Psalm

Dramatic, dark and daring jazz compilation collected from a brace of late ‘50s exploitation movies and TV soundtracks. Featuring the masters of tension Elmer Bernstein and Henry Mancini plus a host of cameos from Miles Davis, Burt Bacharach to Andre Previn.

Including the theme music from Dragnet, 77 Sunset Strip and Peter Gunn along with highlights from Touch Of Evil, I Want To Live, The Man With The Golden Arm and Johnny Staccato among many others

Plus genre setting 45 gems ‘Harlem Nocturne’ and ‘Route 66’ plus obscure B- sides ‘Experiment In Terror’ and ‘Two Hour Honeymoon’. The likes of Bernstein and Mancini were the backbone of crime jazz but just like the juxtaposition of plotline and sound, it’s the offbeat nuances that make it all the more spectacular.

An audio masterclass for fans of drive-in movies and Alex Cox’s Moviedrome. Remastered from the original sound source with sleeve notes by Mojo magazine’s Dave Henderson
