IPCRESS FILE - VARIOUS ARTISTS: ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK RECORDING (180G IMPORT LP+7")

The Ipcress File: Original Soundtrack Recording Various Artists on 180g Import LP + 7" Vinyl

The Ipcress File is 1965 film starring Michael Caine, made by a large portion of the James Bond production team and featuring a charming score composed by the legendary John Barry. For this film, he decided to play the main theme on the cimbalom, a type of Hungarian dulcimer. Its spiky, abrasive and twangy sound emphasizes the loneliness and forlorn nature of the main character, Harry Palmer. The theme, which was subsequently sampled by DJ Premier, is presented here in different jazz, swing and blues arrangements. For this Music On Vinyl release, all the instrumental tracks of the distinctive and innovative score are bundled on one 180g LP, and snippets of the film's famous dialogue has been collected on a separate bonus 7" vinyl disc.
