the wait was worth it,

This review is from: Dollars (Audio CD)
after 30 years Dollar$ has made it to CD and the wait was worth it. One of Quency Jones best scores is a pleasure to listen to without the snap, crakle or pop.I just i hope i don't have to wait another 30 years for the DVD of the movie to get on the market.

Jazzy and spooky,
This review is from: Dollars (Audio CD)
A thoroughly entertaining soundtrack album. "Money Is" and "Do It To It" kick butt, and "Redeye Runnin' Train" is a lot of fun, especially if you picture that chase scene in the movie while listening. But what I really love are the instrumental mood pieces. As fits their purpose in the film, "Snow Creatures", "Candy Man", and "Kitty with the Bent Frame" combine supremely cool jazziness --special thanks to my man Ray Brown on acoustic bass!-- with an unmistakable air of menace. Sardonic and spooky, they are audio film-noir to the max. If you're stuck in a dull commute or monotonous workday, try playing these in your head (or your portable player)-- you may find they help you transform your situation into a cinematic adventure. Tasty guitar solo on "Candy Man," by the way. "Brooks' 50-cent Tour" reprises and reconfigures some of these themes, and adds others in a cool funky mode-- plus it has a sitar/tabla/Fender-bass interlude which anticipates the Suns Of Arqa by about ten years. Now I'm trying to find out if any of Quincy's other '60s-'70s soundtracks may evoke that same noir mood.

Keep On Smiling!,

If you have not heard of the movie, don't blame Quincy Jones. As others who have bought this soundtrack...this is a gem.
Quincy Jones uses his genius at harmony throughout, and pure jazzy/funk rhythms. But the real surpise here, for almost anyone, is the version of the old standard by DeWolf and Roberts "When You Are Smiling," sung beautifully by Roberta Flack with gorgeous vocal choir. I promise you, the whole disc is worth the "soul" within this version...best ever! "Rubber Ducky" is just "Baby Elephant Walk" fun! The movie went bust, but the music will surely live on thanks to Warner Music.
