Sobre este artículo
London: Cape, 1966. This is the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack LP from the United Artists Movie of the same name from 1967. A Stereo LP. UAS 5174. SIGNED BY THE COMPOSER. Music Arranged and Composed by Richard Rodney Bennett. "Billion Dollar Brain, a glitzy, postmodern, eclectic and droll work that melds minimalism, modernism, neoclassicism and pop for an utterly unique take on 1960's spy moods. The orchestration is strikingly original: brass (4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba), two pianos (three for the “Main Title”), percussion (three players, including xylophone and marimba) and Ondes Martenot. The glittering “Main Title” brilliantly accompanies Maurice Binder’s title sequence inspired by 1960's supercomputer operations....Bennett achieves remarkably epic and varied sonorities with minimal forces, orchestrating the music himself" (Film Score Monthly). Vinyl VG++/Cover VG++. SIGNED IN FULL BY RICHARD RODNEY BENNETT. Signed copies of this album are exceedingly uncommon.
Sinopsis
The classic spy thriller of lethal computer-age intrigue and a maniac's private cold war, featuring the same anonymous narrator and milieu of The IPCRESS File.The fourth of Deighton's novels to be narrated by the unnamed employee of WOOC(P) is the thrilling story of an anti-communist espionage network owned by a Texan billionaire, General Midwinter, run from a vast computer complex known as the Brain. After having been recruited by Harvey Newbegin, the narrator travels from the bone-freezing winter of Helsinki, Riga and Leningrad, to the stifling heat of Texas, and soon finds himself tangling with enemies on both sides of the Iron Curtain.
