I too have this in vinyl. I got after seeing the French film of the title. Interestingly, there is a picture of him in is Jag XKE on the back of vinyl cover and in this CD. It is one of his earliest and one of best efforts. And yes, I am that old.

I'd orginally bought this album when I was, 18, many years ago. All I can say is that I am happy to have it in my possession again.

This is a weird thing to write about in a review but I was hunting around for any info on my Dad's movies that I thought had faded off into oblivion, and up comes the theme song for "Any Number Can Win." My Dad was writing under the pen name of John Trinian, he also wrote another great movie ( filmed in San Francisco in 1965) with really good music. He wrote "Once a Thief" under the name, Zekial Marko. The score was written by Lalo Shifrin, another awesome composer. Both these movies are pulp fiction crime dramas written in true beatnik style with hep-talkin-jive speak. The music is so ahead of it's time in both films and captures the times so well! Thank God for computers to help locate all this obscure stuff!

Had the 33 LP album years ago ... with scratches and static ... now the magic is back and better than ever.
