Nice post, Onya. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and those Italian score albums.

You gotta go.
Ive been a regular. Probably 30 times.
Dont go there expecting italian film scores or italian western dvds.
They have a hard on for american hollywood stuff.
You are more likely to find comic superhero posters, vampire diaries, all the blockbuster stuff before you find anything remotely leone or ennio.
But go for the wine and the pasta ragu.

Chris, would highly recomend the Amalfi/Rome trip, but don't expect to find many soundtracks! Make sure you visit Pompei. And yes it quite often comes down to Italy for me, whether Morricone, Nicolai, Lavagnino, Piccioni, Umiliani, Rustichelli, De Masi, Nascimbene, Cipriani, Donaggio etc etc......Dave

I spent a day in Ventimiglia in 1981 - an excursion during a holiday in the S of F. So far this is the only time I've stood on Italian soil.
We're pondering on a two centre Rome/Amalfi Coast trip for next year.
Hi Tall Guy,
My wife and I have been to Rome twice, it's a great place to visit, when you're there pay a visit to the Cinecitta Theme Park, open April to October.

Just get on the metro and travel to Cinecitta, the station is just outside the studio.
We loved Rome, the only downside was the lack of cd shops, we found one on Termini Station (Recordi) and another (Recordi) in Rome itself but I can't remember where, it's an age thing.
It's a fabulous place to visit, you should see the Colosseum, amazing place, how the hell did they ever build such a thing.

And go to the forum studios!!
And check out ennios house.
Maybe have some tuscan red in a trattoria nearby first.
Then some more tuscan red afterwards.
Carafes are good value. By glass 3 it will be the best you ever tasted!!

Thanks, Dave. I never expect to find soundtracks anywhere nowadays that doesn't have a screen and limited battery life.

I have never been to Italy, and it is high on my list of destinations, but I worry that I would be disappointed because I would expect everyone to look like characters in a giallo or polizia film.
Italy does not disappoint. You'll forget your preconceptions when you see the gorgeous buildings, the amazing countryside, and the trains that are always on time. Even the policemen were beautifully turned out.
(Just don't go there expecting to get away from cigarette smoke ANYWHERE.)

Chilly Sunday, wine, firewood... sounds like a perfect situation to be spinning HOME ALONE and HOME ALONE 2. Had that crossed your tiny mind, Onya?

Sorry, I meant STEPMOM. That's my fave for a chilly Sunday with firewood and wine. Onya? You like?
