Gli Arcangeli (The Archangels) (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Dagored present the first vinyl reissue of Sandro Brugnolini's Gli Arcangeli, originally released in 1964. Italian composer and alto sax player Alessandro Brugnolini - composer behind 1970's Overground (CNPL 801LP) and L'Uomo Dagli Occhiali A Specchio (1975) - launched his career playing in the super jazz band inspired by Miles Davis, The Modern Jazz Gang. Later, he became very prolific as a composer and performer under his own name, as well as under pseudonyms (such as Narassa). One of the first pure jazz soundtracks for film belongs to him: it was 1963 and the movie was Enzo Battaglia's Gli Arcangeli. Featuring the legendary American singer Helen Merrill, here it is, one of the all-time rarest Italian jazz LPs. Includes two bonus tracks. Color vinyl; Edition of 500.
