So did anyone else see Dr Terror's House Of Horrors on the box on Saturday? It's pretty hilarious viewing, as I tend to find most Hammer films.. but I was bowled over by the superb jazz theme played by Roy Castle with the Tubby Hayes Quintet, in the story featuring the young passive-smoking, record-breaking trumpeter.
Now I know there's a rare 7" from the film, which was 're-issued' recently, which has a track from the film called 'Voodoo Girl', and a spoof on the theme which doesn't actually feature in it.
I didn't remember 'Voodoo Girl', which I seem to remember being some exotica type joint featuring Roy's crooning, being anything like the jazz track in the film, which was a fantastic, almost Miles Davis-esque instrumental jazz piece. I don't have the 7" so I don't know. Am I right?
