GREAT FILM AND TELEVISION THEMES

Anyone who has delved into my "Crime Jazz Collection" will know that I am a fan of Cyril Stapleton and his big bombastic orchestra. Although the LP cover (featuring the sixties icon "Twiggy") would suggest a collection of twenties flavoured compositions, it in fact contains some supreme arrangements of classic themes. Cyril lends his considerable skill to the likes of, Diamonds Are Forever, The French Connection and the always popular Persuaders theme. There are also some choice selections from other genre's covered too!

This great album was released in the "QS" quadraphonic sound! unfortunately we only have the two channels featured here :)

LAS VEGAS INTERNATIONAL PHILHARMONIC PLAYS 007 CLASSICS

Here we have the Las Vegas International Philharmonic performing their own versions of the Bond themes. For the most part these are pretty faithful arrangements but still manage to be quite unique compared to other versions. Not exactly in the same league as John Barry or Roland Shaw but very listenable none the less!
Cover scans included.

CHARLEY VARRICK

Dimich once again comes up with yet another great rip which has been on my wishlist for years. The score to the Don Seigel classic starring Walter Matthau from 1973. The music is composed by one of the masters of thriller scoring, Lalo Schifrin! I've designed some custom covers to house this great soundtrack. Enjoy!

HAMMOND BOND

Prepare to go undercover with some groovy tunes!

Ripped and scanned for the Crime Lounge by Isbum is this quality slice of keyboard funkiness. Let the German maestro Ingfried Hoffmann show you how to tickle those ivory's with complete control! The original LP was releases in 1966 with four bonus tracks from 1963 included on the cd re-issue. Bond has never been so (organ)ic :)

THE STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO

Here we have another fantastic dvd rip featuring music from the original pilot episode of the classic seventies series. A big thanks goes to Dimich for the hard work in extracting the audio from the dvd tracks. This is a really great listen which includes some great dialogue snippets that really enhance the mood, it's like watching an episode without having the TV on!
The music was composed by Pat Williams and includes some funky seventies tracks as you would expect but a few nice softer pieces too.
I've designed some covers to house this little gem, hope you like 'em!
