The album features performances by Hancock, trumpeters Freddie Hubbard and Joe Newman, alto saxophonist Phil Woods, tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, guitarist Jim Hall, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Jack DeJohnette. Although Jimmy Smith is credited with playing organ on the album, some sources claim it was actually Paul Griffin who was at the sessions - Wikipedia I re-watched the film last year after reading the short story that inspired it by Julio Cortázar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LA8U703G_s&list=PLkAUJkbhd-RjzIXr_NXGzvpOcqLH1pxEi&index=1 #BlowUp #Soundtrack #HerbieHancock #Jazz #MichelangeloAntonioni #SwingingLondon #Music #JulioCortazar

Music from Mission: Impossible is an album featuring music composed and conducted by Lalo Schifrin recorded in 1967 and released on the Dot label.[1] The music on this album is re-recorded and extended scores were originally commissioned for the TV series Mission: Impossible. The Allmusic review states: "Any fan of the show should try and find this album at a used music shop, but more specifically fans of Lalo Schifrin (and that could be quite a few, as he remained uncredited on some of his TV themes) should definitely check the album out. It's a good buy if you can find it - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O07WucFwdq8&list=OLAK5uy_nFbhaNtam65VvONoe3S11Zy5P6eEe-9k8 Thought I was listening to Portishead for a moment and then realised it was the sample they used from the track Danube Incident! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3KX-G50R5k&list=RDa3KX-G50R5k&start_radio=1 #LaloSchifrin #MissionImpossible #soundtrack #jazz #Music #Samples #Portishead

Ended the weekend and welcomed the week with Ascenseur pour l'échafaud an album by Miles Davis...The album features the musical cues for the 1958 Louis Malle film Ascenseur pour l'échafaud. Jean-Paul Rappeneau, a jazz fan and Malle's assistant at the time, suggested asking Miles Davis to create the film's soundtrack ..Rappeneau introduced him to Malle, and Davis agreed to record the music after attending a private screening. On December 4, he brought his four sidemen to the recording studio without having had them prepare anything. Davis only gave the musicians a few rudimentary harmonic sequences he had assembled in his hotel room, and, once the plot was explained, the band improvised without any precomposed theme, while edited loops of the musically relevant film sequences were projected in the background. - Wikipedia I read the source novel and rewatched the film last year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc4tT-55ZzI&list=RDWc4tT-55ZzI&start_radio=1 #MilesDavis #Soundtrack #Jazz #Music #LouisMalle
