Hard to believe that Bill Carson heard by music by Reverberi BEFORE he had heard any by Morricone!
I suspect i was aware of Robinson crusoe way later than 64, more like 69. But certainly after Montenegro's GBU single was on the radio.

Unless I missed it, Carlo Martelli should be on the list. Born in December 1935, and very probably retired - or at least I can find no reference to film or concert works after 2000 (which I keep thinking was only yesterday).
Not a big name, but I enjoy his scores for Hammer's THE CURSE OF THE MUMMY'S TOMB (1964), and IT!, whose music was basically a reworking of the Mummy score. Also good work on the low-budget Lon Chaney Jr film WITCHCRAFT. He did a lot of uncredited work with Gerard Schurmann, but he is surely best known in classical circles, for his symphonies, chamber pieces and operas. Having said that, I've yet to meet an enthusiast of 20th century classical music who has heard of him. Some of you may have seen him though at Soho's original Pizza Express, where he played in his string quartet.
John Mansell did an interesting interview with Martelli in an issue of Soundtrack, which I believe is online.
