Hey, I know I'm, what, two months late to the party, but I know a couple of pretty good movie soundtracks. One of them you might've heard of, 'cause it's a pretty famous movie, but only in certain circles. It's the soundtrack to Ridley Scott's (hey, same last name, haha) "Blade Runner", my favorite movie of all time. The soundtrack is done by Vangelis, so it can be pretty quiet at times, but when it is, it's beautiful, and the rest of the time, it pretty much sends chills up and down my spine. Wait, that's the lyric to a Johnny Mercer song, isn't it? Nevermind. The other soundtrack is less heard of, I'm sure, but it's the soundtrack to the classic Sydney Pollack film "Three Days of the Condor" by Dave Grusin. It's sort of a funky 70s jazz- funk fusion type of sound. The only thing that annoys me is that the last song on the soundtrack is a version of "Silver Bells" that was used in the movie. I know it's IN THE MOVIE, but it's not the kind of song you want to listen to every day, you know? I don't know if these are up anyone's alley but mine, but I figured I'd mention them. They're both still available for sale new, so I don't think I can share the files or anything. The second one is kinda rare, as far as I can tell. I only have it in mp3 format that took me forever to find, because for the longest time, Dave Grusin refused to allow any record companies to release it on CD (but then again, it seems CDs are becoming obsolete anyway), but if you have to have it on CD for listening purposes, that has changed. If you are reading this, and you ARE an audiophile, unlike Mr. Scott, I recommend tracking down a decent copy of the vinyl. The only reason I don't have it is because I tend to buy vinyl locally, since I have a lot of new and used vinyl stores nearby, and haven't found it in any store. I might just break down and order it online soon. Anyway, sorry for the long post, and sorry for the varied language ("you" vs "Mr. Scott"), it's because #1 I just woke up, and #2 I've never actually used the forums here, so I don't really know who to address. Like, I would hope Ross Scott would see this, but he might not, and other people probably will. So, yeah. I need to finish my cigarettes and coffe, hope this helps!
