Popular Post Miguel Andrade 1,260 Posted April 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2019 Williams conducted three albums for Previn. The first one, from 1962 on RCA Records, "Young Hollywood Composers", even has some Williams music. In 1963 and 64 came out "André Previn In Hollywood" and "Soundstage", both on CBS. The later one was re-released in the 70's under the title "The Jazz Piano of Andre Previn". The CBS albums were released on the Vocalion label a few years ago though it seems they are out of print. Had no idea Sony had released "André Previn in Hollywood" on CD. Once, WilliamsStarShip2282 and ricsim88 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,471 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I only have YOUNG HOLLYWOOD COMPOSERS (because it has Williams music). Never heard the others, but would be interested to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,471 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Yes, the latter is a fine album (although my copy has a lot of pops and crackles). "Tuesday's Theme" never appeared in the film proper (BACHELOR FLAT), but was released as a sort of 'inspired by' single later (inspired by Tuesday Weld's character in the film).

Quintus 5,399 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I just listened to the Williams penned track, it was quite nice lounge music. Is the whole album easy listening fare like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the whole album easy listening fare like that? No this theme is not even included in the Checkmate album, as it is a co-composition with Dory Previn. The Checkmate album is very jazz and it's a must! I recommend this CD, for a superior sound quality: Checkmate/Hong Kong (2015, Fresh Sound Records, JM 1007, Compilation) "Checkmate": Music composed and conducted by Johnny Williams.

Thor 7,471 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Not from BACHELOR FLAT, strictly speaking (as I mentioned earlier in the thread), but inspired by Tuesday Weld's character. It doesn't appear in the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
