Alexander Hawkins Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 Just a quick query... There was a documentary on BBC 2 the other night about Stan Tracey. There was a section where they were talking about his work at Ronnie Scott's, and about which saxophonists he liked/found it harder to get on with from a personal and musical point of view. Anyway, one whom he got on well with personally and musically was Sonny Rollins, and they mentioned that Stan had played on his soundtrack to Alfie. Is this correct? Does the Impulse! album contain the actual performances used during the film, or is it reworkings of the film score? It's just that I thought Roger Kellaway played piano on the album... Anyway, if anyone could put me straight, it would be much appreciated - Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 The Impulse record is a re-recording of music from the soundtrack. Tracey plays on the real movie track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 Which leads me to ask - are there copies of the actual soundtrack recordings circulating amongst collectors? I know I've never seen one on a grey-market boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
