Teasing the Korean Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Varese Sarabande is having a spring cleaning sale: https://www.varesesarabande.com/collections/on-sale-1?page=1 For the folks who frequent this site, of particular note is Franz Waxman's Crime in the Streets, originally issued on a Decca LP. https://www.varesesarabande.com/collections/on-sale-1/products/crime-in-the-streets If you love the sound of nervous, Twilight Zone jazz as much as I, this is a must-have, and it is only five bucks!

sgcim Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Wow! I never heard Waxman write in this idiom. At one point he wrote a thing for accordion, harp and piano; you're not gonna hear that very often. Too bad they don't have any Raksin in their catalogue; I love his noir writing. I just looked it up in the Meeker. That was Maynard on trpt., John Williams on piano, and Joe Mondragon on bass.

The highlight for me is the 13-minute track on side 1, about 5:20 in on the video above. It sounds like a Twilight Zone score. The whole LP is generally in that bag, although there is one raucous juvenile delinquent track also.

jlhoots Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 $4.50 to ship one CD. Still worth it, I guess, at that sale price. Cool looking cover painting too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasing the Korean Posted April 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 You can order at least 3 CDs for the same shipping price. You may find other things you like. For example, the 2-CD collection of Bernard Herrmann's music for the Alfred Hitchcock Hour is only ten bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
