I listened to Senilita' during the weekend, but today is that Damned Hot Day of Fire ...



... which I'm certain Bill Carson approves of.

When it comes to westerns I take The Deserter.

However I'm getting woozy with La donna è una cosa meravigliosa. I have no idea what this triptych is about.

This is heady celebrations!

It includes a few tracks previously released on LP only, but nothing fully unreleased.

I have not heard much Piccioni, but the one I play all the time is PUPPET ON A CHIAN. That thumping theme is one of my all time favorites. I have tried to check out other stuff by him, hoping for something like POAC, but never finding anything that I like as much. Do any of you fans of him know any score that I should check out - something close to POAC?

It is most similar to Colpo Rovente (1970) and Senza Via d'Uscita (1970).

Here are a few titles one might investigate.

If you are in a mood for an insistent theme (with one or two notes rapidly repeated) with the backing of relentless rhythms, then 7 cadaveri per Scotland Yard could be nearer to Puppet on a Chain than its subject matter would suggest (if you don't mind giallos, that is).

International intrigue is served well by Niente rose per OSS 117 which has jazzy organ & motifs ... just not in the acid rock/psychedelic milieu heard in POAC.

Portions of Camille 2000 may quench the thirst for a satisfying 'ear-worm' melody line. If not, then the previously-mentioned Colpo Rovente is a 'red hot' sibling of POAC.

Also, check out a few other Italians, too, like Carlo Savina's Ombre Roventi which has around a half-dozen groovy hippie tracks ... plus Riz Ortolani's policier Confessione di un commissario di polizia al procuratore della Repubblica.

Listening to the GDM/Legend CD of early Piero "Morgan" music for Jacqueline Sassard movies.
"Il fox di Guendalina" got itself refurbished into Toto' Diabolicus whilst a cue (L'incontro) from Nata di Marzo was recycled into L'imprevisto.

Just learned, too, that Sassard died 5 months ago. frown

148 minutes of In viaggio con papà. Praise to the slap bass funk acid jazz exotica.



...and then 146 minutes devining Sono un fenomeno paranormale BABASCIO'.



It was a big weekend.

Assolto per aver commesso il fatto
La donna e una cosa meravigliosa

The Babascio squeeze was tight.

Looks like Bill is still party'n hard. I'll attempt to cool down with Folco Quilici, Fratello Mare.


Followed by Un Bambino di Nome Gesu' as we approach the last days celebrating the Maestro.

Listening to Quartet's expanded reissue of COLPO ROVENTE and discovering this score. It's made up of really outstanding stuff. This is of course pure Piccioni but in various passages, I almost find a Schifrin touch to it. Highly recommended.

Today its L'Attico 1962 and A boy named jesus (il bambino nome gesu etc), as mentioned by ag janus

Both with some very nice tracks.
