Lalo Schifrin Receives Honorary Oscar


Teasing the Korean

Recommended Posts

Yes, he sure deserved it. Though as a jazz-only-listener   I´m not familiar with most of the stuff that maybe made him famous for broader non-jazz audiences , but I´m very very aware about his jazz-linked achievements. To me, that means his associatins with Dizzy and his great compositions. I also like the later collaboration from 1977 (Free Ride)  with the great tune "Unicorn", a tune I love and heard Diz play on several occasions with his great pianoless quartet.

It also has a great foto of Diz and Lalo on the cover. Fantastic !

As someone who has his film scores and his jazz albums, I do think that film music is where is where he truly excelled artistically.
