I've received
Stelvio Cipriani's
The Great Alligator LP. It's got really good parts (the second track is an awesome funky track with horns and synths), but quite boring ones as well. The same label is putting out another
Cipriani LP next month,
Concorde Affaire '79 (samples:

I've listened to the samples of
Chopping Mall that's out soon on Waxwork Records and I quite liked them, but I don't know if I'll be able to find the record somewhere for a decent price including shipping. I'm pretty sure ordering from the label direct is out of the question due to high US shipping rates and the label's already high prices.
I've preordered
The Phantom of the Opera (on tape, as that's the cheapest option) that's due out in August on One Way Static. It's not a classic score but a modern recording by a band called
The Laze. I don't know them, but the samples are really good. Sort of prog rock with a lot of synth.
I'll have to listen to the soundtrack of
Creepshow. I've recently watched the film, but the soundtrack seemed nothing special to me. However, I've noticed that movies can distract attention from their soundtracks, so one might not appreciate a soundtrack as much as if one heard it without the movie. I'll also have to listen to samples of the above mentioned
Ulysses 31.
By the way, Death Waltz is having a sale, I think till the end of June.
The New York Ripper, for example, can be had for GBP 10.
