2CD jewel case version.
Orchestral score by Giorgio Gaslini.
This 2006 Re-issue is the ultimate double Cd special edition of
"PROFONDO ROSSO", one of the most famous and best selling soundtracks in the history of Film Music on records. 31 years after its
theatrical release, Dario Argento's cult movie dated 1975 is still a
mega-evergreen among Horror and noir fans around the world.
The Original Soundtrack Album, containing 29 minutes of score by noted jazz composer Giorgio Gaslini (Silver ribbon winner for Antonioni's "La notte" in 1961) and emerging rock band Goblin has sold millions of copies all over the world. Thanks to this movie, Goblin at the time became one of the most known bands in the world. The album was printed in a lot of countries and the "Profondo Rosso" theme became a very big hit in the international top charts and nowadays this score
still remains a very innovative one. M ° Gaslini wrote jazz themes and very effective orchestral music to accompany some key scenes of the movie such as the recurrent haunting "lullaby" and the "childish" theme for the murderer. "Profondo rosso" was reissued on CD in Japan and subsequently in the expanded Italian re-issue (CD MDF 301) in 1996. To celebrate the 30th anniversary and beyond of the movie and its great score we are proud to present a double disc set which features the original album program on disc 1 and film versions & alternate takes on disc 2 (with a total time of about 87 minutes in stereo). We have included in the second disc 8 completely inedited tracks (which don't appear on the 1996 Italian CD either) featuring jazz music for the character of the jazz pianist Mark (David Hennings) and very scary experimental music themes. For a scary listening experience!!
