The soundtrack of ''4 Flies of Grey Velvet'' is one of the many Cinevox rarities, birthed more than 50 years ago by the genius of composer Ennio Morricone, in the heyday of Italian genre cinema, years in which real masterpieces were made, often innovative in various respects (plot, photography, colors, settings, screenplay. ..). "4 Flies of Grey Velvet" concludes Dario Argento's so-called 'animal trilogy,' and sees the director at an absolutely inspired moment, still probably unconscious of the indelible imprint he will leave on the history of world cinema with his later works. The film for some obscure reason was never officially released on videotape - except, perhaps, in an obscure French edition - and only recently was it finally released on optical disc, while of the soundtrack only a 45 rpm single was pressed at the time, before it was recovered in its entirety in the 1990s. In "4 Flies..." Morricone writes one of his most 'rock-oriented' soundtracks ever - without, of course, neglecting his indelible touch - also by virtue of the fact that the film's protagonist is a rock drummer. One senses echoes of Deep Purple, not coincidentally since the director would have wanted the English band to write the music, as it is no coincidence that Argento's most famous film is titled... Deep Red!

このサウンドトラックは、天才作曲家エンニオ・モリコーネが50年以上前に制作したCinevoxのレア音源の一つで、イタリア風俗映画の全盛期に制作され、様々な観点（プロット、写真、色彩、設定、脚本など）から革新的な真の名作が生まれた時代でもあります。 ダリオ・アルジェント監督のいわゆる「動物三部作」を締めくくる「４匹の蝿」は、この監督が、その後の作品によって世界の映画史に刻み込まれることになるとは、おそらくまだ気づいていない、まさにインスピレーションに満ちた瞬間の作品です。この映画は、なぜかビデオテープで公式に発売されることはなく、おそらくフランス版の無名のものを除いては、つい最近になってようやく光ディスクで発売された。"４匹の蝿"の中で モリコーネは、この映画の主人公がロック・ドラマーであるという事実もあって、彼の忘れがたいタッチを無視することなく、これまでで最も"ロック指向"のサウンドトラックを書き上げた。ディープ・パープルのエコーが聞こえるが、これは偶然ではなく、監督がイギリスのバンドに音楽を書かせたかったからである。ディープ・レッド！140g重量盤LP。限定盤。
