Beat Records relaunches on the market the classic OST by Ennio Morricone for the Western film Le pistole non discutono, directed in 1964 by Mario Caiano and starring Rod Cameron, Ángel Aranda, Vivi Bach, Horst Frank, José Canalejas, Kay Fisher, Joseph Martin, Hans Nielsen, Dick Palmer, Judy Robbins, and Andrew Ray. For this film, Ennio Morricone composed the song "Lonesome Billy," a Western ballad with an American sound introduced by guitars and whistle with the voice of Pete Tevis (who also wrote the lyrics). Le pistole non discutono, a cavalcade theme for orchestra with horns alternated to dramatic orchestral passages such as "Gli indiani" and the percussive "Le pistole non discutono (#2)" with accompanying harmonica. This OST is also characterized by the burlesque motif "La ragazza e lo sceriffo" and Mexican mariachi music performed on solo guitar and also with female vocals. This CD, with a total duration of 41:45, was assembled using the mono masters of the original sessions, with the inclusion of the three stereo mixes that Maestro Morricone authorized for the previous edition released years ago. Mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano, graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Beat Records presents this reissue on CD of a classic OST by Ennio Morricone for the Western comedy film Che c'entriamo noi con la revolution? (aka What Am I Doing in the Middle of a Revolution?), directed in 1972 by Sergio Corbucci and starring Vittorio Gassman, Paolo Villaggio, Riccardo Garrone, Leo Anchóriz, Simón Arriaga, José Canalejas, Eduardo Fajardo, and Carmen Pericolo. Taken directly from the mono and stereo tapes of the recording sessions, this CD contains everything that was recorded at the time for a total length of 55:40. This OST is represented by the main theme "Che c'entriamo noi?" for orchestra and choir, stylistically situated somewhere between country and religious music, which is reprised in the OST and alternated with versions of "Rivoluzione??" including whistles, guitar and harpsichord, banjo and piano, and flute. This OST also contains various comedic themes with whimsical vocal effects in "Tarantella prima" and "Tarantella seconda," a light-hearted motif for trumpet for the priest Don Albino, then reprised with the whistle march written for the character of Guido Guidi.

La trappola scatta a Beirut (aka Agent 505 Todesfalle Beirut) is a spy movie directed in 1966 by Manfred R. Kohler, with a screenplay by Manfred R. Kohler and Mario Siciliano, photography by Knut Seedorf and Rolf Kästel, editing by Waltraut Lindenau and Manfred R. Kohler, and music by Ennio Morricone. With La trappola scatta a Beirut, Ennio Morricone entered the world of Eurospy with a great American-flavored jazz-swing score in which the composer completely eliminates the strings, leaving room for brass and rhythm section in the cues "La trappola scatta a Beirut (Titoli)," "Inseguimento," and "Missione pericolosa," and incorporating the organ to create atmospheres that evoke mystery and science fiction. There is no shortage of lounge moments either, such as the relaxing "Relax per un agente segreto," "Baci dopo le pallottole," "Languidamente," "Tramonto su Beirut," and the danceable "In piscina." Pure dynamite for all fans of the genre! Il successo is a comedy film directed in 1963 by Mauro Morassi, again with music by Ennio Morricone. For Il successo, Ennio Morricone wrote a jazzy OST with explosive winds and rhythms in "Il successo (Titoli)" and "Il successo (Finale)," featuring Nunzio Rotondo's trumpet. The life of the protagonist, a man who wants to reach the peak of professional success at any cost, is underlined by various themes that characterize his lifestyle, between parties and the desperate desire to reach enormous patrimonial wealth, as heard in "Con eleganza," "Il successo (Twist)," and "Allegra Sambina." The Maestro also composed a nostalgic theme for flute and small ensemble entitled "Per Vittorio," which is also reprised in the Latin version "Per Vittorio (Bossa)." This CD was taken from the mono master tapes of the original sessions (whose first edition was assembled by this writer under the supervision of Maestro Morricone himself), presents a good opportunity for all those who are only now discovering the greatness of Ennio Morricone to include it in their collections.

Beat Records presents a reissue of classic OST by Ennio Morricone for the drama movie La donna invisibile aka ("The invisible woman") directed in 1969 by Paolo Spinola and starring Giovanna Ralli, Silvano Tranquilli, Carla Gravina, Anita Sanders, Gizi Rizzi, Franca Sciutto, Gino Cassani, Raùl Martinez, Elena Persiani. Ennio Morricone has composed an excellent lounge-type orchestral soundtrack for La donna invisibile. "La donna invisibile" main theme is introduced in the opening credits with prominent oboe, a romantic atmosphere with an epic and melancholy flavor, more airy and cheerful in the second part with Latin American rhythms, then sad again in the coda and lyrical. "Ritratto d'autore" is the best-known song among the fans as it is present on numerous compilations: a romantic motif with a bossa nova tempo and extremely elegant. Edda Dell'Orso appears on "In un sogno il sogno." "Mille ricordi" a very evocative piece that develops for strings only between crescendo and decrescendo with pauses in between. Ennio Morricone has composed three danceable shakes that accompany the protagonist's social life often at parties full of people, food and drink, but which do not fill her life as an invisible woman in the eyes of her husband. For this CD, the stereo master tapes of the original 1969 session were used. Another masterpiece by Ennio Morricone which is back on the market to the delight of those who did not own this compact disc and which adds to the musician's already gigantic discography. Mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano, graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Beat Records reissue the classic original soundtrack by Ennio Morricone for the western movie Il Mercenario (aka "The Mercenary"), Ennio Morricone composed a wonderful soundtrack for a genre for which he has written immortal masterpieces. The Roman maestro surrounded himself with his usual collaborators such as Bruno Nicolai for the conducting of the orchestra, I Cantori Moderni Choir, and Alessandro Alessandroni for his famous whistling. For this CD, the original stereo master tape assembled for the 33rpm of the time was used, since to this day the complete recording sessions remain missing. Following a dramatic introduction by the winds, "Bamba vivace (Main Titles)" develops with an excited mariachi for orchestra and choir. An atmosphere of suspended mystery is provided by the whistle, orchestra and castanets in "Estasi," "Il mercenario," "The Mercenary (Reprise)," and "The Mercenary (Reprise Terza)." A moment of great romanticism and heroism is reached in "Libertà," a thrilling piece with the intervention of the Cantori Moderni. "Paco" takes up the choral Mexican motif of the opening credits, and "Ricciolo" is a piece for guitars and castanets with the melody of the organ. The climax of the soundtrack is "The Mercenary (L'arena)," arranged with whistle and castanets, trumpet and electric guitar that introduce a heroic motif for orchestra and chorus of Mexican flavor, also used by Quentin Tarantino in Kill Bill Vol. 2 in 2004. There is no shortage of Mexican folk music such as "Sueno Mejicano," "Fiesta (Mariachi)," and "Canto a mi Tierra," plus a waltz for the party scene. This CD is essential for any collection dedicated to the musical art of Ennio Morricone and the Italian western genre. Mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano. Graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini. Includes 12-page booklet.

Beat Records present the world premiere CD release of Space: 1999, featuring the original motion picture soundtrack of the Italian theatrical version composed by two-time Oscar-winner Ennio Morricone. Space: 1999 premiered in Italian theatres on January 14, 1975, and was created through the process of editing together three episodes from season one of the TV series: Breakaway, Ring Around the Moon, and Another Time, Another Place. The theatrical release of Space: 1999 predated the series' debut on Italian television by a year, with the first six episodes being broadcast from January 31, 1976. Six more episodes followed in July and the remaining twelve episodes in the fall of the same year. The series' original iconic score was not used for the Italian theatrical version (the series originally premiered on British television on September 4, 1975), instead being replaced with a fascinating score by Ennio Morricone, who composed original material featuring frantic jazz themes and futuristic electronic sequences reminiscent of Barry Gray's work on UFO. This release also includes avant-garde material by Morricone that was carefully selected as background music for various scenes in the movie, taken directly from the RCA promotional series of library vinyl LPs titled Dimensioni Sonore, performed by symphonic orchestra and presented here in full stereo. Also included is the final large orchestral theme heard over the end credits, featuring vocals by Edda Dell'Orso and I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni. This theme was reused for the 1979 mini-series Orient Express, again scored by Ennio Morricone. Comes with a full-color, 20-page booklet containing double cover, archive stills, a foreword from Fanderson chairman Nick Williams (the official Fanderson UK fan club) and plot synopses and credits for the three original episodes. This release was officially approved by ITV Studios and will be available from September 13, 2016, the day in which the moon separated from Earth's orbit in Space: 1999. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler. Graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Beat Records reissues a classic original soundtrack by Ennio Morricone for the Giallo film Le foto proibite di una Signora per bene (aka The Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion), directed in 1971 by Luciano Ercoli starring Dagmar Lassander, Nieves Navarro, Simón Andreu, Pier Paolo Capponi, Osvaldo Genazzani, and Salvador Huguet. Ennio Morricone composed a solid OST for a genre for which he had written many memorable scores. For this film he penned an orchestral score in which the crystal voice of Edda Dell'Orso intervenes as an additional instrument in the main theme "Le foto proibite di una Signora per bene," performed in a bossa nova tempo that opens and closes the CD. "Amore come dolore" is a romantic-mysterious theme with beat rhythms, contrasting with numerous dissonant themes and the tense atmosphere in which the female protagonist is immersed. Beat dance music is not lacking with themes much loved by fans such as "Allegretto per Signora," "Intermezzino pop", and "Secondo intermezzino pop," which have also been included in various lounge music compilations. For this CD, Beat Records used the stereo master tapes from the original recording sessions. Mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano. Graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Beat Records release on CD the brilliant music by Ennio Morricone for La vita, a volte, è molto dura, vero Provvidenza? directed in 1972 by Giulio Petroni and by Ennio Morricone and Bruno Nicolai for Ci risiamo, vero Provvidenza? directed in 1973 by Alberto De Martino, two comic westerns starring the legendary Tomas Milian. For Provvidenza's first adventure, Ennio Morricone composed a cheerful and brilliant score in which a recurring piece of religious/folk flavor emerges for female choir, with pop rhythms and tubular bells. A truly varied OST with suspense music, saloon pieces for piano, a romantic orchestral love theme, Indian music with sitar and a piece that winks at Rossini's Figaro. For the sequel, the varied soundtrack bears the signature of both Ennio Morricone and Bruno Nicolai (who'd previously worked with director De Martino on the films Dalle Ardenne all'inferno, OK Connery, Roma come Chicago, and L'anticristo. The prestigious duo composed a comic main theme with pop rhythms and choir alternating with square dance music, the delicate love theme "Bocca a bocca", saloon pieces, baroque pop music, Asian atmospheres and a great orchestral Can-Can. This long-running CD, derived from the stereo masters of the original sessions, will transport the listener to the torrid lands of the West in the company of Provvidenza, the funny, kind-hearted character who mocks Charlot with pleasant background music by Ennio Morricone and Bruno Nicolai. Includes 12-page booklet.

Various experimental elements perfectly intertwine in these skillful compositions, VCS3 blend with hair-raising violin notes on a pattern of ominous percussions by Egisto Macchi. With the precious help of Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza as well as Edda Dell'Orso angelic voice, the two masterminds have crafted a true hidden gem."

"Psycho is part of the Ennio Morricone Themes series, a unique collection of the greatest scores 'The Maestro' composed for movies over the past 70 years, divided into different themes. 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 artists. He's one of the most successful composers of all-time, selling over 70 million records and winning dozens of awards. Psycho 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 United States 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 film makers. Psycho is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on 'black clouds' colored vinyl. The package includes a four-page insert with liner notes written by Claudio Fuiano."

"Giallo is part of the Ennio Morricone Themes series, a unique collection of the greatest scores 'The Maestro' has composed for movies over the past 70 years, divided into different themes. 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 was one of the most successful composers of all-time, selling over 70 million records and winning dozens of awards. When we think of 1960's Italian pulp cinema, the spaghetti western is the genre that comes to mind. However, Italy was responsible for another classic cinematic exploitation movement around the same time, one that is equally as compelling, but less widely recognized. Giallo, meaning 'yellow', is the Italian term for crime fiction, it was named after the bright yellow colors of early pulp fiction paperbacks. Film audiences adopted it as the name for a peculiarly Italian sub-genre of thriller cinema that had its heyday in the 1970's -- just as the spaghetti western movement was waning. The Giallo can be difficult to define, but essentially it is an Italian crime film that draws from a pool of common themes: stylized murders, amateur sleuths, sleazy glamour, psychological crimes, enigmatic titles and all these themes are underpinned by creepily atmospheric Ennio Morricone music scores. Giallo is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on 'bloody & black' marbled vinyl. The package includes a four-page insert with liner notes written by Claudio Fuiano."

"Passion is part of the Ennio Morricone Themes series, a unique collection of the greatest scores 'The Maestro' composed for movies over the past 70 years, divided into different themes. 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 was one of the most successful composers of all-time, selling over 70 million records and winning dozens of awards. Ennio Morricone composed soundtracks for well over 400 films during his stunning career. He did so with a genius and a passion that is unrivalled in film composition; yet looking back over his catalogue, certainly in his more familiar works, it is hard to find one single film that could be categorized as a conventional love story. However, passion is woven through so much of The Maestro's creations. Not merely by expressing the simple romance of a love story, but evoking passion in a grander sense, that passion that celebrates life, that pushes people to the limit of their endurance or inspires them to the peak of their capabilities. This is passion Italian style, not just reserved for love and affection. Morricone reminds us that everything in Italian life is approached with gusto, energy and passion. Passion is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on 'passionate red and white' marbled vinyl. The package includes a four-page insert with liner notes written by Claudio Fuiano."

Beat Records present on CD the original score by Ennio Morricone for the western La Resa Dei Conti (Aka The Big Gundown, El Halcon Y La Presa) directed in 1966 by Sergio Sollima and starring Lee Van Cleef, Tomas Milian, Nieves Navarro, Walter Barnes, Jose Torres. This movie, considered one of the most important of its kind, is truly brilliant really because it compared two icons of the Italian Western such as Van Cleef and Milian, really perfect in their roles as American gunfighter and Mexican bandit challenging each other bloody duels with no holds barred. Ennio Morricone created one of his most evocative soundtracks for the Italian western composing a wild orchestral theme introduced in the main titles song performed by the sharp throat of Christy, a well-known name among fans of film music. The arghilofono, with an ethnic atmosphere, with sound effects that mimic the cry of birds of prey and with Latin percussion accompaniment, slowly anticipates a powerful development for orchestra and choir in the instrumental version, where the crystalline voice of Edda Dell'Orso is featured. This heroic motif is alternated with mysterious and often dramatic passages drawn from experimental music. The author incorporates fragments of "Fur Elise" (Beethoven) as background to the clash between Corbett and Baron Von Schulenberg, who uses a special holster of his invention. In Italy the album was released in audio mono on Parade Label (EPL 2891) and in America in stereo by United Artists (SULP 1228). Reprinted on CD in Italy and in Japan, this new version has a longer duration and it is the definitive presentation. This CD includes both the original album tracks in stereo and the mono film versions with completely restored sound and also it contains a true rarity bonus track: the film version of the "Finale" with a never released intro featuring a grotesque effect of arghilofono with strings and oboe. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler. Liner notes by Andrea Morandi. Graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Limited restock. 2015 release. "The Hateful Eight is the eighth film by two-time Academy Award winner Quentin Tarantino, and the first time he has made a film with a dedicated score. Who better to help create and coordinate his first dedicated score than the legendary film composer and Academy Award winner, Ennio Morricone? Tarantino has used Morricone pieces in each of his most recent six films, including Django Unchained and Inglorious Basterds. The Hateful Eight marks the first time the two have collaborated throughout the production of the film to create a complete picture: bringing together the sounds, sights, and passionate grit to fabricate a truly well-rounded piece of smart art. Morricone started writing music at the age of six and has been composing critically acclaimed film scores since the 1960's when his career was launched after composing the score to The Man with No Name trilogy starring Clint Eastwood. Morricone established himself as the master of spaghetti western scores and later on began working in all genres of film with directors such as Franco Zeffirelli, Federico Felini, Roman Polanski, and Roland Joffe putting him on par with the major composers and establishing him as one of the all-time greats, composing soundtracks for over 400 film and TV projects. He has made his mark on film by blending jazz, folk, blues, funk, and classical music to make for brilliantly simple scores that set him apart from the rest. In Tarantino's tradition of not confining his soundtrack selections to space or time periods, the soundtrack also features songs from Roy Orbison, David Hess, and The White Stripes to round everything out. Hateful Eight is the most sweeping and narrative soundtrack Tarantino has released yet, and is sure to become a classic."

Beat Records release on CD the original soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone for the 1971 giallo movie Gli Occhi Freddi Della Paura (aka The Cold Eyes of Fear), directed by Enzo G. Castellari with a screenplay by Enzo G. Castellari, Leo Anchóriz and Tito Carpi. Photography by Antonio L. Ballesteros, editing by Vincenzo Tomassi, and starring Giovanna Ralli, Gianni Garko, Fernando Rey, Julián Mateos, Karin Schubert, Frank Wolff, Franco Marletta, Leonardo Scavino. The plot -- Peter Badel, the young son of a judge, arrives back home with his girlfriend Anna and is held captive by two criminals who'd been lying in wait after killing the servant. The older of the two criminals, who'd been sentenced by Peter's father to fifteen years in jail, plans to kill the judge when he returns home by blowing up the house with an explosive device. Peter and his girlfriend try everything in their power to communicate with the outside world, but their efforts are in vain. Desperate, the young man causes a short circuit that leaves the house in complete darkness. In the ensuing climactic fight scene, the two criminals and the girlfriend are killed, and Peter, the only survivor, battered and bleeding, awaits his father's return. The music -- Ennio Morricone composed a score of the experimental kind, conducted by Bruno Nicolai and performed by Gruppo di improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza. With just a few instruments performing a sort of conversation, the maestro effectively creates an avant-garde atmosphere, suspended and rarefied, alternating with other violent clashes of sound that provide the ideal background to the situation of pure terror in which the protagonists find themselves. For the making of this CD, the stereo master tapes of the original session were used, providing another discographic tribute to the musical art of Ennio Morricone and the cinematic art of director Enzo G. Castellari. Liner notes by Fabio Babini, mastering by Claudio Fuiano, and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Digitmovies release an LP of the OST by Ennio Morricone: Noi Lazzaroni (We Rascals). Ennio Morricone has composed a very "rural" score with the sounds that represent the life of the protagonist. Although integrated within modern society, the soul of this man is always directed to his past, to his land, to the teachings of his father which he could never leave behind. This adherence to the homeland is expressed through deliberately wild and almost enraged vocal performances of Edda Dell'Orso. Ennio Morricone has composed music which reflects the bucolic atmosphere of this tale through a series of archaically flavored themes played by instruments like recorder and mandolin. Among the recurrent themes there are a mysterious motif, dramatic music for dissonant strings and a lounge theme with the typical Morricone sound. The main theme is reprised for recorder and guitar and there is Baroque music for the puppet theater played by woodwinds and percussions. Contains two bonus tracks, unreleased alternate takes of the original album versions which will surely be quite attractive for fans and scholars of the music of Ennio Morricone. Edition of 300.
