back in the pre certifcation video days when you could go into your local video shop and hire texas chainsaw massacre, evil dead, i spit on your grave and other great films before they were withdrawn/banned, i stumbled upon a little known vietnam war film called 'how sleep the brave' which has become one of my favourite films, now to the music, there is a piece of music used on this film which i love and i've been trying to track it down for about 18 years, the music wasn't listed on the end credits & because the film is low budget it wasn't listed in many film guides, so i couldn't find out who the music was performed by, then some years later i watched another great film, 'the witchfinder general' and to my amazement the same piece of music was used in this film, great news for me, 'witchfinder' being a better known film gives me more of a chance of tracking this music down, a few years passed and i must have forgot about the music until i saw a 7" from the film 'witchfinder general' i purchased said 7" and bingo! it was the piece of music i've been after all these years, it's by the roberto mann orchestra, it's title is 'love theme from witchfinder general' and it's a great classical/orchestral piece of music (sorry nothing funky about it at all), now here's the bit the vinyl vultures will like, although the record is on decca, i noticed that also written on the label is 'de wolfe', so does anyone know which de wolfe lp this comes from (i wouldn't mind that as well.), the 7" is dated 1968, the writing credit is 'ferris', that's all the info i have, i'm sure somebody can help.
cheers happy monster.
