Sand Pebbles ... LP 20th Century, 1966. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$4.99
A really striking score from Jerry Goldsmith – penned with just the right sense of drama and tension for this mid 60s military thriller! Goldsmith's already working here with a full palette of colors – and Lionel Newman conducts the music with an added richness that seems to bring out ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Billy Preston & Syreeta/David Shire —
Fast Break ... LP Motown, 1979. Very Good ...
$1.99
Billy Preston & Syreeta handled the music for this slightly-lame, kind of strange Gabe Kaplan vehicle from the late 70s. The music is relatively fine, although the album lacks any totally funky moments. Instrumentals include "Books & Basketball", "Half Time", "The ... (Soul, Soundtracks)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Audrey Hepburn's back in Paris again – fooling around with another older man! This time it's William Holden, but fortunately Nelson Riddle's along for the ride to keep the music nice and groovy. Most of the stuff on here's kind of Frenchy instrumental, with the cliched kind of sound you'd ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A pretty sweet – and nearly forgotten – Quincy Jones soundtrack from the 60s – done for a film based on Carl Reiner's book and play of the same name, directed by Reiner himself! The film's set in the 30s, so there's a few period songs on the album that have an older jazz feel ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The film soundtrack version of this famous 60s musical, which was based around the sounds of Belgian singer Jacques Brel. The film version shares many similarities to the broadway one – translations by Eric Blau and Mort Shuman, vocals by Shuman and Elly Stone – but the overall sound ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A surprisingly nice soundtrack, written by Williams before his over-the-top fame in the 70s – designed to accompany this big-budget disaster movie, one of Irwin Allen's last great films. The score is mostly orchestral, but has some very nice moments – especially in the warmer and ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Maya ... LP MGM, Late 60s. Very Good+ ...
$0.99
Dramatic and overblown music to this dramatic and overblown film set in India – starring Jay "Dennis The Menace" North as a white guy who meets up with his famous hunter dad in India, and has to deal with a lot of animals. Despite an exciting looking cover and some interesting ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
An excellent soundtrack to one of the wildest Woody Allen movies ever made – a weird little film that has Woody dubbing fake English dialogue over a Japanese action picture! The music by Lovin Spoonful is equally great – a bit groovier than some of their other albums of the time – ... (Rock, Soundtracks)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Sort of a throwaway album of tracks designed to accompany the throwaway film of the same name – but also a pretty decent compilation of tracks by artists on the Cameo/Parkway label that features a few groovers by some of the label's soul artists. Titles include "The Fly", "Smas ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Kind of nutty stuff from this weird Blake Edwards film that starred James Coburn and Dick Shawn. The material's not as jazz-based as some of Mancini's other scores, but it does have a delightfully nutty sound that's in keeping with the kind of mad 60s film it was written for. The postwar memory ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A dramatic score for this all-star, big-budget film about international intrigue – with a setting that runs from Red China to the Vatican, and a set of stars that includes Anthony Quinn, Oskar Werner, David Janssen, and Laurence Olivier.

$3.99
Quite an important soundtrack – penned for a mid 60s French/American production directed by John Frankenheimer and starring James Garner, Yves Montand, Toshiro Mifume, and Francoise Hardy! The film's an auto racing one – in case you couldn't guess from the title – but the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Great grooviness from Neal Hefti – working here at the height of his 60s powers! The film stars Robert Morse, Barbara Harris, and Jonathan Winters – and the score's got a 60s screwball approach that mixes organ, woodwinds, percussion, and bits of strings together, all filtered through ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A strange film, but a great soundtrack! George Duning came up with an excellent batch of jazzy tracks for the film – and most of them swing hard and tightly, with strong jazzy solos, in a manner that's similar to some of Mancini's best scores of the late 50s. A number of tracks have odd ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

The genius of Neal Hefti comes through for us again! Have you ever stopped to listen to the Odd Couple theme? Really listen to it – break it apart with your ears, and let the strange and complex nature of the groove sink into your brain? It's mad stuff, we tell you – one of the most ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(360 Sound Masterworks pressing. Cover has some aging and ink stamps on back.)
Slammin soundtrack to this bio-pic which starred Sal Mineo as Gene Krupa, and which features music by Krupa himself, plus Anita O'Day and Red Nichols. Pretty trad and swing all around – but there's a lot of great drum work by Krupa, particularly the type that often got featured in the live ... (Jazz, Soundtracks)read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Obsession ... LP London/Phase 4, 1976. Very Good+ ...
$3.99
Herrmann's back in fine form on this mid 70s score for a Brian DePalma thriller – lots of swirling orchestral themes, handled here with a good degree of space, which makes the stronger musical statements really pack a punch! Titles include "Court's Confession", "The ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A pretty nice Andre Previn soundtrack for this late Billy Wilder film that starred Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau – plus the young Judi West, who sings a version of "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To" on the album. The rest of the tracks are split pretty evenly between light jazzy ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Despite the silly title and plot of this one – and despite the cover image by Jack Davis, which might imply some more groovy tunes – the overall record is pretty straight comedy scoring work, touched by some military themes, in keeping with the Russian invasion plot of the film. ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Stanley Myers —
Ulysses ... LP RCA, 1967. Near Mint- ...
$2.99
A very nice soundtrack for this obscure film loosely based on the novel by Joyce – clearly a tough task, given the scope of the original book! Myers' score is suitably crazy – with a strange array of orchestral pieces, moving in and out in a "suite" format, and sounding a lot ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Forget everything you know about "Raindrops Are Falling On My Head", and give Burt kudos for this gem of an album! Sure, "Raindrops" shows up here a few times – instrumentally, and in 2 BJ Thomas vocal versions – and it's not a bad tune at all. But the real gems ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Fantastic! And a very unique version of one of our favorite soundtracks of all time! The folks at United Artists recut Francis Lai's famous score to this film, but they did each track slightly different from the original – so where there used to be an organ solo, there's now a trumpet one; ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Vaguely exotic work from Dimitri Tiomkin – a rich soundtrack in the tradition of his earlier, more famous work, one that was written for this late 50s film set in the Himalayas.

A beautiful later score from the legendary Miklos Rosza – a masterpiece that draws on all of his many years in film, yet serves things up with a more subtle approach than before! There's a sense of space here that we don't always hear in Rosza – almost a pausing between the notes, ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
40s soundtrack genius Miklos Rozsa makes a strange comeback here – recording in Rome for a 70s Sinbad film with special effects by Ray Harryhausen.

An obscure jazzy soundtrack by Oscar Peterson, and one of his nicest albums from the late 70s!

One of Henry Mancini's best soundtracks – made even better!

One of the grooviest Henry Mancini soundtracks of the 60s – a wonderful blend of jazzy themes and action moments, and a record that's possibly better-remembered than the film for which it was recorded!
