  • Description

    Quartet Records presents a remastered CD reissue of the long-out-of-print soundtrack by Ennio Morricone for the 1983 police thriller COPKILLER (aka ORDER OF DEATH).
    Coproduced between Italy, France and the U.S., and directed by longtime Morricone collaborator Roberto Faenza, the
    filmstars Johnny Rotten (famous punk-star from the group Sex Pistols), Harvey Keitel and Nicole Garcia. The plot is about a pair of corrupt cops spending their illegal cash on an uptown New York City apartment.
    Morricone's score comes from the composer's fertile period of poliziotteschi thrillers and his collaborations with Henri
    Verneuil in Belmondo's French polars in the early 1980s. The music features the psychedelic, percussion-heavy and often ostinato-based cues that Morricone typically reserved for the steamy chaos of his crime-filmscores.
    General Music released the score on LP in France and Germany in 1983, and GDM on CD in 2002. This new edition
    contains the same program, produced by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler, rebuilt and remastered by Chris Malone from the first-generationstereo master tapes. The package includes a richly illustrated booklet with in-depth liner notes by Daniel Schweiger discussing the filmand the score.
