Thanks for the introduction. I hear George Russell/Stan Kenton/Gil Evans influences here, but only fleetingly.    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 6:21 AM     By:   TerraEpon   (Member) What this has to do with film music I couldn't say.    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 6:31 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) What this has to do with film music I couldn't say. I can say. The best space-age bachelor pad music is more cinematic than a lot of the stuff that routinely gets discussed around these parts. You're welcome.    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 7:21 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) That's odd that TerraEpon would post an incongruent remark in this topic most fine, because in the past he has posted positive contributions to the following General Discussion non-film-music threads: "Concert music that sounds like film music?": https://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=87521&forumID=1&archive=0 "Non Film Scores That Sound Like Film Scores": https://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=87521&forumID=1&archive=0    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 7:38 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) It's OK to talk about non-film music, as long as the non-film music sounds like everyone's expectation of what film music should sound like. To quote a a friend of mine, "Wave like you love Star Wars."    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 8:01 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) "As Sinatra said to Dylan one night on Sinatra's patio, “You and me, pal, we got blue eyes, we’re from up there,” and he pointed to the stars. “These other bums are from down here.”    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 9:25 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) Mind blown....    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 10:34 AM     By:   ZardozSpeaks   (Member) What this has to do with film music I couldn't say.

Bernard Green had written the music for the 1963 Jean Simmons movie All the Way Home as well as William Castle's 1962 Zotz!, so this thread can be interest for the few of us FSMers familiar with these flicks. These are the types of scores which, maybe 10 years ago, might have appeared on CDs from labels such as MMM or Kritzerland, but at this distance in time there aren't enough customers to make a Bernard Green soundtrack feasible. Perhaps this thread header should simply be "The Bernard Green thread" so that we can discuss all things Bernard Green (film and non-film related). Considering the LP content from the OP's link, this sort of music had currency until around 1964 or thereabouts; after the impact from The Beatles, John Barry's James Bond, etc., this music does NOT sound like pop music from 1970. It was only "Futura" for 1962 & 1963.    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 11:09 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) ...after the impact from The Beatles, John Barry's James Bond, etc., this music does NOT sound like pop music from 1970. It was only "Futura" for 1962 & 1963. In that case, I refuse to listen to anything recorded after, say, 1964. Sorry, but I get this way whenever I've just watched MAD MEN (which is every Friday night). As for the topic, I've been introduced to an interesting, not-John Williams composer whose music "grabs me", as my late grandmother would have said.    Posted:   Oct 20, 2018 - 7:06 PM     By:   TerraEpon   (Member) That's odd that TerraEpon would post an incongruent remark in this topic most fine, because in the past he has posted positive contributions to the following General Discussion non-film-music threads: Both of which have some film music context. Onya for some reason posts a number of topic that don't have any of said context. I honestly fail to see why they are allowed, but hey maybe I'm just that idiot who isn't romantically in love with Goldsmith.    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 7:56 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Both of which have some film music context.

If you simply are not interested in my posts, you may skip over them and read others. If, on the other hand, you are concerned that my posts are threatening the integrity and morality of the greater community, you could hit the "report abuse" button, assuming they have fixed it. I would add that the degree to which any conversations here are "on topic" will depend on the participants' reference points within film and film music. Sorry to have offended you.    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 8:09 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Back on topic: Bernie Green's 1961 imagining of what popular music would sound like in 1970 is so much more interesting and compelling than what sweaty hippies would go on to play during the actual year. What adult, living in mid-century modern splendor in the mid-1950s, could have imagined that the cute kids watching astronauts and cowboys on TV would completely ruin popular music in a few years?    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 11:18 AM     By:   Essankay   (Member) Interesting sounds! Thanks for the introduction. I hear George Russell/Stan Kenton/Gil Evans influences here, but only fleetingly. You can't have listened to more than thirty seconds to be making those references! I hear Roger Roger/Esquivel influences here, with a soupçon of Carl Stalling, and that would explain OB's affection for it. Your affection for it I can only ascribe to bromance, or the booze.    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 11:29 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) Interesting sounds! Thanks for the introduction.

You can still type after clawing at the doors of the Supreme Court? Impressive. Seriously, it's cute/sad when aging, drug-addled Boomers try to talk about anything NOT The Beach Boys.    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 11:36 AM     By:   Essankay   (Member) You can still type after clawing at the doors of the Supreme Court?

You need to check the filter in your Brita. (Red tide is toxic, y'know.)    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 12:46 PM     By:   ZardozSpeaks   (Member) What adult, living in mid-century modern splendor in the mid-1950s, could have imagined that the cute kids watching astronauts and cowboys on TV would completely ruin popular music in a few years? Also, who could have predicted that (for the past 24 months) U.S. school kids, millennials and females (of any age or skin tone) would march around chanting incantations protesting precisely that mid-century mindset of the Caucasian male establishment? Make American composers great again!    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 1:16 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Also, who could have predicted that (for the past 24 months) U.S. school kids, millennials and females (of any age or skin tone) would march around chanting incantations protesting precisely that mid-century mindset of the Caucasian male establishment? That was an inherently progressive era. Ours is regressive.    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 1:36 PM     By:   ZardozSpeaks   (Member) What Will Popular Music Sound Like in 2070?    Posted:   Oct 21, 2018 - 1:39 PM     By:   Tango Urilla   (Member) 2:14 sounds like we're gearing up for a Hawaiian Christmas.     General Discussion: What Will Popular Music Sound Like in 1970?    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
