The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 David Newman Bigger and better - Atlantic David Newman - Keep the dream alive - Prestige (with strings & sweetening - actually a lot better than Keepnews gave it credit - though I do like the CD with the sweetening removed, too).

porcy62 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Morricone - Metti una Sera a Cena (Dagored) Ah! Nice one. Morricone wrote lots of film scores, people are used to consider his works after Leone's westerns, but lesser known and lesser successfull movies have great music too, often better then the movies itself. now spinning: VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO, Verve, original stereo.

Teasing the Korean Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Morricone - Metti una Sera a Cena (Dagored) Ah! Nice one. Morricone wrote lots of film scores, people are used to consider his works after Leone's westerns, but lesser known and lesser successfull movies have great music too, often better then the movies itself. I especially love Morricone's late 60s-early 70s scores for giallo films and also what I can describe only as "groovy Euro films." Love the juxtapositions of Bacharach-esque chord progressions, breathy wordless female vocals, fake rock elements and dissonant orchestral mayhem that sometimes show up within a single soundtrack. Porcy, I want to visit Rome but I'm scared it won't look like it does in early 70s films and Guido Crepax cartoons! Please tell me the women still wear maxi-skirts and the guys are wearing turtlenecks with flared pants, and everyone is driving around in minis! Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) Bud Shank - Magical Mystery - World Pacific (stereo) Jazz guys trying to get hip to the sounds of today! Beatles side has mini psych freakouts between each track. "Fool on the Hill" sounds like Morricone circa 1969! Edited January 25, 2009 by Teasing the Korean Quote

Teasing the Korean Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Hugo Montenegro - The Man from U.N.C.L.E. - RCA (Black label, stereo) TV soundtrack albums from back in the day often had little or nothing to do with the actual music from the shows. This album has Montenegro's arrangements of actual music from the show by Jerry Goldsmith, Lalo Schifrin, Morton Stevens and Walter Scharf. Captures that international mid-60s spy aesthetic very well. Quote

porcy62 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Porcy, I want to visit Rome but I'm scared it won't look like it does in early 70s films and Guido Crepax cartoons! Please tell me the women still wear maxi-skirts and the guys are wearing turtlenecks with flared pants, and everyone is driving around in minis! The fashion is definitely changed, the skirts are much shorter, not such a bad thing IMHO, the Cinquecento and Mini are still there, but they looks pretty differents. Anyway I can offer you a sumptuous dinner at my place and a feast of mono listening. And lots of interesting exhibitions and musical events, for such things Roma is much better now then in the early 70s. And the Colosseo and all those old stones are still at their place. Quote
