Ennio Morricone Quentin Tarantino Trilogy Soundtrack CD

January 31, 2010 For Sale No Comments

Ennio-Morricone-Quentin-Tarantino-Trilogy soundtrack CD Kind of Blue Records

Now selling at Turntabling; The Ennio Morricone Quentin Tarantino trilogy. Thrill to the Morricone sounds heard in Kill Bill 2, Death Proof, and Inglorious Basterds. Some of the greatest work the maestro has ever done–and it’s a shame that he hasn’t been brought on board to do an original score for a Tarantino flick, but until that day (if it ever comes) this will do nicely, thank you.

This 12-track collection features the outstanding Mystic and Severe, plus Paranoia Prima and Algiers November 1954. I know plenty of Turntabling readers out there aren’t exactly Tarantino fanboys, but there’s no arguing with the maestro–Morricone is the bomb no matter what packaging his work comes in.

Ennio Morricone: Quentin Tarantino Movies is a brand new, sealed import from Switzerland. Get it now while supplies last for $16.00 plus shipping. Overseas shipping is $13.


Four Flies On Grey Velvet LP BACK IN STOCK

January 27, 2010 For Sale No Comments

Four Flies on Grey Velvet soundtrack vinyl LP Morricone

BACK IN STOCK at Turntabling

Morricone really outdoes himself on this one. From the proggy jam on the opening titles, to the trippy, echo-laden sounds and creepy atmospheres later in the album, Four Flies On Grey Velvet is definitely a keeper of a record, no matter what you might think of the movie itself.

Some feel Four Flies on Grey Velvet is a weak entry by Argento, but the quirky characters and the fact that Morricone’s score threatens to become a character in the movie itself gives this one a special, left-of center place in the Turntabling 70s movie hall of fame. It’s become one of our favorites.

The movie is atmospheric, creepy, and has some really excellent, moody set pieces. We can’t say enough about Morricone’s music on this one–there’s a haunted quality about it that lends plenty to the film–in lesser hands, who knows?

The soundtrack is presented here in a beautiful gatefold sleeve and is pressed on glorious 180 gram vinyl. Buy the Four Flies On Grey Velvet OST vinyl LP for $29.00 plus shipping while supplies last. This is an imported, sealed vinyl album pressed in 2001 on Dagored.


Have a look at the trailer for Four Flies On Grey Velvet. We recommend watching this movie late at night in a darkened room. We tried it in the daytime, and it just doesn’t work the same way…

Morricone Aromatico CD Now On Sale At Turntabling

November 9, 2009 For Sale No Comments

Morricone Aromatico

Now on sale at Turntabling–a double disc compilation of some of Ennio Morricone’s most enjoyable film sounds; Morricone Aromatico. This one is a themed collection, categorized somehow by…scents? Yes–coffee, vanilla, pine (one of the best tracks, we might add) This gimmick is cute, but ultimately meaningless–the tracks speak for themselves and there’s quite a lot here. With a whopping 41 cuts, how can you go wrong?

There are prime cuts from many phases of Morricone’s film career, but the standout tracks include Morricone’s samba sounds (Song 7, disc one, Samba in Tribunale) his work with Argento (Song 18, disc one, Four Flies on Grey Velvet), the moody sounds with vocalists, so much more…

This is a brand new, sealed double disc import CD from the UK and definitely worth the time for a beginner or mid-level Morricone collector. Obsessives and completists will want this if they’re into any and everything with Morricone’s name on it, but if you’ve been collecting for a while you probably have most of these cuts.

Buy Morricone Aromatico for $18.00 U.S. plus shipping. Overseas orders may require additional postage–we will contact you for additional details.


Dario Argento Blood Is Red LP Collection

August 19, 2009 album, Compilations No Comments

dario-argento-blood-is-red

Five original soundtrack albums from Dario Argento films on 180 gram vinyl with delicious gatefold sleeves. I scored one of these limited edition collections, called Blood Is Red, and I have to say the vinyl junkie in me is VERY pleased indeed. The films are Cat o’ Nine Tails, aka Il Gatto A Nove CodeFour Flies on Grey Velvet aka Quattro Mosche Di Velluto Grigio, Profondo Rosso, Suspiria and Tenebre.

I have seen these selling for upwards of $175, so I was very happy to score mine for well under $70 and in tasty condition, too! Cat o ‘Nine Tails is a very underrated soundtrack, and it definitely gets lost in the shuffle compared with Tenebre and Suspiria. Any Goblin fan will swoon over this collection but the Morricone lover in me insists on giving the maestro his due as well.

Roy Budd: Get Carter

June 25, 2009 album, Featured No Comments

Morricone rightfully gets a ton of respect for his soundtracks, but by comparison fellow soundtrack wizard Roy Budd is woefully underrated. Check out this trailer for Get Carter, which features great soundtrack sounds by Budd throughout. Budd has a nice double disc set featuring some of his best work.

Get Budd: The Soundtracks is a worthy investment if you love those 60s action/heist/gangster movie sounds, or if you want to see what else Budd got up to after Get Carter. The movie itself is excellent, Michael Caine really tops himself in this…he’s the prototype for Bruce Willis, Stallone, even Arnold had to take some cues from Caine in this film.

Chuck Norris is a toffee-nosed stripling compared to Caine in Get Carter…Nobody in the entire world comes as close. Standout moments in the trailer include the totally naked Caine chasing a couple of gangsters out of his room with a shotgun…let’s see Norris try THAT. On second thought, maybe not.

The Cynic, The Rat, And The Fist

February 28, 2009 Media No Comments

the-cynic-the-rat-and-the-fist-umberto-lenzi

The best thing about Italian crime movie trailers from the 60s and 70s is that you don’t have to speak Italian. The trailers kick ass all by themselves. And the music for these! I love these 60s and 70s sounds. There’s something about the gritty feel in these Italian flicks from that era that isn’t really duplicated elsewhere. How does all this tie into vinyl? For starters, the soundtrack releases for these and other foreign genre movies are more widespread than ever. You can find plenty of great old stuff by Morricone, Bruno Nicolai, Roy Budd, the list is endless. Some of my favorite vinyl finds are by Goblin and other genre groups doing those way-out 60s/70s noises. If you’re familiar with some of the Turntabling Records releases, you know that Morricone in particular is a huge influence…

Here’s some delicious drive-in cheese–the trailer for Umberto Lenzi’s The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist. What great titles these movies had!
