Bright Moments Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) So today I watched the Steve McQueen movie "Bullitt" and I could swear that I saw Charles Mingus in the Jazz Club scene playing the bass. I did a google search and checked IMDB to try to see if I was right about it - but could not confirm or deny. Can anybody help?

marcello Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 A little searching brought up this: Meridian West featuring Larry Vogt (guitar), Julie Iger-Roseman (flute), Nat Johnson (bass) and Al Pimental (percussion).

JSngry Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) someone needs to teach me how to imbed the video! It's just like posting an image, only you use this icon instead of this one And it seems to only work with YouTube videos, and then only if the link's not yet been used in the thread.

Joe Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Always really liked what that band is laying down there for McQueen and Bisset... sounds quite a bit like what Gabor Szabo's groups were doing around the same time... assuming Meridian West never recorded on their own (sadly).

Teasing the Korean Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 There is/was a limited edition CD of the Bullitt score that contained both the WB LP version and the actual film tracks. It fit onto a single CD. Film Score Monthly, AKA FSM, released it. Well worth picking up. The tune in question is called "Song for Cathy." The film version is better than the LP version, IMHO. Lalo also did a re-recording of this music circa 2000, and while it is good, there was too much temporal and geographical distance from the original for it to work as well as it could have. This version is on Schifrin's own Aleph label. Not as good as the FSM, but the price is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
