NotesSpace: 1999 premiered in Italian theatres on January 14, 1975, and was created through the process of editing together three episodes from season one of the TV series: Breakaway, Ring Around the Moon and Another Time, Another Place. The series' original iconic score was not used for the Italian theatrical version (the series originally premiered on British television on September 4, 1975), instead being replaced with a fascinating score by Ennio Morricone, who composed original material featuring frantic jazz themes and futuristic electronic sequences reminiscent of Barry Gray's work on UFO. This release also includes avant-garde material by Morricone that was carefully selected as background music for various scenes in the movie, taken directly from the RCA promotional series of library vinyl LPs titled Dimensioni Sonore, performed by symphonic orchestra and presented here in full stereo. Also included is the final large orchestral theme heard over the end credits, featuring vocals by Edda Dell'Orso and I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni. This theme was reused for the 1979 mini-series Orient Express, again scored by Ennio Morricone. Comes with a full-color, 20-page booklet containing archive stills, a foreword from Fanderson chairman Nick Williams and plot synopses and credits for the three original episodes.

Space 1999 Ennio Moricone unique soundtrack for italian TV
This is a rare and out of the usual musical rate of celeb composer Ennio Morricone. A specific soundtrack that replaces Barry Gray's masterful score for Sci-fi cult series Space 1999 first series. Musical oddity holding by itself, for jazz atuned listener and those who just like good music. Not the best from Morricone, but certainly the most curious good music a TV show ever had.

Essential Morricone
For those who like the more experimental approach: free avant-garde jazz, strange electronic transmissions and a most beautiful final track that makes for a soft landing.

Spooky gr8!
This is some of the spookiest arrangements ever! Frighteningly delicious! Right up there with Stockhausen,Sobotnik,Experimental Audio Research,Electric Miles Davis,etc.
