Cinecocktail Calibro 3
Beat Records
2007

Italy was celebrated for its wild
crime and cop films during the
Seventies. While filmmakers such
as Dario Argento may be well
known by younger fans for his horror
films, his many Giallo titles
were what first brought him his first
recognition. Indeed, many of his
crime films right up to the Stendhal
Syndrome and hopefully to his
new film, Giallo, stand equal in
creativity and innovation to his
more horror oriented output.
Giallo was a form of Italian literature
which was primarily sold in
cheap yellow paperbacks, hence
the title – Giallo which means Yellow.
It was marked by crime, lurid
content and eroticism. The films,
like the books, had quirky and convoluted
plots and were populated
by strange people doing very bizarre
things, in most cases, in very
violent ways and usually coupled
with steaming sexuality of all possible
forms.
At the same time one of the things
that made the Italian Giallo films
so memorable was the music
score. In most cases these scores
were so superb that they could
easily stand on their own as works
of musical creativity and indeed
many did so. Some of the more
impressive soundtracks came
from the Seventies action cop
genre and this is a great selection
of rare tracks. It is beautifully presented
in a 3 fold digipack with
original artworks and English liner
notes.
Cinecocktail Calibro 3 includes
La polizia incrimina, la legge assolve
- Roma violenta - Napoli
violenta - Napoli Spara - Milano
rovente - A tutte le auto della polizia
- The big game - Il consigliori
- Il prefetto di ferro - Liberi armati
e pericolosi and many never released
before tracks!
This is a rare CD edition indeed
and will be greatly enjoyed by
both lovers of genre cinema and
devotees of soundtracks.
In the same package is a DVD
which is a 1h 15min long documentary
called Il Genere covering
Italian cop films and the music
that accompanied them.
It includes sections of the
Cinevento De Masi 2007 with various
filmmakers offering their
memories and reflections, intercut
with insightful interviews with major
composers and musicians. Interviewees
include Alessandro Alessandroni,
Francesco De Masi and
Edda Dell'Orso alongside directors
such as Mario Caiano and Umberto
Lenzi. There are also live performances
and various tracks from the
album are also played in the background
during various interviews.
This is a high quality doco with lots
of interesting content, it has English
subtitles.
Cinecocktail Calibro 3 is a great
combination of a superb audio CD
and a highly informative DVD.b:
