Film Score Monthly, 1971. Used ... $29.99
Great stuff from Lalo Schifrin – his under appreciated score for young George Luca's paranoid sci fi thriller! THX 1138 has that sort of Ayn Rand, clean-clothed tyrannical government thing going on, and Lalo's score couldn't be more haunting and perfect! It's full of stark, clean kinda ... read more CD

Film Score Monthly, 1977/1980. Used ... $14.99
Two late 70s thriller soundtracks – back to back in a mighty sweet package! First up is Lalo Schifrin's score for the tense Charles Bronson thriller Telefon – music we've never seen on an original LP, put forward here in brilliantly remastered sound! Many numbers are quite tense ... read more CD

Super Fuji Discs (Japan), 1957. New Copy (pic cover)... $22.99
A rare soundtrack session from Japanese jazz legend Hideo Shiraki – maybe one of the earliest recordings we've ever seen from the drummer – and one that also features work from pianist Takeshi Inomata and saxophonist Hidehiko "Sleepy" Matsumoto as well! The cover's somewhat ... (Funky 45's, Soundtracks) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
Trunk (UK), 1974. New Copy ... $25.99
David Shire's wonderful score to The Conversation – a subtle mix of jazz and darker sounds that's one of the best things about this incredible film! Shire's definitely one of the cooler cats of American film scoring of the 70s – and with a groundbreaking project like this, he really ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
United Artists, 1975. Near Mint- ... $7.99
Farewell My Lovely is a great late Robert Mitchum film – kind of a 70s noir, featuring Mitchum as Philip Marlowe – and the music is kind of a reworking of an older style of dramatic crime soundtrack styles, with the additional of some more off-beat and edgey passages that create a more ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, Late 60s. Sealed ... $6.99
A tremendous little soundtrack – even if you've seen it a million times! Simon & Garfunkel always had a really dark quality to their music, but it never seemed to show as much on the pop charts as it did when used brilliantly by Mike Nichols in this important film. Their tunes emerge in ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Really beautiful electronics from the enigmatic Guy Skornik – an artist that we mostly know for his quirky concept record Pour Pauwels, but who sounds here like some of the best electronicians of the German scene of the 70s! All tracks are long and spun out – electronic, but with ... (Rock, Soundtracks) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Four Flies (Italy), Mid 70s. New Copy ... $18.99
A really great record that definitely lives up to its title and cover – a set that's sort of a cool 70s take on exotica modes from years past! The music here is almost all performed by Giuliano Sorgini – who plays drums and lots of percussion, then adds in electronics too – using ... read more CD
Motown, 1974. Very Good ... $29.99
Despite what you think of Edwin Starr otherwise, he did a great job on this soundtrack, which is every bit as funky as any of Willie Hutch's work for other Motown scores!

Decca, Late 50s. Very Good- ... Just Sold Out!
Not actually music with Kim Novak – but a set of musical backdrops by Morris Stoloff – designed as a package for the film Jeanne Eagels! The cover has a great color shot on the front, and smaller images of Kim on the back – and the music is surprisingly dark and moody. LP, Vinyl record album
(Black label pressing with deep groove.)
Columbia/Rebound, 1978. Used ... $14.99
A huge disco cash-in moment of the 70s – but a great one too, and a strong illustration of the power that Casablanca Records had in both the clubs and charts at the time! The movie and record were both a bit over-pressed upon release, but they nonetheless stand as a great snapshot of the way ... (Soul, Soundtracks) read more CD

Aris/Sonor (Italy), 1976. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $32.99
A pretty fantastic soundtrack to a movie that looks pretty darn spooky – not in the usual Italian horror way, but more in an earthy, ritualistic sort of mode! As part of that vibe, the music's got this great current of sex – some funky elements mixed with grittier sounds – often ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes bonus CD – which seems to have some bonus tracks too!)
Sonor (Italy), 1977. New Copy (pic cover)... $22.99
Two funky tracks from this rare Italian soundtrack! "Spell" has tight drums, a fast bassline, and this bold guitar line that echoes out almost with a western sort of vibe – but much funkier overall – especially when it gets a bit fuzzy in the middle! "M23" has a ... (Funky 45's, Soundtracks) read more 7-inch, Vinyl record
United Artists, 1968. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $24.99

USS, 1959. Near Mint- Gatefold ... $7.99
One of the coolest late 50s soundtrack albums we've come across in a long time – Dimitri Tiomkin's soaring, sweeping and spacey orchestral scores for the big budget animated short subject industrial film Rhapsody Of Steel!

United Artists, Mid 60s. Near Mint- ... $19.99
A fantastic score from the great Armando Trovajoli – one of his few 60s classics to get any sort of circulation in the US – and one of the best!

RCA/Down At Dawn (Italy), 1959. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99
Although Italian pianist Armando Trovajoli is probably best known to Dusty Groove customers for the many many groovy soundtracks he's scored, he began his career as a talented jazz musician, as you'll hear here on this rare session from 1959! The set's a nice cooker at times – but also lays ... (Jazz, Soundtracks) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Harvest (Australia), 1970. Near Mint- ... $14.99
Deeply introspective music penned for a 1970 Australian surf film – tracks that have a grounding in instrumental rock, but which also show plenty of trance-like and meditative modes as well! The titles are relatively short, but spin out with an open-ended quality that's almost like that of ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Really warm, whimsical early work from Piero Umiliani – music that comes from his first few years in the soundtrack scene, but which already shows some of the differences that set him apart from the rest!

An early 80s soundtrack from the great Piero Umiliani – but one that seems to echo some styles from deeper in his past, including some of of the jazz elements he used in his early days – and some of the more unusual sonic textures he created for his sound library projects in the 70s! ... read more CD
GDM/Dagored (Italy), 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $14.99
A groovy little soundtrack by the great Piero Umiliani!
