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.

[StrangeVices]

yeah that's a lot of money! i would just email the seller and make an offer. You never know!

[freshoj]

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

[thenuthouse]

Nice Marantz.

[dannybos]

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.

[lazyben]

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.

This one just popped up on Discogs. Bruno Nicolai's "Justine" on his Gemelli label. Awesome record! It's on discogs, below is a copy from my collection. 200 USD

You're killing me here. I don't know this one at all, how would you describe it?

[DISCOSUCKS...]

A-mazing.

($200.......just can't do it. Finders Keepers.....!!?)

[DISCOSUCKS...]

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!

[StrangeVices]

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.

[DISCOSUCKS...]

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!

This is awesome. I've never heard of this before.
