Thu, 11 Mar 2010 03:14:03 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Riz Ortolani's soundtrack to the infamous Ruggero Deodato film Cannibal Holocaust is completely disarming. From the opening theme to the stark, minimalist synth cues used to punctuate the shocking events onscreen, this is one soundtrack CD that can't be pigeonholed, boiled down to its' essence, or easily categorized. The score is ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/riz-ortolani-cannibal-holocaust-soundtrack-cd/ There are bad album covers...and then there are LP covers that make you want to penetrate your own skull with a claw hammer because they're so mind-rottingly awful. There's not much to day about this that you haven't already been thinking to yourself. Dan Nicoloff's Everybody's Pink Under The Skin ... http://turntabling.net/album/wtf/wtf-bad-album-cover-dan-nicoloff-everybodys-pink-under-the-skin/ There are many Goblin compilation CDs, including this excellent collection put out by Bella Casa. The Fantastic Voyage of Goblin: The Sweet Sound of Hell has plenty of old favorites and a nice selection off their non-soundtrack LP, Roller. Snip-Snap and Dr. Frankenstein are both Roller cuts, and there's even ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/the-fantastic-voyage-of-goblin-the-sweet-sound-of-hell-cd/ Spaghetti western fans who are enthralled by that strangely surf influenced guitar playing heard in the Sabata, Ringo, and Man-with-no-name style movies should definitely own West Goes To Pop, The Ringo Beat Cocktail Collection. This compilation of Spaghetti western soundtrack sounds includes Piero Umiliani, Gianni Ferrio, Bruno Nicolai, Fabio Frizzi and ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/west-goest-to-pop-the-ringo-beat-cocktail-collection/ Piero Umiliani is a Turntabling favorite. If you're not familiar with his soundtrack work from Mario Bava movies and films like La Morte Bussa Due Volte, this soundtrack is squarely in retro Italian lounge/retro territory. It's great for anyone who loved the Beat at Cinecitta collection, or a hard-to-find disc ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/piero-umiliani-la-morte-bussa-due-volte-soundtrack/ Death Proof is a grab-bag of musical styles, all of them great. From Chick Habit by An April March to Jack Nitzche's Last Race, (with a little Morricone thrown in for good measure), the soundtrack album for Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof is a great time from start to finish. Hell, ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/quentin-tarantino-death-proof-soundtrack-lp/ Alas, poor Ted. A post like this would be harder to write in good fun if he didn't take himself so seriously or carry himself like a man utterly convinced that he's right...about everything. But since he DOES give off that Rush Limbaugh-esque bouquet, he's fair game. After all, who ... http://turntabling.net/album/wtf/wtf-the-bad-album-cover-odessy-of-ted-nugent/ by Joe Wallace Normally, when I write up these bad album cover posts, I go into an extended rant about how silly the artwork is, or how goofy the clothing featured on the cover might be, perhaps taking time to savor a ridiculous facial gesture or some badly arranged hair styles. However, ... http://turntabling.net/album/wtf/wtf-steve-walsh-glossolalia/ Quentin Tarantino made a hell of a fun movie here. Jackie Brown has everything a Tarantino fan wants---Samuel L. Jackson chewing the scenery, great retro-now locations and culture references, a bit of the old ultra-violence, plus one hell of a smokin' soundtrack. You can't go wrong with Bobby Womack, Johnny ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/jackie-brown-soundtrack-vinyl-lp/ After Profondo Rosso, Goblin released a rare, non-soundtrack album. Some sources say the title track was part of a film soundtrack called Wampir, but I can't confirm or deny that bit of trivia. No matter, as Roller is a fantastic record. If you're already a fan of Goblin, this is ... http://turntabling.net/for-sale/goblin-roller-cd/
