| Description: | Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing Italia, presents a revised, remastered 45th anniversary reissue of Ennio Morriconeâ??s bizarre sci-fi score for Aldo Ladoâ??s THE HUMANOID (1979), a sort of parody-reboot-plagiarism-homage to the recent STAR WARS success that featured a cast of actors famous for their recent appearances in THE SPY WHO LOVED ME and MOONRAKER: Richard Kiel, Barbara Bach and Corinne Clery. The story encompasses stealing revolutionary scientific inventions, mad doctors and crazy plans for world domination. Because of this chaotic storyline, Lado went by the pseudonym George B. Lewis (just as Luigi Cozzi used the name Lewis Coates in STAR CRASH). This made it seem like an international production, and in his case, it wouldnâ??t affect his career as a serious director. Ennio Morricone had scored almost all of Aldo Ladoâ??s films since his debut in LA CORTA NOTTE DELLE BAMBOLE DI VETRO, so it was only logical that he should also compose the music for THE HUMAMOID. With the huge success of John Williamsâ?? revival of symphonic scoring in STAR WARS as a precedent, Morricone adopted a completely different approachâ??toward electronic music, pastiches of classics by Beethoven and Bach, and a fascinating sound close to the avant-garde music heâ??d encountered during his time with the Gruppo dâ??Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza. His score for THE HUMANOID quickly became a cult classic, and the LP was released by RCA in 1979. Subsequently, the same program was released on CD in 1992, and an expanded edition, quickly sold out, came in 2010 from GDM. This new edition, remastered by Chris Malone and supervised by Claudio Fuiano, celebrates the 45th anniversary of the film and one of the most bizarre scores ever penned by the Roman genius. - A revised, remastered 45th anniversary reissue of Ennio Morricone?s music score for the 1979 sci-fi film "The Humanoid" directed by Aldo Lado (credited as George B. Lewis). |
