Music reviews of The Man with the Golden Arm
Music Review: Very, VERY Jazzy
Rating: 4 Stars
The soundtrack from the 1955 Otto Preminger/Frank Sinatra film is VERY Jazzy, and that is no understatement. Bernstein's score with help from Shorty Rodgers hits the mid-50's with a rocket, and is an accurate representation of the music of that time (jazz that is). Some of the music even borrows from rock 'n roll in places (or is it the other way around!!).
The transfer to CD is o.k., could have been better in my opinion, but I must assume it was not recorded/mastered all that well in the beginning. I have the record from a mid-1980's reissue, and the quality is about the same, only louder. But I'd rather have it in this form than not at all.
It's a good reminder of the film and again, a good intro to the jazzy music of the era. And it is jazzy indeed!!
Thats My-2-Cents. Enjoy the music.
Description of The Man with the Golden Arm
Reissue of the classic Bernstein soundtrack which is acknowledged as one of the most tense an intense motion pictures ever made. The score was groundbreaking in it's day, reflecting the tightness of the film with it's palpitating, sometimes sinister jazz and symphonic arrangements. The jazz sequences are arranged and played by Shorty Rogers and His Giants with Shelley Manne. 2001.Movie Scores CDs
