Digitmovies is pleased to release for the absolute first time, a double CD with the OST by Piero Piccioni for the comedy "I'm an ESP" (aka "Babasciò," original language title “Sono un Fenomeno Paranormale”).
Piero Piccioni composed one of his most brilliant soundtracks for this film. He uses sentimental and elegant themes to accompany the protagonist on his journey from Italy to India, including numerous pieces using sitar and tablas. On this OST, Edda Dell'Orso and her crystal voice is the exceptional guest star we can hear on numerous tracks.
Originally, General Music had released an LP (GM 30720) containing sixteen tracks in stereo. For our double album (total length 146: 32) we’ve included over an hour and a half of new material with film versions and alternate takes which we discovered in addition to the original master which had been assembled for the album. This album proves the artistic greatness of Piero Piccioni once again, not only for the huge amount of material recorded (most of which was not used in the film), but also the high quality of the scores, which are reprised in different versions and with different instruments.
