Cinevox Record is pleased to present the complete OST and for the first time in stereo by Ennio Morricone from “The Bird with the Crystal Plumage”, directed in 1969 by Dario Argento. The artistic synergy Argento-Morricone began precisely with “The Bird with the Crystal Plumage” in 1969, and then continued with the other classic “The Cat o ‘Nine Tails” (1970) and “Four Flies on Grey Velvet” (1971) . The two artists worked together again in 1995, after a break lasting twenty-four years, on the occasion of “The Stendhal Syndrome” and then in 1998 with “The Phantom of the Opera.” On records this OST was issued by Cinevox in 1970 on the album (in mono) MDF 33/31, while in the US Capitol released a 33 rpm in stereo (Capitol Records ST-642) with material in part alternative than the Italian record and with a bizarre tracks list. Italian nine tracks on the album (with the exception of the brief “Se sei stonato”) was reprinted in 1981 on label Cerberus (CEM-S 0108). Always in mono sound, this OST was then engraved on vinyl in Ciak series at low price(CIA 5036) and then the first reissue on CD of Ciak series (5087 CD-CIA) combined with the OST of “Four Flies on Grey Velvet” and the same mono reprinted material in Japan on label SLC (SLCS 7144). In 1998 Cinevox still has revived the OST in mono with two extra tracks (MDF 313). In recent times we have found the tapes in stereo of the original recording session, and this has allowed us, after a long and careful process of restoration and digitalremastering to present this OST with the best possible sound in homage to art film by Dario Argento and the music by Ennio Morricone. This CD contains the themes of the original 33 rpm LP in full stereo (except track 10 which has not survived in stereo and we did a stereo effect for listening purpose) and several unreleased tracks in full stereo (except track 19 of which the stereo mix does not exist. The listener can then travel in a unique and fascinating sound dimension with impressive clarity to seize every registered instrument and the special vocal performances of Cantori Moderni. A dream come true for fans of Ennio Morricone in the world and fans of the great Film Dario Argento. A de-luxe booklet with twelve color pages motivates like right iconographic testimony this very important music rescue.

イタリアを代表する恐怖映画作家ダリオ・アルジェントの記念すべき監督デビュー作！初のステレオ完全盤で登場！アルバム収録音源と未発表曲、全20曲収録。
トラックリスト古典推理小説「通り魔」を元に書き下ろした脚本を自ら映画化。撮影にヴィットリオ・ストラーロ、音楽はエンニオ・モリコーネと、気鋭の処女作とは思えぬ大物スタッフが集結した。斬新な構図と奔放なカメラ移動、トラウマが誘発する殺人、ナイフなどの小道具に対する奇妙なフェティシズムなど、全編にアルジェントの刻印がくっきりと押された傑作。
ローマに滞在する若き米人作家サム(T・ムサンテ)は、夜の画廊でナイフを手に揉み合う2人の人影を目撃する。サムの出現で現場から黒いコートの人物が逃走し、腹部に傷を負った美女モニカ(E・レンツィ)が残された。彼女は女性ばかりを狙う連続殺人鬼の新たな犠牲者になりかけたのだった。事件の参考人として警察に帰国を足止めされたサムは、作家特有の探求心から独自の調査を開始。殺人者につながる“水晶の羽を持つ鳥”という手掛かりをつかむが、事件は意外な展開を見せ始める・・・。監督：ダリオ・アルジェント、出演： トニー・ムサンテ、 エヴァ・レンツィ。1969年伊・西独。
