What's It All About? Film & TV Music Of Swinging London
Boasts classic staples from legendary composers John Barry (James Bond), Laurie Johnson (The Avengers) and Sir John Dankworth (Accident), sundry ITC favourites (The Champions, Man In A Suitcase, The Saint) and the superb sounds of Supermarionation from Barry Gray & His Orchestra (Thunderbirds, Joe 90, Captain Scarlet, etc.).
This 3CD box set is also packed to the rafters with popular R&B beat combos and psychedelic bands such as The Yardbirds, The Spencer Davis Group, Hermanâs Hermits, Small Faces, Arthur Brown and Traffic. All of whom either performed in, or provided music for, various films such as Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush, Blow Up, Dateline Diamonds, To Sir With Love et al.
Into that mix weâve added key Library music themes courtesy of DeWolfe, featuring The Noveltones (Vision On), Lemon Dips (The Haunted House Of Horror) and The Electric Banana alias The Pretty Things (Whatâs Good For The Goose).
All this plus some rare 45âs including Laurie Steeleâs âJoeâs Themeâ (making its debut on CD) and Mike Vickersâ collectable Mod/Northern Soul side âOn The Brinkâ, completes a package that hopefully provides plenty for the discerning Sixties music aficionado to enjoy.
An aural soundtrack for a generation who grew up listening, not only to great pop music, but a feast of TV and Film themes that in turn introduced them to music that would stay in their memory, long after theyâd switched off the box or walked out of the cinema.
âąÂ SEQUEL OF SORTS TO THE COMPILATION âYOU CAN WALK ACROSS IT ON THE GRASSâ (Grapefruit, 2024).
âąÂ 96 TRACKS OF FILM & TV MUSIC CAPTURING THE MOOD AND JOIE DE VIVRE OF THE SWINGING 60S.
âąÂ UNLIKE PREVIOUS SUCH COMPILATIONS, âWHATâS IT ALL ABOUTâ IS UNIQUE IN COMBINING POPULAR AND HARD-TO-FIND MUSIC FROM TV PROGRAMMES AND FILMS, FEATURING NOT ONLY THEIR THEMES BUT TRACKS BY SOME OF THE COOLEST BANDS, WHO OFTEN PERFORMED AND STARRED IN THEM.
