Lalo Schifrin-Bullitt ALL MOVIES SHOULD HAVE SOUNDTRACKS THIS COOL! This is a recent re-recording of the score from the 1968 Steve McQueen cop movie, famous for the San Francisco hills chase scene. Lalo Schifrin is the composer of many classic soundtracks for film and television, notably 'Dirty Harry', 'Mission: Impossible' and 'Enter the Dragon'. 'Bullitt' represents Lalo Schifrin at his finest: jazzy film music with funky breakbeats and interlocking orchestral and other instrumental elements. I recommend all tracks, start with tracks 2, 10, 11, 14, 18 then 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 12, 13, 15, 17. 1) Theme song, with claves, horns, guitar, tone changes, drumbreaks and copshow grooves 2) *Low rumbling ominous piece that increases pace 3) Low keys on the piano, string hits, grinding percussion--long slow interlude then exciting finish 4) Groovy Shifrin a-go-go. Mid-tempo sexy with flute 5) Swinging big band with vibes 6) Travelin' tune, relaxed and orchestral 7) Tense tune foreshadowing some nefarious deed 8) Shorter, tighter version of main title 9) Slow post-coital jazz, muted trombone 10) *Again, a tighter version of the movie version 11) *Up-tempo jump with some fat organ 12) Acoustic guitar version of main title 13) Happy supermarket bossa 14) *Flute, organ, up-tempo and cool 15) Simple, rhythmic bassline with guitar, flute and piano 16) Ballad for female lead 17) Gameshow groove (hilarious considering title) 18) *Groovin' recap of main title Tom Purcell, August 2000 | ||
