Piero Piccioni - Swept Away (1974)

I probably don't tell you guys enough, but I truly appreciate all the great comments. It's really nice to hear that (most) everyone appreciates the beautiful music shared on the blog. I can't always reply to each comment, so I wanted to make sure I let everyone know how much they mean.

One recent comment was a request for Piero Piccioni's classic score for Travolti Da Un Insolito Destino Nell'Azzurro Mare D'Agosto (a.k.a. Swept Away... By An Unusual Destiny In The Blue Sea Of August). This is not my rip and unfortunately it has a few minor audio glitches, but please don't let that discourage you from enjoying one of my very favorites.

Piccioni is my favourite of the 60s and 70s composers!
Is this his msot famous film that he scored?

He doesn't get the attention he deserves! On his page on Imdb I'm one of two who's written anything about him on the message board. Is there anywhere else to discuss his work (and other great composers from the same golden age of cinema filmscores)?

I hope your blog never goes away.

No way! What a coooool blog! I'm the bassist for an italian cocktail/lounge band (The Smart Set) specialized in movie themes, soundtrack and jingles from mostly Italian movies and tv-shows from those years. We cover "sessomatto", "la pupa del gangster" "mah na, mah na" and other gems by Morricone, Umiliani, Trovajoli and so on.
We also do cover of Bacharach and Mancini's tunes and soundtracks, though... why not? ;-)

I'm definitley putting your blog between the noteworthy links in The Smart Set's site!

Cheers

Alex

Arcureo said...

Done! It's the latest entry on the links page!

Thom said...

Hi Brainiac, first of all thanks for all the great music you have shared. It's been greatly appreciated!!

I was wondering if you have ever seen an OST for the spanish thriller "Tras El Cristal(In A Glass Cage)"? I saw it recently and the music was striking.

Sacha said...

Hi
I found your blog about a month ago and am incredibly appreciative of the effort you've made in helping people like me discovour this amazing music. It has inspired me to try and hunt down as many of these titles on vinyl as I can find.

Brianiac said...

Thom, that is quite an unforgettable film, but unfortunately I'm not aware of any soundtrack release.

Brianiac said...

Sacha, you're very welcome! Good luck on your vinyl hunts. It can be quite rewarding, but sometimes very frustrating!
