Customer Reviews
Would make a good bird scare
Don't even think about it unless you're an Italian Job anorak. If there's any stock left they should put it the back of a van and "blow the bloody doors off". The 1* is for Matt Monro's 5* track.
Unfortunately only for the Fan
1st things 1st, I am a HUGE fan of the film, I own it on most available formats and even though I own it, I still watch it when it comes on the TV. Also I am grateful for the fact that this album is now available to the masses on CD, something I thought would never happen, but this soundtrack falls short for mainly two reasons.
1. Only if you have watched the film and studied it very closely will all of the music on this soundtrack album make sense, other wise most of the material will sound like average 60's bar jazz. It is only the fantastic 'get a blommin move on' and it's variants, and the versions of 'on days like these' which save this album.
2. Like a previous reviewer, instead of just a straight re-issue, I think putting some of the classic dialogue in between the tracks i.e. 'shorten the sleeves would you love I'm not a gorilla' would have not been too much to ask as other re-issue soundtracks i own have done this. This would have taken advantage of the CD format with the extra time available compared to an LP.
It would be too easy to get carried away and simply say this soundtrack is great by it's association with the film, but to my mind a soundtrack is supposed to capture the essence of the film, and without any of the fantastic and utterly classic dialogue included, it fails to that.
GREAT SOUNDTRACK FOR GREATEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great soundtrack...i especially like the intro music to the movie which kicks some serious arse.....possibly the greatest movie of all time ,.....across the world....awesome
