Celebrating the Jerry Fielding centenary, Quartet Records, in collaboration with MGM, present the long-awaited remastered CD reissue of BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA (1974), an iconic masterpiece starring Warren Oates and Isela Vega and one of the composer’s most celebrated collaborations with his usual partner, Sam Peckinpah.
The somewhat dark, harsh, cool Mexican flavor and bittersweet colors of Jerry Fielding’s score are the perfect match for this unusual tale of violence, death and revenge ? a motion picture that also featured a desperate sense of romanticism as shot by Peckinpah.
This complete edition was originally released by Quartet Records in 2012 and quickly sold out. The album was produced by Nick Redman and remixed from the original multi-tracks elements by Dan Hersch. This new CD edition contains the same program and has been remastered by Chris Malone. The package includes a 16-page booklet with a new in-depth essay by film music writer John Takis.
サム・ペキンパー監督のバイオレンス映画の傑作。音楽はジェリー・フィールディング！2012年に同レーベルからサウンドトラック完全盤が発売されあっという間に完売。長らく再発売が要望されていましたが、ついにその完全盤がリマスターで再発売！
トラックリストメキシコの大地主が愛娘を妊娠させた男、ガルシアの首に賞金を懸けた。酒場のしがないピアノ弾きベニー（オーツ）は、情婦のエリータ（ヴェガ）からガルシアが既にこの世にない事を聞かされ、エリータと共にガルシアが葬られた彼の故郷を目指す。だが、同じく懸賞金を狙う男たちがベニーの後を追っていた。やがて、墓場に到着したベニーはガルシアの墓を暴こうとするが……。人生を諦めかけていた一人の男の、再起をかけた命がけの戦いを強烈なバイオレンス描写に託して描いたペキンパーの大傑作。腐乱したガルシアの首を提げて“男の生きざま”を見せるウォーレン・オーツは一世一代の快演。1974年米。
