Beat Records is glad to present one of the classic score of its catalogue, Quel Caldo Maledetto Giorno di Fuoco by great Piero Piccioni, directed by Paolo Bianchini in 1968 with Robert Woods, John Ireland and Evelyn Stewart.
An atypical movie in the Italo Western genre set during the American Civil War in which the plot is centered on the kidnapping of Richard Gatling, inventor of the machine gun.
The score by Piero Piccioni is influenced by this almost spy-movie collateral setting, even if it derails into the western sound too, mainly thanks to some percussions and most of all to the special guest of the score, the harmonica played by Franco De Gemini, one of the genre trademark that with its presence reminds the audience the background of the story.
A seminal score for the 20 century cinema music finally available in this definitive edition with several unreleased material and in a monographical version displaying the beautiful artwork by Renato Casaro on the cover, mastering by Enrico De Gemini and a 12 pages booklet featuring liner notes and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.
Piero Piccioni in his prime, limited edition to 500 copies.
