Title: Very, VERY Jazzy
Product review: The soundtrack from the 1955 Otto Preminger/Frank Sinatra film is VERY Jazzy, and that is no understatement. Bernstein's score with help from Shorty Rodgers hits the mid-50's with a rocket, and is an accurate representation of the music of that time (jazz that is). Some of the music even borrows from rock 'n roll in places (or is it the other way around!!).The transfer to CD is o.k., could have been better in my opinion, but I must assume it was not recorded/mastered all that well in the beginning. I have the record from a mid-1980's reissue, and the quality is about the same, only louder. But I'd rather have it in this form than not at all.It's a good reminder of the film and again, a good intro to the jazzy music of the era. And it is jazzy indeed!!Thats My-2-Cents. Enjoy the music.
