CRIME JAZZ

VA - Crime Scene USA, Classic Film Noir Themes & Jazz Tracks [2006] (2 x CDs)

In the beginning, they weren't called 'Film Noir'. That term didn't originate until 1946 when a Frenchman coined the phrase as a convenient catchall reference for American low budget hard-boiled crime and detective B-movies shot during the austere '40s and early '50s. It was the look of Film Noir movies as much as their down beat storylines, which made for compulsive viewing. Shot in black and white, these films were dark and claustrophobic and relied upon deep shadows, shards of light and surreal angle shots to establish the appropriate mood. Other much used devices included conspiratorial voiceover narrators and dream-like flashbacks.

Long before Quentin Tarantino's signature film, Hollywood had produced hard-boiled, pulp fiction movies based on the novels & stories of Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, Raymond Chandler, and Mickey Spillane. The darker, more adult themes, and cinematic images influenced by German Expressionism of the aptly named "film noir", demanded a new, dramatic music to enhance the singular character of these movies. From the lush scores of "Golden Age" composers like Max Steiner and Franz Waxman, to the young, innovative composers, like Miklos Rozsa and Elmer Bernstein, this recording has tantalizing samples from thirty-one "film noir" classics, selected by an informed editorial staff. Many of the tracks are the "suites", which were originally played over the films' opening credits, and have been extracted directly from the films. The sound quality of the excerpts is surprisingly good, considering the sources.

If you are at all interested in "film noir", use this recording's playlist as a starting point for some of the best films with the best scores from this genre. (Amazon)

VA - Crime Jazz, Music in the First & Second Degree [1997] (2 x CDs)

CRIME JAZZ

VA - Crime Jazz, Music in the First & Second Degree [1997] (2 x CDs)

VA - Crime Jazz, Music in the First Degree [1997] - Eighteen excerpts from movie and television soundtracks to crime drama, recorded between 1954 and 1964; in the few cases when these are not from the actual soundtrack itself, they're clearly inspired by the genre. Several notable composers (Elmer Bernstein, Henry Mancini, Count Basie, Leonard Bernstein, David Amram) and performers (Shorty Rogers, Stan Kenton, Quincy Jones) show up here with snazzy, tense works with feet in both the jazz and soundtrack idioms. Several of the tracks are classics of the style -- the theme to the Johnny Staccato series, "Frankie Machine" from The Man with the Golden Arm, Shorty Rogers' The Wild One theme, Henry Mancini's "Peter Gunn" (done here by Quincy Jones), and Mancini's ominous main title music to the film noir classic Touch of Evil. It's slightly recommended over its companion volume, Crime Jazz: Music in the Second Degree, because it has a higher concentration of familiar classics. Each of the volumes, however, will appeal far more to the soundtrack specialist than the jazz fan -- not that you can't be both at once. (AllMusic review by Richie Unterberger)

VA - Crime Jazz, Music in the Second Degree [1997] - Numerous notable jazz musicians contributed to movie and television soundtracks of crime thrillers, and this well-annotated 18-song compilation gathers several of the more outstanding examples. It's not so much a jazz anthology, however, as it is an anthology of some of the more memorable and effective musical backgrounds from suspense films, albeit ones that happened to feature a jazzy flair and some notable players. Stan Kenton, Lalo Schifrin, Quincy Jones, Kai Winding, and Stan Getz are among the most recognizable contributors to the disc; Henry Mancini is not, it's fair to say, beloved by many jazz connoisseurs, but he often used jazzy flourishes in his soundtrack work. There are extracts from West Side Story, 77 Sunset Strip, Touch of Evil, The Asphalt Jungle, and Mickey One, though many of the other sources will be familiar only to film noir buffs. It's still a decent collection for those who like ominous, jazz-influenced soundtracks of this vintage, characterized by the anxious crescendos, prattling bongos, and elongated brass bursts that underpinned many an action scene.

MOOD MOSAIC

VA - The Mood Mosaic Vol. 01 to Vol. 20 [1997-2023] (20 x CDs)           

Italian realistically unofficial compilation series by Partners in Crime/ Yellowstone Records/ Discomagic Records/ Future Records/ Hitland (Italy).

I am something of a completest in the sense that, once I start buying a series of something, I usually feel some sort of mild compulsion to own the whole set. I always think I might be missing something great of I don't get every volume. After buying the "Mood Mosaic" series I wasn't disappointed. Each of the Mood Mosaic volumes have a quite a few great tracks and large amounts of what sound like "B' sides or filler cuts on them.  The sound is good on every cut and the disc is well enough filled that there's no question of value. So....if you woke up this morning thinking, gosh, I wish I could find a Crime Lounge CD filled with mostly nondescript B movie chase scene music, this might be just your cup of tea...

Each volume in this great Mood Mosaic series, is themed that focuses on those thematic sounds. Listen to Jazz-Funk, Easy Listening, Pop Rock, Latin Jazz, Soul-Jazz, Psychedelic, Lounge, Soul-Jazz, Jazz, Latin, Swing, Cool Jazz, Big Band, Funk, Pop Rock, Soul, Afrobeat, House, Disco & Soundtrack. There are loads of rare cuts and loads of hard-to-find tracks. (Amazon)
