my appreciation of Ennio Morricone’s work goes way back. two of my favorite films, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and The Mission, were scored by signore morricone. recently scored a nice compilation of some of his more obscure work (i.e. hard to find Italian films) put out by a choice odd-ball independent label here in the states. the compilation: Crime and Dissonance , the label: Ipecac Recordings, the song: Giorno Di Notte, the year: 1971, the groove: deep.

have always had a soft spot for psychedelic acid rock (that scratchy reverb gets me every time), but have perhaps an even softer spot for psychedelic, acid funk. throw in Italian starlets and some b-movie cheap thrills for background scenery, then my corner of the world is right as rain.

day of night , indeed.

ciao baby!
