Download: 320 CBR MP3 from MegaUpload
Download: Lossless FLAC from MegaUpload

As per my usual methods the CD was ripped with EAC to the FLAC format. I then used foobar2000 to create the 320 CBR MP3 version. Both downloads include the EAC made LOG file and CUE Sheet file as well as a M3U play list file. Both include high quality artwork scans.

Please note that these two files are compressed RAR files and will need to be decompressed with something like WinRAR or WinZIP etc.

Until next time ... listen until your ear's bleed !!!

Please note that I originally ripped this using EAC (Exact Audio Copy) to the FLAC audio format then I used foobar2000 to convert the FLAC audio files to MP3 files. I used LAME 3.98.2 with the "-b 320" setting which basically creates a 320kbps CBR MP3 file which is the highest quality MP3 that can be made. I have included the LOG and CUE files from EAC so that you know the ripping was done correctly and of course this facilitates burning back to a standard music CD if you so wish. I also threw in a M3U playlist file.

Also included in the download are large TIFF images of the CD artwork along with smaller JPG images (such as the cover presented above) plus I embedded the smaller JPG image into each track so that you get a nice thumbnail image on your software/hardware player.

NON HO SONNO (aka SLEEPLESS)

Today I bring you the soundtrack to Dario Argento's NON HO SONNO aka SLEEPLESS (2001) with music by Goblin. This is a CD that came out in 2001 by Cinevox (catalog code: CD MDF 342 DK). This is a very special re-union of sorts as this features, for the first time in a long time, the classic Goblin line-up of Agostino Marangolo, Fabio Pignatelli, Claudio Simonetti and Massimo Morante. Unfortunately they managed only to get this one soundtrack done before breaking up yet again (the band still exists but with a slightly different line-up that most noticeably does not include Claudio Simonetti).

First let me say that this cannot hold a candle to the old stuff. This is no masterpiece ala Suspiria or Profondo Rosso. Having said that it is very solid and still has that Goblin sound and is overall a very good score. While not as good as "the old stuff" it is still very good and a definite must for all Goblin fans.

Here is the track listing courtesy of the Soundtrack Collector website:

01. Non ho sonno (04:07)
02. Killer On the Train (05:54)
03. Endless Love (04:38)
04. Arpeggio - End Title (04:27)
05. Ulisse (04:06)
06. Death Farm (04:06)
07. The Pig (04:57)
08. The Cat (03:15)
09. The Swan (01:38)
10. The Rabbit (03:13)
11. Inquiries (01:37)
12. Associated Dead (03:59)
13. Final White Week (04:46)
14. Non ho sonno - Main Title (01:56)

Total Duration: 00:52:39

Download: 320 CBR MP3 from MegaUpload
Download: Lossless FLAC from MegaUpload

These links were updated on 07/16/2011 and the Lossless FLAC upload is a proper EAC CD Rip complete with a LOG file and CUE Sheet file. Artwork scans are also included. The MP3 was created from that rip using "Easy CD-DA Extractor" and also includes the artwork scans.

The Cat O' Nine Tails

Previously I had posted the scores to Dario Argento's THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE and FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET (both by Ennio Morricone). Well finally I am now completing what is called Argento's Animal Trilogy by posting the 2nd film IL GATTO A NOVE CODE aka THE CAT O' NINE TAILS (1970 or 1971 depending on the source). Again this score is by the great Ennio Morricone and this CD is the 2006 release by GDM (catalog code: GDM CD Club 7037) which is the longest version of this great score and is considered to be complete.

Buio Omega

Today I present the GOBLIN soundtrack to the Joe D'Amato movie BUIO OMEGA (1979) aka BEYOND THE DARKNESS. The CD is a 2008 Cinevox release (catalog code CD MDF 631) and is the most complete version of the score ever released.

For some reason this doesn't yet exist on the SOUNDTRACK COLLECTOR website but I have requested that it be added. I'm not going to bother to list the tracks because they all have pretty much the same name (see image above).

Please note that I originally ripped this using EAC (Exact Audio Copy) to the FLAC audio format then I used foobar2000 to convert the FLAC audio files to MP3 files. I used LAME 3.98.2 with the "-b 320" setting which basically creates a 320kbps CBR MP3 file which is the highest quality MP3 that can be made.

I also threw in a M3U playlist file.

Also included in the download are large TIFF images of the CD artwork (front and back of the digipack packaging) along with smaller JPG images (such as the cover presented above) plus I embedded the smaller JPG image into each track so that you get a nice thumbnail image on your software/hardware player.
