L’OCCHIO SELVAGGIO (THE WILD EYE) was directed by Paolo Cavara, a sharp critic of a certain way of making mondo movies. Shot in 1967 with Philippe Leroy (in the guise of Paolo, the protagonist), Delia Boccardo and Gabriele Tinti, Cavara takes the viewer on a trip around the world, from the deserts of Africa to the jungles of the Vietnam War. Scoring duties were entrusted to Maestro Gianni Marchetti, one of the composers whom Beat Records is trying to rediscover in an effort to fill an unrighteous gap in his discography (other productions in our catalog include Il sole nella pelle, Notti porno nel mondo n. 2, Cicciolina amore mio, Diario segreto di una minorenne, Vita segreta di una diciottenne and Milano: il clan dei calabresi).

Probably his masterpiece, L’OCCHIO SELVAGGIO is in constant equilibrium between dreamy and suspenseful orchestral music, nocturnal jazz and the West Coast “cool” sonorities that were very much in fashion on the other side of the ocean just a few years prior.

With nine previously-unreleased tracks, we close the production circle with this edition that puts the definitive seal on this wonderful score. The CD is packaged in a jewel case with a 12-page color booklet designed by Alessio Iannuzzi, liner notes (in Italian and English) by Fabio Babini and audio mastering by Claudio Fuiano.

UNA STORIA D’AMORE (LOVE ME, BABY, LOVE ME!) was directed by Michele Lupo in 1969 and starred Anna Moffo, Gianni Macchia and Ugo Adinolfi. Evy (Moffo), happily married to a traveling businessman, literally loses her mind over a young playboy, Franz (Macchia), up to the point that she will try to commit suicide.

UNA STORIA D’AMORE was glaringly absent in the discography of the late maestro, a great composer and a friend of Beat Records, but the void is now filled by this release which features more than 62 minutes of orchestral music composed by the skilled Roman musician, with great themes, descriptive music and a melody sung by actress Anna Moffo.
The score also features the Cantori Moderni di Alessandro Alessandroni and the great performer Oscar Valdambrini, notable collaborators of Maestro de Masi and further proof of the quality of this popular composer’s work.

The CD is packaged in a jewel case with a 12-page booklet designed by Alessio Iannuzzi, liner notes (in Italian and English) by Filippo de Masi (the Maestro’s son) and audio mastering by Claudio Fuiano.

GEOMETRA PRINETTI SELVAGGIAMENTE OSVALDO is a surprise new entry in the DDJ series dedicated to upbeat and/or lounge sonorities in our discographic catalog. The Italian cinematic reply to Robinson Crusoe, the film was directed in 1976 by Ferdinando Baldi and tells the story of poor Osvaldo facing the noble savage theme with his personal Friday.

A light, entertaining comedy complete with self-styled ribald innuendos, the score bears the mark of the luckiest ace trio of the Italian musical cinemascape: Bixio, Frizzi, Tempera.
The music is complementary to the themes—the desire to escape, romantic ingenuities, harassment by the French scoundrel, the redemption of the quantity surveyor—and is as itchy and funky as we like it, featuring a sentimental theme, Latin exoticisms, fiery deserts and melancholia. What else could you need?

The CD is released in a jewel case with a 12-page booklet designed by Alessio Iannuzzi, liner notes (in Italian and English) by Fabio Babini and audio mastering by Claudio Fuiano.
