My Crime Box set arrived today, very nice it is too. Cool little 20 page, full colour booklet with it containing locandine reproductions etc. Going to give it a listen this afternoon.

[Gary B.]

pre-ordered mine a while back, and really looking forward to hearing these.  good to know it's probably on its way.

My box set arrived here today.

I have listened to Cipriani's score this morning. It is a good one, although it's not stunning. Something between Nicolai's Défense de Savoir and Cipriani's own Cani Arribiati.

Nicolai's L'Uomo dellla Strada is very jazzy, with a prominent piano and some good horns and a fuzzy guitar now and then. As for now I prefer this one above Cipriani's score, but, as I said, I just received the CDs and these are my very first impressions.

I will devour the Big Racket after dinner. I am sure it will be a feast.

The booklet is a bit of a disappointment. Some sparse commentaries on the movies, little to no information about the music, but loaded with images from photobusta ads (colored grey-scale pix) and reproductions of the three locandina.

Anyway, no reason to complain. I purchased this box set for Euro 21, just seven for each CD and very fair postage. A good bargain, in particular because only scraps of these soundtracks had been released before.

[Jonny]

Yeah, 'tis a good deal, if only to have the scores in full on a CD each. I'm well pleased with my set.

 I LOVE the score to Il Grand Racket (the reason why I bought it), the Cipriani was good. The third one I'm not keen on at all.

While I wish Digit would have released Il Grand Racket separately, I am so thrilled to have this score (my favorite of the De Angelis brothers) it was worth putting the moolah out for. And I can't say no to more Cipriani - he's becoming a favorite composer of mine and seems to write some of the more enjoyable scores for crime films.

[Inspector Tanzi]

Cipriani - he's becoming a favorite composer of mine and seems to write some of the more enjoyable scores for crime films.

Agreed
even though a few of them are very similar i like the variations.

I enjoyed most of his music, but I don't really like his scores for HIGHWAY RACER or EMERGENCY SQUAD
