Legrand, Michel
La Piscine O.s.t. (+7")
RSD 2021 release. Reissue one of Michel Legrand's best soundtracks composed for the French psychological thriller 'La Piscine' (The Swimming Pool), released in 1969 and featuring Alain Delon and Romy Schneider. Legrand penned the score straight after 'The Thomas Crown Affair' OST and it features the same ultra cool mix of memorable themes, slick jazzy instrumentals and funky, sophisticated pop songs. The full soundtrack was only released in Japan and France and is now extremely rare. It is here augmented with three bonus tracks that have never been released on vinyl, all newly remastered and housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve designed by Eric Adrian Lee with new liner notes by British Journalist Jeremy Allen. As a RSD bonus the label also included Legrand's ultra rare funky 7" soundtrack for 'Un Homme Est Mort' from 1972 in its original artwork.
