A little bit of music

This weekend we have a handful of reviews before our large Thursday upload.

- the superb, ebullient Berlin concert with the Oscar Peterson Trio, videotaped in 1985, and released by MVD Visual with a nice stereo & Dolby + DTS 5.1 remixes

- the latest volume in Quantum Leap/MVD Visual’s Live in Vienna series, with a 2005 concert featuring musicians Arni Egilsson, Niels-Henning Oersted Pedersen, Wayne Darling, John Hollenbeck, and Fritz Pauer

- a capsule review of Fantoma’s Hercules in the Haunted World DVD, which continues our archive of Mario Bava titles before Anchor Bay’s upcoming 6-disc box set April 3rd

- and a review of Armando Trovajoli’s moody score for Hercules in the Haunted World, released on CD by DigitMovies of Italy, in Vol. 5 of their Mario Bava Anthology series

Coming Thursday: an in-depth interview with writer/director Dante Tomaselli, in which he talks about his career as a successful independent filmmaker before production begins on his latest film, The Ocean.
