Try Quiet City, by Aaron Copland
Noir album recommendations
New member, looking for recommendations for great Noir/Jazz/Film Noir albums, Vinyl or CD. I really enjoy Miles Davis' Ascenseur pour l'échafaud , Chinatown''s soundtrack and more recent artists like Paul Pritchard(Gumshoe Blues, Stool Pigeon) but I'm having a difficult time finding anything that isn't just general Jazz. Really interested in music that evokes that down on his luck Private Investigator in a corrupt city where its always raining and you just cant trust anyone, including the dame that just walked in with a "simple" job.

For some time I've been meaning to start a post on a similar subject. After becoming enamored with the film "The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button", I purchased the soundtrack and love disc 1 for 'sleep music' (I could do without the bombing sequence). Wanted recommendations for similar music and found jazz noir. Any other specific suggestions, instrumental only please and thank you. AB |
@stuartk +1 Terence Blanchard followed Wynton Marsalis both New Orleans born but Wynton is an impossible act to follow. "Jazz In Film" is one of the great overlooked Audiophile/highest level content recordings. Glad you enjoyed it. |
