Roy's World ... LP Corbett vs. Dempsey, 2023. New Copy Gatefold ...
$20.9925.99
Beautiful music from Chicago, set to another Chicago-themed project – a film based around the Roy stories of writer Barry Gifford! Yet that literary reference aside, the music here has fantastic merits of its own, even if you've never read Gifford at all – a very different, more ...

Sexy ladies on the cover, and some equally sexy sounds underneath – served up in a perfect 60s Italian blend of jazz and bossa-based styles! Sweeping strings bring a nice sense of depth to some numbers, while others have a more intimate feel – either via spare guitar, or some jazzy ... read moreCD

Art Ensemble Of Chicago —
Les Stances A Sophie ... LP Pathe/Play Loud (Germany), 1970. New Copy (reissue)...
$27.9929.99
Probably the greatest album ever by the Art Ensemble of Chicago – and also one of their rarest! The album was cut for Pathe Marconi in Paris in 1970, and was the soundtrack to a film that was as obscure as the album. The group's never been finer – and plays with a creative tightness ...

A near-lost soundtrack for a near-lost film – music done for a movie that was banned in mid-70s Iran for a range of controversial themes – and one that has some equally controversial-sounding music!

Roma Bene ... CD Quartet (Spain), 1971. New Copy ...
$21.9924.99
A very groovy film about a very decadent scene in Rome – which you might expect from the image on the cover! The music is filled with lots of the best touches that Luis Bacalov brought to his cooler soundtracks of the time – some jazzy bits, some inspired by bossa nova, and then a few ... read moreCD
One of Burt Bacharach's finest moments, and a soundtrack that we never tire of hearing! Burt wrote all the tunes – and the album's a wonderful romp, with lots of odd twists and turns that are quite different from Burt's usual bag (baby!), but which still have all of the charm of his best ... read moreCD
Although composed by 70s sex-soundtrack genius Pierre Bachelet, this one's mostly a batch of jaunty, jagged little themes, a bit like Nino Rota's work for Fellini, with lots of similar touches. There's one striking number, though – "Ivory Coast Drums" – which has a weird ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Thunder Alley ... LP Sidewalk, 1967. Sealed ...
$24.99
A wild little soundtrack that's equal parts biker and hot rod – a great rocking rarity that really bridges two sub-genres of rockish sounds in the 60s! The set's one of Mike Curb's great soundtracks for AIP – and like some of the others, it features a set of lesser-known talents coming ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Original mono pressing – sealed! Cover has a small cutout hole.)
The great John Barry as a young man – stepping out here on songs that are a lot more rocking than his later fame as a soundtrack composer – served up in a massive 3CD box that collects together singles for Parlophone and Columbia, plus some early rock songs from films! The style here ... read moreCD

$14.99
One of the lesser-known John Barry scores of the 60s – penned for an equally lesser-known comedy that starred Michael Caine, Peter Sellers, Peter Cook, Tony Hancock, and Dudley Moore!

Les Baxter/Mike Curb/The 13th Power —
Wild In The Streets ... LP Tower, 1968. Near Mint- Gatefold ...
$9.99
Hilarious! This is the soundtrack to a goofy late 60s shocker film about the time when hippies and young folks would take over America. Les Baxter handled the musical score for the film, but the real treat is the schlocky rock tracks – written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, with ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Yes, it was a mega-hit – and yes, it was one of those records that everyone who lived through the 70s seemed to own at one time – but after all these decades, you can't deny the power of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack – especially for the way that it mixed club soul classics ...

A killer little soundtrack – and one that's quite different than the usual blacksploitation set, but still pretty funky overall!

Le Magnifique ... LP Polydor/Universal (France), 1973. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ...
$34.9939.99
A very different soundtrack than usual from the great Claude Bolling – not the "jazz meets classical" work that would bring him fame at the end of the 70s, nor the more trad jazz modes of his 60s recordings – and instead a fully-fleshed film score that's filled with wonderful ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
An obscure soundtrack, but a great one too – a set of tunes of varying lengths and styles, but all coming together in a really great way!

A lost soundtrack gem from the great Sean Bonniwell – an artist you might know from his 60s hits in The Music Machine, and one who uses all that sonic experience in a mighty nice way on this overlooked b-movie score from the early 70s!

One of the later albums cut by the Brady Bunch crew – a bit towards the end run of the show, and with a feel that's arguably hipper than some of their other records!

(Original pressing! Cover has edge wear, some surface wear.)
An overlooked score from the great Roy Budd – one that we're not sure ever made it to vinyl back in the day – and which is presented here in a nicely expanded version! The music has that tense quality that made the non-groovy cuts from Budd's Get Carter score so great – and which ... read moreCD
A rare Roy Budd score for a film that starred Michael Caine – a tipoff that you're likely in for the same territory that Budd handled for Caine's classic appearance in Get Carter! The vibe here is slightly different, but does share some similar great elements – including occasional use ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Gosh, we can't believe how wonderful this is! The Bugaloos were a toss-off Saturday morning TV show in the early 70s – with a singing group of insect-kids, clearly designed to cash in on the success of The Archies and Josie & The Pussycats. Despite those origins, though, the group were ... (Rock, Soundtracks)read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Very weird soundtrack to this spooky 70s film starring Peter Boyle!

A warm and sexy score from Stelvio Cipriani – penned with a beautiful blend of woodwinds, keyboards, and sweet bossa-styled grooves! There's a bit more fullness here than in some of Cipriani's more erotic work, and a bit more groove too – although most of the music moves at a ... read moreCD

A record that's not only a landmark in Jamaican music – but also a set that was to reggae what Curtis Mayfield's Superfly was to 70s soul!

A Batman knock-off record – but a really great one!
