The Neapolitan composer Louis Siciliano with the seventh song of his soundtrack to ‘20 Sigarettes’.

Il Vento Nuovo. (2010)

Stelvio Cipriani again, this time with one of the songs from the hit Italian 1976 series Dov’ E Anna? This series ran for 7 episodes and apparently had the giant boot on the edge of its seat.

This is the sixth song from the soundtrack; at first it sounds like a laid back lounge piece- but there’s loads stuffed into the five minutes.

It’s not often fLingstuFF posts a waltz, this exception is from Angelo Francesco Lavagnino’s Historia de Una Chica Sola from 1969. A strange and brittle soundtrack with great sleeve notes and artwork. The film was set in Barcelona.

The song is called Ana’s Waltz.

Metti, Una Sera A Cena won Ennio Morricone his first Nastro d’ Argento. Coming toward the end of his Western output, this album -in my view- heralded the start of his best period with Sacco and Venzetti, Maddalena, Cosa Avete Fatto a Solange, Questa Specie d’Amore and Revolver representing the kind of production he kicked out over the subsequent three years (amongst other 70-odd releases…)

This song is the opener from the album and in the best Morricone leitmotif, it builds and builds along a single melody.
