Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: gesamkunstwerke Comment: One of the great things about the incidental music about Get Carter is that it was all composed by Roy Budd. So, when Jack Carter puts on a record on the duke box in the pub opposite the station it is Budd's "Looking for Someone". In Brumby's horrible modern mansion "on the Durham Road" it is "Love is a four letter word" that the with-it teenagers are grooving to. In the Oxford Galleries Dance Hall it is the bass-y "Livin should be this way" that thunders in the background. All these songs (which we only ever hear in part on the soundtrack) subtly echo the driving jazzy bass line of the famous title track. Brilliant stuff, almost like a Wagnerian leitmotif for Carter's neo-Jacobean revenge tragedy. Customer Rating: Summary: A Classic Film Soundtrack Comment: This is an absolutely classic film soundtrack for a classic 1971 British film - and one of Michael Caine's finest too (in my opinion, THE definitive Caine thriller). Until Castle Music remastered and reissued this album recently, it had only been made available on a rare and obscure Japanese vinyl LP. The remastering job on this CD (in typical Castle fashion) is to be highly commended - this is one of the warmest digital remasters I've ever heard. For those of you who only a reasonably decent turntable (or even a high-end one!) it's well worth tracking down the reissued vinyl version too.... In any case, this CD is a must-have for anyone who is a fan of this great film. More Reviews
