"Paranoia"
Original Bootleg Motion Picture Soundtrack
We are pleased to introduce for the very first time the bootleg soundtrack of the film "Paranoia" (a.k.a. "A Quiet Place To Kill"), directed in 1970 by Umberto Lenzi, starring Carroll Baker, Jean Sorel, Anna Proclemer and Marina Coffa. We are in front of a giallo-thriller psychedelic at the same time very beautifully filmed by Lenzi, in which constants camera movements, zooms, nice locations in Palma de Mallorca and, above all, the wonderful music make this a more than wonderful film.
Helen (Carrol Baker), after recovering from a near fatal car crash that took place during a professional race, discovers she is broke. She decides to accept an invitation to stay at her ex-husband's (who she once tried to murder in response to his indiscreet infidelities) extravagant villa and learns that it was not Maurice (Jean Sorel) who sent the invitation, but his new wife, Constance (Anna Proclemer). Constance wants to recruit Helen to assist in her diabolical plot to murder Maurice, but things go wrong and Constance ends up getting killed instead! Her daughter Susan (Marina Coffa) arrives shortly after and knows something isn’t quite right with the story of her Mother’s accidental death. All this is only the beginning.
The music for this film, if we rely on the credits, was composed by spanish Gregorio Garcia Segura, well known in Spain but little or nothing beyond, and the orchestra conducted by Piero Umiliani. The main title of the film, "You" is composed by Terry Umiliani, although in reality its the collaboration between Lilian Terry and Piero Umiliani. The discoteque-beat song (already used in the previous Lenzi film, "Orgasmo") is "Just Tell Me", performed by Wess & The Airedales and composed by Douglas Fowlkes and Piero Umiliani.
Actually, what we believe, is that all the music of the film is composed by Piero Umiliani as to the big connoisseurs of Italian music may know, that the melody and other versions of the theme throughout the film contains motifs clearly Umiliani. Why the music was credited to the Spanish composer, can only be due to rights issue, for this hispano-italian co-production. Still, we wanted to respect the original credits and have credited the music to Garcia Segura.
The soundtrack of the film, to our knowledge, was never released in any format, 7 ", LP or CD. This is, then, the first time we can hear the whole soundtrack listened in the film on this bootleg that we have done through editing and mastering the music directly from the movie (unfortunately we have no access to the original master tapes and so this is the only way to extract the music of the film). For this reason, we apologize if the sound quality is not what you expect. We have tried to edit and cut the music to make it sound the best posible.
Nos complace presentarles por primera vez el bootleg de la banda sonora original de la pelicula "Paranoia" (aka "A Quiet Place To Kill", "Una Droga Llamada Helen") dirigida por Umberto Lenzi en 1970, y protagonizada por Carroll Baker, Jean Sorel, Anna Proclemer y Marina Coffa. Estamos delante de un giallo-thriller psicodelico a la par que muy elegantemente filmado por Lenzi, en el que los movimientos constantes de camara, zooms a doquier, las localizaciones en Palma de Mallorca y, sobretodo, la maravillosa musica hacen de éste un mas que magnifico film.

La musica para este film, si nos basamos en los creditos, fue compuesta por el español Gregorio Garcia Segura, bastante conocido en España pero poco o nada fuera de ella, y la orquesta conducida por Piero Umiliani. El tema inicial de titulos de credito del film, "You" es compuesta por Terry Umiliani, aunque en realidad se trata de la colaboracion entre Lilian Terry y Piero Umiliani. El tema "beat" y discotequero de la pelicula (ya utilizado en la anterior pelicula de Lenzi "Orgasmo") es "Just Tell Me" performed by Wess & The Airedales, compuesto por Douglas Fowlkes y Piero Umiliani conjuntamente.
En realidad, lo que nosotros creemos, es que toda la musica del film es de Piero Umiliani ya que para los mas grandes conocedores de la musica del italiano, podran saber que la melodia y demas versiones del tema principal a lo largo de la pelicula contiene motifs claramente Umiliani. El "por que" acreditaron la musica al español quizas se deba a un tema de derechos en esta coproduccion hispano-italiana. Aun asi, hemos querido ser fieles a los creditos originales y hemos acreditado la musica a Garcia Segura.
La banda sonora de este film, que nosotros sepamos, nunca fue sacada al mercado, ni en 7", ni LP ni por supuesto CD. Ésta es pues, la primera vez que podemos escuchar la BSO que suena en el film en éste bootleg que hemos realizado gracias a la edicion y masterizacion de Javier Di Granti desde la propia pelicula (lamentablemente nosotros no tenemos acceso a las cintas originales y ésta es la unica manera de poder extraer la musica del film). Por esta razon, pedimos disculpas si la calidad de audio no es la que esperarian y, si en ocasiones, se oyen efectos de sonido tales como pasos, puertas o motor de coches, etc. Hemos intentado, en la medida de lo posible, editar los cortes para que la musica se oyera con la maxima solitud posible.
