CRIME JAZZ : VOLUME 17 : THRILLERS!
Here we have a 41 track, two-disc collection of mainly title themes from some ofthe best action thrillers of the 1970's. As well as the usual suspects found onthese compilations I've tried to add a few of the rarer and more unusual scoresfrom that era!Because of the various sources and quality of these tracks I've decided to keepthe better quality rips to disc one and placed all the others onto a second disc.Consider disc two as a "bonus" disc...
Thanks go to Steve for help in sourcing some of the rarer tracks contained on the album.

Segroeg - I may be very slow here but I've only just realised it's your name backwards :)
Good to hear from you and thanks for the comment :)
Thank you very much for this edition! (I haven't been able to listen to it any earlier...) It's another great volume of the coolest series I know of.
Thanks again!
Man, you always maintain a high quality of selections amongst your spy/crime jazz comps--great work, dear sir.
3-Pin, Segroeg, N.D, Cali, Solariscyberdelico (great name) and Mr. Anonymous - Thanks for the kind words and amazing feedback :)
I'm currently working on some TV theme volumes but the quality won't be up to the standard of most of these sets :(
They are however, all original recordings so will be more of an historical journey through crime series rather than high-fidelity listening!
Stay Tuned!
Thank You (hundred times) for this great music treasure. I have no appropriate words for this. Speechles.
Thank You again.
:-)
Your welcome!
And thanks for the kind words :)

Thanks for the compliments :)
Licorice closed down his site a while back but hopefully will be adding a couple more volumes to my collection in the future!
excellent compilation!!!!
i wish a compilation about thieves movies.
Thanks you,very good works
These are fantastic compilations, a testament to your dedication and sense of style. Well done, and thanks a lot!
Thanks guys for the great feedback. I do hope to add more volumes to this series at some point but it depends on time :)
Great set! I've been getting to know some wonderful music since I've hung around your blog. Thank you so much!!
On a minor note: isn't track 11 cut off at 1:15?
@ carlos
Thanks for the kind words :)
I'm not sure about that track cutting off without listening to it but most of these tracks are bootleg/dvd rips so it's probably just the way it was ripped.
I hope you enjoy the other albums on the site!

Thanks!

Link's down on this one. :(
yeah, the links down :(
such a shame because this series is so good.
Agreed - I must remember to check which ones of this selection I got and maybe repost as a token of goodwill. But I'm a very lazy man so don't hold me up to that....
I got to these very, very late.
6, 9, 11, 12, and 17 are gone, but I managed to get the others.
Thanks.
magnificent site and terrific quality work :) your compilations feature true treasures :) Keep up the great work!
