Eyeball: Gatti Rossi in Un Laburinto Di Vetro

Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing Italy, presents a revised, remastered reissue of a famous giallo score composed by Bruno Nicolai in 1975 for GATTI ROSSI IN UN LABIRINTO DI VETRO (aka EYEBALL) directed by Umberto Lenzi and starring John Richardson, Martine Brochard, Ines Pellegrini and Mirta Miller. Shot entirely in Spain, Lenzi's movie, while visually attractive, is still a conventional giallo already showing the tiredness of the genre. The plot involves the typical red-hooded killer who kills tourists in Barcelona, this time by tearing out their eyes. Bruno Nicolai's music, however, is one of his best for the genre, with a catchy main theme and elegant variations on it, as well as sophisticated suspense music. As usual with Nicolai's thrillers, everything is taken very seriously. Unfortunately, like most of his giallos, Bruno Nicolai's score remained unreleased for two decades. It was not until 1999 that a selection of 11 cues was released on an RCA CD paired with Guido & Maurizio De Angelis' score for the slasher film TORSO. An expanded selection with the complete score (32 cues) was released by Digitmovies in 2007, which quickly sold out and went for high prices on the second-hand market. The present edition contains the same material, supervised by Claudio Fuiano and remastered from the original tapes by Chris Malone. The package includes an essay by the much-missed Gergely Hubai discussing the movie, the composer and the score. Bruno Nicolai's EYEBALL is the kind of score that deserves to be in print so that new generations of listeners can enjoy discovering one of the greatest themes of Italian giallo cinema.
