GDM Music presents for the first absolute time
on CD the OST by Piero Umiliani for the movie Colpo Gobbo All'Italiana
directed in 1962 da Lucio Fulci.
Piero Umiliani has written a pleasant score where Jazz is protagonist,
but also love themes and Twist music.
In that time RCA issued a 45 rpm extended play with four tracks
among which the amusing songs La Nottola Di Notte and Quello
Che Bolle In Pentola performed by Gianni Meccia.
To realize this CD the mono master tapes of the original
session have been used, digitally restored and remastered,
that gave the chance to release the complete OST. |
In this caper comedy from cult favorite Lucio
Fulci, a bank guard named Paciocchi (Mario Carotenuto) arrives
late for work only to find that the vault has been robbed.
Worried about his job, Paciocchi takes it upon himself to
recover the stolen money, and along with a pair of bumbling
thieves, manages to solve the crime.
The problem then becomes replacing the money in the vault,
which requires another break-in, so Paciocchi hires a professional
bank robber to do the job.
Like most Italian comedies of the time, the script by Bruno
Corbucci and Giovanni Grimaldi relies heavily on farce and
Carotenuto's incessant mugging for its limited charms.
Co-stars Andrea Checchi, Helene Chanel and Gina Rovere will
be familiar to any fan of Italian films, and editor Franco
Fraticelli would later become a frequent collaborator of horror
icon Dario Argento.
