Harpsichord/cymbalom, developed on strings and piano, returning to main Voice, opening with acoustic guitar and flute, joined by The second track, "1970", has some very interesting elements (including a new atonal, twelve-tone-ish "Tension theme"), but was sadly unused in the film. Some additional bass patterns also surface (having 6, 8 or 12 notes), but these usually only appear once, or were unused in the film. In any case, the main groove theme for "Cat" is based on a 5-note figure, and this appears several times in different tempos and arrangements.

John Zorn approached things from the other end of the telescope when, in his 1986 Morricone tribute album "The Gig Gundown", he took Morricone's "straight" themes and revisited them by placing free improvisation textures over thematic groove structures. This concept of atonal music made "palatable" by blaxploitation grooves would also resurface a few years later in David Shire's 1974 score for The Taking of Pelham One Two Three). Morricone's technique of using abstract textures and free-floating themes continued from the previous Argento film, but this time he incorporated a tense, funky bass groove for most of its suspense scenes, lending it a somewhat more playful texture. This film is probably not quite as vivid or stylistic as 1970's "The Bird With the Crystal Plumage", but it still has a fascinating and fun score (the plot is like a very long episode of Columbo and frankly not really worth getting into).

Ennio Morricone's second collaboration with director Dario Argento resulted in his score for 1971's "The Cat O' Nine Tails" (Italian: "Il gatto a nove code"), again conducted by Bruno Nicolai and featuring contributions from the siren-like vocals of Edda Dell'Orso.
