Blow-Up: Original Soundtrack
“Blow-Up” is a soundtrack by HERBIE HANCOCK, composed for the 1966 Michelangelo Antonioni film.
On a musical level, the songs evoke the atmosphere of the swinging sixties in London, with grooves that evoke a bluesy ambience on the slower tracks and a funky jazz ambience on the faster tracks.
The album features HANCOCK on piano, Freddie Hubbard and Joe Newman on trumpet, Phil Woods and Joe Henderson on saxophone, Ron Carter on bass and Jack DeJohnette on drums.
If you believe the rumors, the famous musicians Jimmy Smith and Paul Griffin played Hammond organ here.
Rock fans will remember the movie and its soundtrack for the rare YARDBIRDS number “Stroll On” (which was actually just a modified version of Tiny Bradshaw’s “The Train Kept A-Rollin'”), one of only three songs they recorded with Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page on guitars.
The bass line of “Bring Down The Birds” was sampled by DEEE-LITE for the 1990 hit single “Groove Is In The Heart” with BOOTSY COLLINS.
CONDITION GRADING
Our condition grading terminology is defined as follows. Most movie posters prior to 1990 were folded by the printer (factory folded) before being shipped to theaters. When a condition grading includes the word ‘folded,’ that usually refers to factory folds. If you have questions regarding the condition of a specific poster, feel free to get in touch.
NEAR MINT: With no visible problems.
VERY FINE: Only shows signs of time
FINE May have minimal wear with possible pinholes in the borders and/or slight fold wear. Minor tape on the back and very small tears are also allowable as is slight fading.
