レビュー
From Amazon.co.uk Sometimes the leftover scraps from a bountiful banquet make for a fine meal. Here are a few bits from Elmer Bernstein's enormous output that haven't previously appeared elsewhere. Midas Run was a crime caper that was never really sure if it was taking itself seriously or not. Fred Astaire is seen manipulating the authorities accompanied by a score that never once sends his feet flying into a dance. The composer takes the scoring technique of "mickey-mousing" to hilarious heights mimicking car sirens in "Police Chase", then inverts "Rule Britannia" at "The Foreign Office", and reminds us that the term "disco" has applied to several different musical styles. Bonus material on this album is provided from House: After five years of living. This was a privately commissioned project to celebrate the house of furniture designers Charles and Ray Eames. Stately and regal, the music is allowed to roam between "Living Room", "Upstairs", and "Studio" with an air of serene grace. In sharp contrast is an 18-minute suite from "The Night Visitor" by Henry Mancini, which eerily rounds out the album. Depending on your tastes, these leftovers may be a delicious discovery. --Paul Tonks
