OT: Soundtracks

[JordyG]

This was really more a soundtrack with a movie, but the soundtrack is interesting.

I was at the Fillmore show when Zappa and Flo and Eddie premiered this soundtrack. I went with about 20 friends, all of us occupied the first three rows. We'd all purchased those fake eyeglasses with the fake nose and mustaches. Frank walked out, saw us and was predictably speechless. After the triple take of course.

Still love it. I just purchased the original Broadway soundtrack on vinyl and the reissue.

 

[JordyG]

And this. Talk about polar opposites.

 

[JordyG]

But this thing splits my sides.

Sissy Spacek sang all of her role's songs in COAL MINERS DAUGHTER

 

[JordyG]

Everyone loved the title song. But for me this was just so brilliant, and the back story about O'Connor's performance and how the song really was a rip off of "Be A Clown" is just as interesting.

From the movie "Rock Star". No they don't let Marky Mark sing. Miljenko Matijevic from Steelheart does the singing. Lot of rock songs in this one.

That great love story, Lloyd and Diane. (Say Anything) Lot of good stuff on this soundtrack (Living Colour, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cheap Trick). But the iconic one is this one, and Lloyd's boombox.

In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel

Sergio Leone's "Dollars" trilogy - A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. The incredible music in all 3 was done by Ennio Morricone:

For classical sounding songs, John Williams does the most recognizable tunes. Jaws, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter.
For my tastes, I like Vision Quest, Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Heavy Metal (though the movie is weird).

Back in 1972, Chris Young graduated from The Gunnery School in Washington, CT. In 1980, he moved to Los Angeles and started writing film scores. Since then he has scored over 100 Hollywood films. This is his most iconic. Quite frankly the most epic score for a horror film.


Who is Christopher Young?

A couple of old TV shows, Peter Gunn and Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer had some good , jazz themed music.

I like the way period music is mixed into the story lines of "Call the Midwife" as it is effectively used to set mood and tone for the episodes.

I also really like the music used in "China Beach" and ABC's "Homefront", a show I really enjoyed and can't find anywhere on any of the streaming services. Ironically, the cost of the rights to the music used in the show is said to be the reason the program was never released on DVD.

When referencing Williams, How can you not include Jurassic Park? It literally got through over 200 study sessions my Sophomore year at UConn.

1. Singles
2. Almost Famous
3. Jurassic Park
4. Beautiful Girls
5. Dazed and Confused

"10 Things I Hate About You" I think was the high school movie for its era. Lots of good songs, including several appearances in the film by the band Letters to Cleo. It was the first I had heard of them.

Probably my favorite movie ever (I love teen movies and they don't get much better than this).

The scene with Heath Ledger singing "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" is ICONIC.

Still love it. I just purchased the original Broadway soundtrack on vinyl and the reissue.

Sondheim and Bernstein went above and beyond with this show. Lovely and exciting music, brilliant and topical lyrics, this one is hard to beat.

I remember hearing "Accentuate the Positive" on Homefront. Timely music ,good show. One of my wife's favorites.

We all remember the title song but there was other good music as well in this fine film.

I was going from quick memory, which at 50+ isn't as quick as it used to be. I normally tell folks if there's a song that as soon as you hear it you think of a movie, pretty solid chance John Williams did it.
He did Close Encounters as well, no?

I believe so, but I don't have time to look it up. (yet I can respond here...priorities).

...

Yes he did.

Honestly, I was about to call you out on Harry Potter, because I was under the impression that J.K. Rowling wanted no Americans in the cast (There are two, plus Chris Columbus directed the first two movies). I guess composer is not considered, "In the cast."

Dr. Zhivago is a favorite of mine (and so is Julie Christie)
