CULT FICTION
VA - This Is... Cult Fiction Royale [1997] (2 x CD's)
This Is...Cult Fiction Royale collects 47 original television and film themes from the '60s and '70s like "Theme from Space 1999," "Theme from the Man from U.N.C.L.E.," "Theme from Dirty Harry" and "Theme from Get Carter." Much of it is from the source material (directly from the films and shows themselves), while others are from the original masters. Many of these tracks are available elsewhere, but there are enough obscurities to entice collectors of the genre. Cult Fiction Royale is brought to you using tip top modern technology, however some tracks included on this compilation are original mono masters rather than stereo copies, so please do not adjust your stereophonic gramophone recording equipment, rest assured it is all an integral part of the listening experience of Cult Fiction Royale.
An absolutely awesome double CD set.. It's out of this world catchiness will remind you instantly of long-forgotten and eagerly awaited adventure themes. Fireball XL-5 is a great example here-even having the turbo-rocket ascending noise as the prologue to the main theme. Very nostalgic early sixties. If TV themes from yesteryear are your thing, then this is definitely for you! (Amazon)

ReplyDeleteSensational. Was watching UFO the other day - and not through rose-coloured glasses. Barry Gray's theme is in some ways the least clunky thing aboout the show. Thanks so much Butterboy.
ReplyDeleteThese are classic! Much to be enjoyed here and not your everyday compilation either. I've been a fan of those Gerry Anderson marionation show since I was a kid, the ones that made it to the states, especially the Supercar, Fireball-XL5 and The Thunderbirds. You probably got them in some form too BB. I've never seen this set.. THANKS.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks
