enrico Pierannunzi on piano, and the dramatic vocals of Clara Murtas to create the appropriate atmosphere to describe life turned upside-down by Nazism during WWII, during the eight months preceding the liberation of Italy from German occupiers. Morricone alternates sacral moments with dissonance to describe this dark period of Italian history. Beat Records used a first-generation stereo master prepared in 1977 for a 33rpm that was never released, now fully restored for an exceptional listening experience. The CD is released in the classic CDCR series with mastering by Daniel Winkler and Claudio Fuiano. Liner notes by Patrick Bouster. Graphic design by Daniele De Gemini, featuring the original poster art by Renato Casaro on the cover. Jewel case; 12-page booklet.

Digitmovies release the original soundtrack by Franco Micalizzi for the film Brothers Till We Die (original title La Banda Del Gobbo). Franco Micalizzi composed and conducted one of his most iconic OSTs for the crime drama genre with this soundtrack. Within the soundtrack emerges a recurring main theme, using a Moog synthesizer, that is then developed by an energetic woodwind section. It is then reprised in slow and fast versions. There is plenty of instrumental dance music and a romantic ballad with vocals. The leitmotif is alternated with suspenseful phrases written for strings. Directed in 1977 by Umberto Lenzi, the film stars: Tomas Milian, Pino Colizzi, Isa Danieli, Sal Borgese, Luciano Catenacci, Francesco D'Adda, Sandra Cardini, Guido Leontini, Mario Piave, Jimmy il Fenomeno, Solvy Stubing. After Almost Human, Umberto Lenzi returns to crime drama with Brothers Till We Die, once again starring the Cuban actor Tomas Millian. Here the actor plays both the roles of the twin brothers: one brother is the ferocious "hunchback" and the other is a likeable swindler called "monnezza" who lives in the suburbs of Rome. The first is a ruthless criminal, the second a soft-hearted thief. During a robbery, the hunchback's partners betray him and he is forced to hide out at his friend's house. He then begins implementing his plan to take revenge. When the police are not able to find the hunchback's hiding place, they turn to his twin brother. During a dangerous car chase, the hunchback's car swerves and ends up in the Tiber River ... but the corpse is never found.

Digitmovies release the original soundtrack by Stelvio Cipriani for the film Fearless (original title Poliziotto Senza Paura). Stelvio Cipriani and his unmistakable style accompany the adventures of the fearless policeman in this soundtrack, with alternating action themes and romantic motifs. In the opening credits, a rhythmic motif with electric guitars and percussion is peacefully introduced by a synthesizer and bells, which is then reprised at the end of the film. He also includes danceable disco themes, bossa lounge music, music for Brigitte's striptease in the nightclub and music for the chases. The sad and romantic side of the story is given intense passages with strings that reveal once again the great melodic side of the composer. For this album, Digitmovies were able to use the stereo master tapes of the recording session. Directed in 1978 by Stelvio Massi, the film stars: Maurizio Merli, Joan Collins, Gastone Moschin, Werner Pochath, Annarita Grapputo, Franco Ressel, Alexander Trojan, Massimo Vanni. A private investigator from Rome, Detective Walter Spada, receives an assignment from his colleague Karl Koper in Vienna. He is to find the young Annelise Von Stradel, daughter of a wealthy Austrian banker, who joined a Buddhist community in Rome. Some thugs kidnap the girl before Walter arrives and he is forced to move to Vienna to continue the search. In the Austrian capital, the detective risks his life and finds himself involved in a mysterious and complicated story of minors who are killed or sent into prostitution. A 14-year-old girl named Renata reveals the repulsive part the girl's father and the gang play in the story, and is then killed soon after. The gang is led by a stripper who had kidnapped Annelise and had intended to blackmail the banker. Although his investigation proved successful, Spada returns to Rome penniless.

Digitmovies is releasing the original soundtrack by Franco Micalizzi for the film Merciless Man (original title Genova A Mano Armata). Franco Micalizzi wrote one of his best OSTs for the Poliziesco genre with this one (the main theme is one of Micalizzi's favorites and he often performs it live in concert with his orchestra Big Bubbling Band). The OST opens with the strong main score written for woodwinds and percussion, which is then reprised with different arrangements throughout the film. It is also alternated with moments of suspense. The violent urban jungle atmosphere is broken by "Sambamba", a sunny pop piece with a Latin sound written for choir and orchestra. For this album, the master tapes of the recording session were used. Directed in 1976 by Mario Lanfranchi, the film stars Tony Lo Bianco, Maud Adams, Adolfo Celi, Howard Ross, Barbara Vittoria Calori, Fiona Florence, Luigi Bonos. After being expelled from the CIA, an American ex-cop sets up a detective agency in Genoa. There he is known as "The American", although he has Sicilian origin. He is hired to investigate the seizure and murder of a famous ship owner and get back the billion lire requested as ransom. After numerous ups and downs, the detective manages to get to the murderer.

Determined to take revenge, Django heads up a gang of innocently convicted men he saves from being hanged by Lucas. Unbeknownst to Django, in their group is an Indian named Garcia who convinces the others to attack a convoy loaded with gold. The attack is successful, but losing the gold angers Berry who is counting on the money to finance his career. Django falls into the hands of Lucas and Berry, but escapes and kills Lucas.

LP version. Digitmovies releases the originally soundtrack by Luciano Michelini for the film Silent Action (aka Chopper Squad, original title La Polizia Accusa: Il Servizio Segreto Uccide). Luciano Michelini created symphonic background music that alternates romanticism with drama and mystery. The album opens with the theme of the opening credits, a dark motif produced by strings, percussion and piano which is reprised later in the film. A second recurring motif is a love theme that is introduced in a slow, romantic version with a modern arrangement that alternates with a fast, extravagant march. Initially only the mono mixed tapes were found, but further research into the RCA archives brought to light the stereophonic tape of a previously unreleased LP montage. Directed in 1975 by Sergio Martino, La Polizia Accusa: Il Servizio Segreto Uccide) starred: Luc Merenda, Mel Ferrer, Tomas Milian, Delia Boccardo, Michele Gammino, Paola Tedesco, Gianfranco Barra, Carlo Alighiero, Antonio Casale, Gianni Di Benedetto, Claudio Gora, Giancarlo Badessi, Clara Colosimo, Arturo Dominici, Carlo Gaddi, Claudio Nicastro. In July, 1974, the Italian news reports the tragic deaths of a major, a colonel and a general. Commissioner Solmi investigates the apparently random accidents but focuses on the subsequent assassination of an electrical engineer who he finds out is actually a private investigator. While Judge Mannino reprimands Solmi for his methods, his journalist friend Maria helps him. He comes into contact with Captain Mario Sperlì, a secret political agent working at the Special Information Office, who shows interest in the case and admits to the existence of a failed coup against government security. The investigations, however, are stalled when the accumulation of both crimes and clues forces Mannino to side with the commissioner. Solmi discovers a map and follows his intuition which leads to the identification of a clandestine training camp and the arrest of the guilty party.

Sublime, unique, sexy, and peculiar unreleased scores by electronic and jazz pioneer Ron Geesin, made for the films by maverick director Stephen Dwoskin. Geesin made great music and worked with Pink Floyd. Dwoskin made odd films, most of them are in the BFI permanent collection. These superb unreleased soundtracks come from a fascinating, progressive, and important period in British film history. They represent an intriguing collaboration between the lively Ron Geesin from Scotland and the American Stephen Dwoskin, who both met in London. Musically they are minimal, charismatic, and quite groundbreaking. Ron's soundtracks for Dwoskin' films, recorded in the Geesins's flat, encompassed Ron's very eclectic range of styles -- madcap piano and fretted banjo as well as tape manipulation. Aside from Ron's soundtracks, some of which belong to films that no longer exist (including Pot-Boiler). There was no London equivalent to the underground film scene that Dwoskin had known in New York, and his films remained unseen until such a scene began to come into being, in the autumn of 1966. Some of them made their debut at the Mercury Theatre, near Notting Hill Gate, that September. Dwoskin wrote Alone, starring Zelda Nelson (from Ron Rice's Chumlum), and Chinese Checkers, with Beverly Grant and Dwoskin's friend Joan Adler. Soon both Dwoskin and Geesin became involved in the nascent London Film-Makers' Co-op, which put on screenings in Better Books on Charing Cross Road. In the same autumn, Dwoskin moved into a flat almost opposite the Geesins on Elgin Crescent. More collaborations followed, including Naissant, on which Gavin Bryars, whom Geesin had met during a stint on the northern club circuit with novelty act Dr Crock and His Crackpots, played double bass. Around the end of 1967, Geesin released his first solo LP, A Raise of Eyebrows, and Dwoskin won recognition at the Fourth Experimental Film Competition, aka EXPRMNTL 4, an occasional film festival staged at Knokke-le-Zoute in Belgium. By now the films had optical soundtracks. For Moment, a single-shot film, Geesin provided his most experimental score yet. At the time of its debut in 1970, Dwoskin and the Geesins were sharing a house in Ladbroke Grove. By then, Ron was working with Pink Floyd, and soon afterwards he and Frankie moved out to the country, to be replaced by Bryars both in the house and as Dwoskin's principal collaborator. Until now these scores have remained part of the Geesin Archive and have never been issued. Sleeve notes by Ron Geesin.

LP version. Digitmovies is releasing the original soundtrack by Franco Micalizzi for the film Merciless Man (original title Genova A Mano Armata). Franco Micalizzi wrote one of his best OSTs for the Poliziesco genre with this one (the main theme is one of Micalizzi's favorites and he often performs it live in concert with his orchestra Big Bubbling Band). The OST opens with the strong main score written for woodwinds and percussion, which is then reprised with different arrangements throughout the film. It is also alternated with moments of suspense. The violent urban jungle atmosphere is broken by "Sambamba", a sunny pop piece with a Latin sound written for choir and orchestra. For this album, the master tapes of the recording session were used. Directed in 1976 by Mario Lanfranchi, the film stars Tony Lo Bianco, Maud Adams, Adolfo Celi, Howard Ross, Barbara Vittoria Calori, Fiona Florence, Luigi Bonos. After being expelled from the CIA, an American ex-cop sets up a detective agency in Genoa. There he is known as "The American", although he has Sicilian origin. He is hired to investigate the seizure and murder of a famous ship owner and get back the billion lire requested as ransom. After numerous ups and downs, the detective manages to get to the murderer.

"Psycho is the second in a series of five double vinyl releases that bring together some of Ennio Morricone's greatest soundtrack music. Each collection centers on a different movie genre, together they allow the listener to rediscover the unmatched genius of the greatest movie composer of all time. The Maestro. This collection is dedicated to Morricone's work with Italian directors spanning the late 1960s up to the 1980s. These scores accompany some darkly dramatic films, some veering into the realms of horror. The music highlights the psychological tension within the films and contrasts with his work in the USA during the same era. This is Morricone where he feels truly at home, working with the nuances and drama of the Italian psyche as laid bare by Italian filmmakers. Starting 70 years ago as an arranger for the piece Mamma Bianca, Ennio Morricone is the emperor of scores and soundtracks. Morricone has always been a huge influence for the likes of Hans Zimmer, Danger Mouse, Muse, Metallica and many more musicians. He's one of the most successful composers of all-time, selling over 70 million records and winning dozens of awards. Psycho is available as a limited edition of 3000 individually numbered copies on translucent red vinyl. The package includes a 4-page insert with liner notes written by Claudio Fuiano. The gatefold sleeve contains a red-spot varnish on the outside and images of iconic movie posters on the inside."

Unreleased masterpiece by Roy Budd, the master of British 1970s scores. Composed and recorded in 1974, The Internecine Project is a truly classic Roy Budd score, released here and now on vinyl (and on any format) for the very first time. And it's worth buying just for the totally sublime track called "Mr Easy". Coming from the peak Roy Budd period -- post Get Carter (1971) and pre Diamonds (1976) -- this score neatly bridges the two with Carter-style hypnotic, jazz-driven cues and superb Diamonds-style drama. The film itself was a slick British thriller directed by Ken Hughes, set in a gray, gloomy London and based around espionage and murder. The plot is simple; former spy Robert Elliot (the ice cool James Coburn -- with interesting facial hair and equally as interesting wardrobe) is given a big government job. In order to cut all questionable ties and clean up his rather grubby past he devises a plan in which all of his dodgy associates unwittingly kill each other on the same night -- and in alphabetical order. The film's unusual and often misspelt name comes from the word internecine -- the definition of which is conflict within a group. Full color sleeve; includes sleeve notes.

Beat Records kick off 2020 with the fifth release in the L'uomo dell'armonica series, dedicated to the historical leader and founder of Beat Records Company Publishing Group, harmonica player Franco De Gemini. Franco passed away in July 2013, leaving an enormous void, but he keeps on living through immortal musical performances that connoted his long career. This time Beat Records selected his collaborations with maestro Ennio Morricone, with whom he'd worked many times as soloist, but most notably Once Upon A Time In The West (Sergio Leone, 1968). A cool selection for highlighting the stylistic measure of the evolution both for the composer and the performer, passing through film music milestones, some of which have long since gone missing from the market. Including Per Per Un Pugno Di Dollari (A Fistful of Dollars, 1967), Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo (The Goods, the Bad and the Ugly, 1967), C'Era Una Volta Il West (Once Upon A Time In The West, 1968), Faccia A Faccia (Face to Face, 1967), Sette Donne Per I MacGregor (1968), L'alibi (1969), and many more, the scores in which the contribution of the harmonica player to the wonderful Maestro's music was iconic. By the end of the track list, Beat Records offer again the ghost track released through our 50th year Once Upon A Time In The West edition featuring the studio sound tests by Franco De Gemini during the recording session of that soundtrack. Franco De Gemini plays Ennio Morricone, original recordings from the motion picture soundtracks. Graphic layout and liner notes by Daniele De Gemini. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler. Slim jewel case with an external obi.
