I figured I'd start a topic for the rare gems I find of the italian persuasion. Heads up to @jmctodo @lazyben @el diabolik @dannybos ,
La Lama Nel Corpo "The Murder Clinic"
this LP is great and a bit pricey. The same composer of NY Ripper. The Murder Clinic has more of an orchestral, and classical score. Maybe somewhat of a creepy period piece vibe and very cool bass lines. I love this giallo.
Here's a pic from my collection and below that is a link to purchase it from cdandlp.com

Woah...I want that but do not have that much spare $$$ right now (I can go to about half that without blinking but I'm not sure I've ever spent quite that much on a single record).
Thanks for the heads up though.

Looking forward to following this thread even if I can't pull together the scratch to buy any of the unearthed gems!

That's a corker. If you see it disappear out of nowhere, it'll probably be me, three sheets to the wind with a stolen credit card. Definitely on my wants list, thanks for the heads up SV.

Hmmm...I just had to cancel a credit card today due to shenanigans (someone using it in Poland to buy videos)
You'll have to use a different one

Thanks Vices, that is tempting, but I just splashed out nearly £300 on a bunch of rare Italy BEAT LPs. Do keep these posts coming though, I'm always on the lookout for rare stuff.

More helpfully - it's the same Nicolai vintage as Franco's "De Sade", but very very different!
A mixture of Chamber-and-full-orchestral, very lyrical, it's also quite fruity with the main theme being sorta baroque. It's like a "period"
Nicolai score, with sinister undertones, and some almost medieval-sounding selections. It's very different from his other scores around that time! I actually find it a companion to the Pasolini stuff from that era, like Morricone's Uccellacci e Uccellini (which Nicolai probably orchestrated, I imagine...) and things like The Decameron/Canterbury Tales. I like it!

I am surprised FK hasn't done this one yet!! Anyways, good call @dsicosucks... Definitely sounds like a period piece with an orchestral score and renaissance melodies. It's great.

I love it. Would be great if Andy Votel tackled it.
Do you know Uccellacci e Uccellini, @StrangeVices? The main theme is astonishing - sung opening credits!
Gives me goose-bumps all over, especially the bit where he says "Ennio Morricone musico" and there's a manic laugh!
