Dirty Harry - The Original Score by Lalo Schifrin

CD-Charts > Music > Big Band
by: Original Soundtrack

Release Date June 07, 2004
This is a cool collection of songs from the Dirty Harry films. There's only one dialoge in the album and it's that classic "do u feel lucky??" by Eastwood. Album opens with that and right after the dialogue we get right to the point. Warm rhodes, funky bass and drums with some dissonance stringchord we go to the "Main Theme" which is Lalo Schifrin in his best. The "Scorpios theme" is another killer with its human vocal line and groovy beat. There are also some disturbing stringwork and "suspense" music which does not hold up so well without its original concept. And when we get to the 80's stuff it's just seems that Schifrin has lost his way at some point. Plastic synthsounds and terrible sounding drum machines is more near to "Beverly Hills ... Read More:

The Best of Glenn Miller and His Orchestra

CD-Charts > Music > Big Band
by: Glenn Miller

Release Date April 01, 1996
The umpteenth collection of "the best of". I wonder why people still buy this kind of cynically thrown together products at all (because they don't care or don't know?); If you want to know what Miller was really about (warts and all) buy "the Golden Years": four discs with a generous helping of Miller's "best of" with a lot that's even better (and sometimes worse) thrown in for good measure.

Swing

CD-Charts > Music > Big Band
by: Various Artists

Release Date December 03, 2001
I am a big jazz fan, and my favourite jazz style is Swing. It has such an upbeat, dancy feel to it that can brighten up even the dullest day.

'Swing' is a fine compilation of classic songs from the golden era of swing. It contains the definative versions of some great songs (eg 'Beyond the sea', Bobby Darin; 'Satin Doll' Duke Ellington; 'Very thought of you', Billie Holiday) and some lesser known tunes.

All the recordings on this album are good and clear. On some compilation CD's the recordings are live or have poor quality sound, but that is not the case on 'Swing'.

Listening to this album will put you in the mood for spending lazy summer afternoons in the garden, with a glass of beer and a barbeque going. It ... Read More:
