New MOJO Magazine Soundtrack CD (1 Viewer)

[Mark Cappelletty]

FYi,

Anyone interested in cool and unusual movie soundtracks, should buy the new UK music magazine MOJO (June 2002) with the cover story on sountracks. Not only do you get articles on Curtis Mayfield, Frank Sinatra, the Sex Pistols and the Monkees' "Head," but the magazine also comes with a free CD entitled "The Score" which contains everything from Moby to The Kinks to Booker T. & The MGs to Henry Mancini and Nick Cave singing "Let It Be."

This CD is worth big bucks in my estimation and it comes with the magazine (which retails for about $8.00 US with a list of £3.50 UK) for free!

I picked this up last night. Definitely worth the money. An ecletic collection of songs that works perfectly as a compilation / mix tape. It was about $8 at my local Border's book store.

[Anthony Thorne]

Yeah, a good issue. I found it funny that the GET CARTER track had the train sound direct from the film playing through it though. Otherwise, a good read and a nifty CD...

 

[Iain Lambert]

Anthony, thats how the track is on the CD of the Get Carter score as well, so I presume its the same master used. I've not picked this up as I have a fair bit of it already, but I might do now.

 

[Andrew Chong]

Thanks! I'll check it out.

08 Peter Gabriel - Time Is Tight (04:59)

The Booker T. & the MG's song? I gotta hear that!

 

[Mark Cappelletty]

Greg's got the tracklisting wrong, that's the original Booker T & The MG's song, not a Peter Gabriel cover of it!

 

[John Geelan]

Yes, thats the original Booker T song, not Peter Gabriel at all.

I'm only 5 songs in and I alreaqdy plan on buying the Dark Days and Get Carter soundtracks.

On a similar note, there's an ad for some Warner Music soundtrack remasters in that issue of MOJO. Some are quite interesting. I don't believe they have been released in the U.S. but I did find Lalo Schifrin's Dirty Harry Anthology CD as an import at my local CD shop.
Anyone have any of the other remasters? I'd really like to know how the Paris, Texas one is. Is it better than the "old" domestic CD release? That's quite possibly my favorite film soundtrack of all time, so I'm intrigued by the thought of a remaster.
Here's the list from the inside of the CD case:
Ry Cooder
Paris, Texas
Jerry Fielding
The Gauntlet
The Wild Bunch
Jerry Goldsmith
Outland
J.J. Johnson
Cleopatra Jones
Quincy Jones
Dollars
Michael Legrand
Summer of '42
Ennio Morricone
The Exorcist II: The Heretic
Alex North
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Lalo Schifrin
Bullitt

Dirty Harry Anthology
Enter The Dragon

The Eagle Has Landed
