The cd you have is the one I felt very disappointed with. It's actually the music from two of the films re-recorded, if my memory serves, and it sounds quite cheesy, imho.
I haven't been following all of the various links to the particular albums, but I can report that at least one of the currently available soundracks to Bullitt is also a re-recording. It is *very* difficult to tell from the packaging that it is not the original 1960's release (which, by the way, was also a re-recording of the original soundtrack - apparently the music used in the actual movie has never been released). I lucked out at Amobea records in Los Angeles: when I asked someone if the Bullitt soundtrack cd I was holding was a contemporary re-recording or the original 1960's release, they just happened to have the cd release of the original 60's recording in the cutout bin (missing the booklet, but whatever) for US&2.50. It's only about 30 minutes long, but worth every penny. If anyone out there wants to do a little schifrin trade, i've been looking for the original recording of 'Enter the Dragon' for almost a decade, and I'd love to hear whatever there is of the original Dirty Harry soundtrack that has been released.... (I'm also looking for his CTI release, 'Black Widow' which is oop). I have other material to trade, too, beside oop schifrin.. -whit
ALSO, THANKS FOR www.moviegrooves.com - THAT IS AN AWESOME SITE!!
Sure, it's a great site. And you can listen to some samples at least. The prices aren't exactly popular, but they carry lots of rare stuff.
Best,
