A groovy vibrant jazz / soul / funk soundtrack for an imaginary hard-boiled movie from the 70s! The varied selection of instruments (organ, flute, moog, bongos, cello, violin, drums, bass, acoustic and electric guitars etc.) blend flawlessly into each other and make this album an intense and inspired trip... in fact it may turn into a movie in front of your very eyes! feat. the legendary Edda Dell'Orso on vocals and her husband Giacomo on string arrangements!!!
The title of this damn fine album In the Eye of the Cat is a reference to the Italian giallo film genre of the 1960s and 70s. These lurid murder mysteries/thrillers, feat. black gloved killers lurking in the dark, gorgeous young ladies being chased and artistic displays of blood and cruelty, usually had horrifying and imaginative film titles, in many cases with the words, eye(s), black, blood, death, killer and the name of an animal of some sort thrown in the mix. [...] A nice homage to giallo maestro Dario Argento from fellow Roman Alex Puddu.
