| 2022-03-01 - 4:19 pm - Trailer for the remake of "Watch out, we are mad" released |
 |
As we reported last year, the Italians have made a remake of the Bud Spencer and Terence Hill classic Watch out, we're mad. Now the movie, starring Edoardo Pesce and Alessandro Roia, is ready. Today the theatical trailer was released and on 23 March it will start in Italian cinemas. Although both the music of the fire brigade choir and "Dune Buggy" can be heard in the trailer, the music for this remake is not by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis, but by Francesco Cerasi.
It is uncertain whether the film will make it to cinemas in Germany or other countries. However, since Netflix is co-producer, at least a broadcast on the streaming service is not unlikely in the near future.
And now take a look for yourself at what's on offer:

| 2021-12-02 - 3:24 pm - Italy now also has a Bud Spencer stamp |
 |
On the occasion of his 92nd birthday on 31 October 2021, Bud Spencer was also honoured with his own stamp in his home country Italy. The stamp is part of the series "Le eccellenze italiane dello spettacolo" (Italian Show Business Excellence) and was issued in an edition of 300,000. It is normally available in the postal branches of Poste Italiane and can also be ordered online there - but not from abroad. For the issue date there are also limited special products around the stamp, e.g. a collector's folder (2000 copies), a plastic credit-card-sized card with the stamp on it (1500 copies), a philanthropic info sheet with a text by Bud's children (1000 copies) and postcards and envelopes with the stamp of the first day of issue.
We have taken this stamp as an opportunity to add an info page to the database about all the stamps with Bud Spencer and Terence Hill that have been published so far. There you will also find more pictures of the new Italian stamp.

| 2021-11-08 - 8:53 am - The soundtrack to "Watch out, we're mad" comes on CD & LP! |
 |
No other soundtrack has Bud Spencer and Terence Hill fans been waiting for as long as the one for the film Watch out, we're mad. When the film was released in 1974, there was only one single with the title song Dune Buggy and the track "Across the fields" on the B-side. After that, there was nothing until today. But this is changing now!
Beat Records, in collaboration with Cabum and Digitmovies, has announced the release of the complete soundtrack by brothers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis on CD and LP! Both versions will be released on 13 December 2021. There is no exact track list yet, but we are promised "Dune Buggy", both vocal and instrumental, "Across the fields", the firemen's choir, violin music, ballroom music, various background sounds and much more.
From 17 November it will be possible to pre-order the soundtrack. The first places to go should be the websites of Beat Records and Digitmovies. One day before the release, on 12 December, the soundtrack will be presented to the public in the presence of the De Angelis brothers at the Music Day in Rome.

| 2021-10-28 - 11:37 am - The new album from Oliver Onions is out now! |
 |
Tomorrow is the day. "Future Memorabilia", the new album by Oliver Onions, will finally be released. The brothers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis, who form the duo "Oliver Onions", have been in the music business since the 1960s, but only became internationally known when they started composing music for films in 1971. Now, 50 years and over 200 soundtracks for cinema and TV productions later, the brothers present ten of their most popular songs in a new, modern style on their new album.
For the album, Oliver Onions re-sung the Spencer/Hill title songs "Dune Buggy", "Bulldozer" and "Flying through the Air" on their own. For the seven other songs, Guido and Maurizio brought in guest musicians. The version of "Banana Joe" sung with Bud Spencer will be on the album, and also a German-Italian version of the super hit "Santa Maria" sung with Roland Kaiser. For the new version of "Sheriff", the title song from "The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid", the brothers were able to win cult actor and singer David Hasselhoff. In addition, there are several collaborations with artists who are very successful in Italy, such as Tommaso Paradiso (Orzowei), Elio e Le Storie Tese (Coro dei pompieri - the famous fire brigade choir from "Watch out we're mad") and Claudio Baglioni (Sandokan). Baglioni already published his own version of "Sandokan" on his album "Anime in gioco" in 1997 and now sings the song together with Oliver Onions for the first time. This version is accompanied by cellist Tina Guo, who also enriched songs composed by Hans Zimmer with her cello. The album closes with the ballad "We believe in Love", which is sung together with musical singer Elhaida Dani to the melody of "Verde".
The album will be available digitally tomorrow on all known streaming services. For fans and collectors, however, there is also a CD and a limited LP. The CD contains a booklet and five stickers as a bonus. The LP is a yellow record in a sleeve which, when opened, presents a three-dimensional model of the record cover.

| 2021-09-21 - 3:57 pm - Terence Hill finishes filming Don Matteo |
 |
Last saturday an era came to an end after 22 years. We had the opportunity to be there in Spoleto, Umbria, when Terence Hill's last take for his hit series Don Matteo was shot in the afternoon in the church of Santa Eufemia. After the emotional last take, the whole crew celebrated their long-time leading actor first spontaneously in the church and later on the forecourt at a champagne reception. Producer Luca Bernabei thanked Terence Hill in a speech and of course Terence Hill thanked the crew afterwards for the great cooperation in the last years. Terence Hill's last day of shooting ended with a group photo of the crew on the cathedral steps of Spoleto. For Hill, this day marked the end of a significant period in his film career after 13 seasons with a total of 259 episodes. However, he is not thinking of retirement now, but will devote himself to new projects with a little distance. Meanwhile, the series "Don Matteo" continues with a successor. We have summarised our impressions of the set and the emotional last take in a small report for the database. Enjoy reading!
