Danger: Diabolik (Ennio Morricone)

Having just purchased a copy of the Sycodelic release of this score (Syco 0011), I'm interested in knowing about the other cd version:

Pallottola Foro OTHR-1968

Could anyone who owns this alternative version advise whether or not its track listing is the same as the Syco release.

Many thanks,

Hi i'm an italian collector from Rome.
Pallottola foro version is the "official"release of this score,but the tracks are almost the same!
Your version if i well remember has got one more tracks named UNTITLED and it's the last on cd!
Pallottola foro version is a limited release but both are not really official and the original master tapes are only in the hands of MAESTRO MORRICONE which doesn't think at all to re-release.......so take care with your copy and love it!!!
see you soon

Riccardo:
I am very grateful for your detailed response.

It has taken me several plays to "get into" this score - it is a shame that the recording quality is not that good. Perhaps we shall get a proper release one day.

Best regards,

I wouldn't count on it ever being "officially" released as this (and Operation Kid Brother) seems to be one of the scores that Morricone hates and doesn't want released.

I have a "copy" of the soundtrack but the track lists only 33 tracks. There is a 34th track but it's completely incongruous to the soundtrack (sounds like someone playing Bowie's "Modern Love" on a portable Casio). Is that what your 34th track is also?
