Tenebre
*2022 stock* The soundtrack to Dario Argento’s 1982 giallo was written and performed by Claudio Simonetti, Fabio Pignatelli, and Massimo Morante – three musicians from Goblin’s initial lineup who were responsible for some of that band’s most memorable work. But by this point, only one of the three was still in the band; Fabio Pignatelli. In the years before Tenebrae, Goblin had changed hands and the band of old was no more.At the request of Argento, these three musicians got back together to giv…
Trauma
*2022 stock* Trauma is the 1993 film by Dario Argento and one of two films he directed in the USA (The other being Two Evil Eyes) it stars Asia Argento and is a typically flamboyant Giallo from Argento featuring his trademark dizzying camerawork and gruesome over the top deaths. The score by Maestro Pino Donaggio (Carrie, Don’t Look Now & Body Double) who delivered a beautiful, nuanced & lush orchestral score which is absolutely outstanding.

La Cosa Buffa
In 1973 Aldo Lado directs the movie “La cosa buffa” , inspired by the eponymous book by Giuseppe Berto and starring Gianni Morandi and Ottavia Piccolo. The soundtrack is composed by Ennio Morricone, who uses Edda Dell’Orso’s marvellous voice to create an unforgettable theme, both sweet and sensual. The soundtrack was originally released on vinyl and included nine tracks. More than 20 tracks, mostly alternative versions of the main theme, were recovered during the digitization of Cinevox master …
La Moglie Piu' Bella
This is the complete remastered edition of the soundtrack of Damiano Damiani's 1979 film "La moglie più bella" starring a very young Ornella Muti. For the soundtrack of this film, set in a peasant Sicily where the Mafia rules, Morricone composed an extremely sad central theme to which he alternated instrumental parts made with percussion instruments and characterized by the sound of a Jew's harp.
Il Giocattolo
In 1979, Cinevox released an LP containing the soundtrack of "Il giocattolo" , composed by Ennio Morricone for Giuliano Montaldo's film of the same name. For years, the original masters of the recording session were thought to be lost. It was only in 2007 that they were rediscovered in perfect condition. This is the reason why Cinevox decided to make this new Cd edition. The original master allowed to correct some small imperfections contained in the LP. As a bonus track, five previously unrelea…
La Stanza del Vescovo
La stanza del vescovo (aka The bishop’s bedroom - La chambre de l’évèque) is a dramatic movie directed in 1977 by Dino Risi and starring Ugo Tognazzi, Ornella Muti and Patrick Dewaere. For this film Armando Trovajoli wrote one of his most intense soundtracks. The romantic, sad and dramatic music and the recurrent use of a moog keyboard perfectly reflect the loneliness of the main characters , all physically close but at the same time so distant from one another. M° Trovajoli arranged the classic…
Uno Scandalo Perbene
"Wonderful commentary by Riz Ortolani, author of a romantic and nostalgic theme, Uno Scandalo Perbene (Titoli), for strings and solo trumpet. The second track of the CD released by Cinevox, Amnesia, is along the same lines, with elliptical strings and sudden piano notes that cut through the thick fog of memories. While Vecchia Strada evokes the sound of an accordion, instrumental for the historical connotation of the work, the string section of Turbamento Ambiguo and Bruneri O Canella? overwhelm…
La Ciociara
*2022 stock* In this 1989 television remake of La ciociara, the curiosity in the soundtrack is all about the composer. Armando Trovajoli, after having composed the music for the original, has also taken it upon himself to write the score for this new version of the film.Obviously, compared to the masterful version made for the original, this second vision of the film is less articulated and interesting, however, Trovajoli's training, which began his career with the violin, pervades the main them…
Amo Non Amo (I Love You I Love You Not)
*2022 stock* This is an official release of the Goblin soundtrack to Amernia Balducci's film Amo Non Amo. The film, staring Jaqueline Bisset and Terrence Stamp, was released in the U.S.A. under the title Together with a soundtrack by Burt Bacharach. For the Italian prog group Goblin, the commission to rescore the Italian version presented a challenge that would produce some of their most unusual work. There was no spine-chilling horror in this human love story, so Goblin penned the title track, …
Il Fantastico Viaggio Del Bagarozzo Mark
*2022 stock* Year 1978. The Italian Prog was beginning to lose ground. They were times of punk and new wave. Area, in that same year, published a disc from the title rather explanatory: Gli Dèi se ne vanno, Gli arrabbiati restano: The Gods go away, The angry remain. The "Gods", at the time, could be understood as the champions of progressive and experimental rock. The "angry" ones, instead, were the "irreducible" protesters who, shortly thereafter, would have given life to other seasons of under…
Squadra Antigangsters (The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
*2022 stock* The Squadra Antigangsters soundtrack is one of the most unusual and atypical entries in the Goblin canon. Even the most dedicated fans of the group could be excused for not recognizing this album as a Goblin outing: the brash theatrics and heaviness that dominated the likes of Suspiria and Roller are totally absent, replaced by a slick, often jazzy sound that is overtly disco-influenced. The most disco-oriented of the cuts are "The Whip" and "The Sound of Money," both being vocal nu…
La Morte bussa due volte
*2022 stock* A stellar cast doesn’t always guarantee a magnificent film and, from a strictly cinematographic point of view, “La morte bussa due volte” (Death knocks twice) is one of many examples of this kind; This thriller was in fact quickly forgotten at the time (1969), despite the presence of the charismatic Adolfo Celi and the beautiful Anita Ekberg.However, even for less ‘important’ productions, the likes of Morricone or, in this case, Piero Umiliani, were sometimes bothered: composers but…
Mark il poliziotto

The film is one of the most successful examples of the 'Italo-crime' genre under many points of view:…
Notturno
*2022 stock* Goblin's name is very popular since the year of "Profondo Rosso" (1975), but even those who know them in depth "Notturno" remains an almost completely unknown chapter within their vast discography. The production the music was composed for was edited in two versions, a theatrical one released in 1983 and a television one in seven episodes that was broadcasted only three years later.Led at the time by Fabio Pignatelli (bass), Maurizio Guarini (keyboards) and Antonio Marangolo (saxoph…
Profondo Rosso
*2022 stock* Cinevox present a 2-CD expanded edition of cult score Profondo Rosso, Recorded in 1975, the score finds the band at the height of their creativity and features the incredible lineup of Simonetti, Morante, Pignatelli & Martino. Bass & drums are so tight on this record and provide the foundations for the entire score. Jazz, Prog and Rock signatures all fight for center stage yet always manage to be precise, clear and perfectly executed. Synths and organs tinkle, wail and moan and more…
Il Dio Serpente (Colonna Sonora Originale Del Film)

Quei Disperati Che Puzzano Di Sudore E Di Morte (Original Soundtrack)
Los Desperados was released in 1967, and all that was issued from the soundtrack was two tracks on a 45 rpm single, one track being a vocal by john Balfour and also a short orchestral track on the B side of the record. Balfour has a distinct sounding voice, nearly as unique as that of fellow vocalist Raoul. Versions of the song are repeated throughout the soundtrack and make an appearance on 5 occasions during its duration. The score by Gianni Ferrio, is not a typical example of Italian western …
Murderock
*2022 stock* Murderock continues Keith Emerson's string of soundtrack albums he released after disbanding Emerson, Lake & Palmer in 1980. "Streets to Blame" and "Not So Innocent," which feature singer Doreen Chanter. It begins with pop songs and the remainder of the disc consists of instrumentals, from the jazzy, lighthearted "Coffee Time" to the heavily orchestrated "Candice," most of which are at the very least pleasant and all of which have moments of inspiration. Here are some of Emerson's b…
