By Request - Sweet Smell of Success (1957) / Walk on the Wild Side (1962) - Elmer Bernstein

A great friend to this blog, 'Rocket From Mars', who has fulfilled an awful lot of requests, wanted to hear 'Sweet Smell of Success' so here it is! These are possibly my favorite Elmer Bernstein jazz scores (along with The Man With The Golden Arm). Sweet Smell of Success was the cynical Burt Lancaster / Tony Curtis film and Walk On The Wild Side was the Jane Fonda prostitution movie that wasn't Klute.

I love Elmer Bernstein's music in all his different genres. I love the jazz Elmer, the Western Elmer, the comedy Elmer, and the dramatic Elmer. They're all different, but they look suspiciously like the same man. Not to be confused with Leonard Bernstein who was all the same, but looked suspiciously like different men.

Well, this is great music any way you look at it, so enjoy!

01 - Sweet Smell Of Success (1957) - The Street

Thanks Gentleman for all wonderful music
 
Very nice post indeed.
Thank you for it and the rest of your blog as well.
Concerning your requests section, I have an answer for Michael who requested "Winning" OST, but I do not know where to put it, so here it is:
http://rapidshare.com/files/1045372/Winning_MP3.rar
If it is not the right place, move it where it should be and, please tell me where I should have done it since I might have a couple of other request that to satisfy.
Thank you
 
Coming back to my former comment, I can see that the URL for "Winning" was truncated. This is how it should read after the usual http://rapidshare.com/files
/1045372/Winning_MP3.rar
Sorry for that.
I am also sorry not to be able to offer the artwork since my scanner just broke down. I will come back later with it as soon as I get a device.
 
How Sweet it is!
This is great, now my snappy Lp transfer can go into retirement.

Not really ...I keep EVERTHING!;)
 
Ps- Thank you quinlan for putting up "Winning", its cool!
 
Thanks for "The Sweet Smell of Success," but can you also post the companion soundtrack album featuring the Chico Hamilton Quintet which focused on the jazz aspects of this great novie. In addition, could you post two other Bernstein masterpieces: "Summer and Smoke" and "Far from Heaven." Last request: George Delerue's "True Confessions," released last year in a stingy limited edition of 1,000 copies and arguably his greatest U.S. soundtrack.
 
Thanks for the Bernstein SS of S stuff. I, too, am looking for what seems like a Holy Grail quest: a rip of the Chico Hamilton companion album...
 
Hi Anonymous!

You're welcome and I hope you found your Holy Grail at the Requests Post. :))
 
Big Thanks for this one. Great site.
 
Cracking site - cheers for posting this up.
