*MORE OLD MOVIES*

1944 Song of Russia
"Song of Russia is a 1944 American war film made and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The picture was credited as being directed by Gregory Ratoff, though Ratoff became ill near the end of the five-month production, and was replaced by László Benedek, who completed principal photography..." The film stars Robert Taylor, Susan Peters, and Robert Benchley.
Most of the score is adaptations of Tchaikovsky compositions by Herbert Stothart. Jerome Kern and Yip Harburg contributed the song "And Russia Is Her Name"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_of_Russia
https://pixeldrain.com/u/2vJLNKuv

1944 Since You Went Away
"Since You Went Away is a 1944 American epic drama film directed by John Cromwell for Selznick International Pictures and distributed by United Artists. It is an epic about the US home front during World War II that was adapted and produced by David O. Selznick from the 1943 novel Since You Went Away: Letters to a Soldier from His Wife by Margaret Buell Wilder."
" Though sentimental in places, Since You Went Away is somber at times about the effects of war on ordinary people. Some characters on the home front are dealing with grief, loneliness, or fear for the future. Wounded and disabled troops are shown in the hospital scenes."
Starring:
Claudette Colbert, Jennifer Jones, Joseph Cotten, Shirley Temple, Monty Woolley, Lionel Barrymore, Robert Walker, Hattie McDaniel, Agnes Moorehead, Nazimova, Keenan Wynn, Dorothy Dandridge.

https://pixeldrain.com/u/3h7ntqry

1944 To Have & Have Not
"To Have and Have Not is a 1944 American romantic war adventure film directed by Howard Hawks, loosely based on Ernest Hemingway's 1937 novel of the same name. It stars Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan and Lauren Bacall; it also features Dolores Moran, Hoagy Carmichael, Sheldon Leonard, Dan Seymour, and Marcel Dalio. The plot, centered on the romance between a freelancing fisherman in Martinique and a beautiful American drifter, is complicated by the growing French resistance in Vichy France.

Hemingway and Hawks were close friends and, on a fishing trip, Hawks told Hemingway, who was reluctant to go into screenwriting, that he could make a great movie from his worst book, which Hemingway admitted was To Have and Have Not. Jules Furthman wrote the first screenplay, which, like the novel, was set in Cuba. However, the screenplay was altered to be set in Martinique, because the portrayal of Cuba's government was believed to be in violation of the United States' Good Neighbor policy. Hawks's friend William Faulkner was the main contributor to the screenplay, including and following the revisions. Because of the contributions from both Hemingway and Faulkner, it is the only film story on which two winners of the Nobel Prize for Literature worked. Filming began on February 29, 1944, while Faulkner continued to work on the script, and ended on May 10."

"The names of the characters in To Have and Have Not are directly related to the quality of the characters. Characters that are meant to elicit sympathy from the viewer are known by their nicknames: Steve, Slim, Eddie, Frenchy, and Cricket. In this way, Hawks creates the illusion of a character by devoiding it of past and present social roles that may be associated with a surname. Villains or corrupted characters are called by their surnames such as Johnson."

"According to English film critic Robin Wood, To Have and Have Not presents "one of the most basic anti-fascist statements the cinema has given us."

Starring: Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan,
Lauren Bacall, Dolores Moran, Hoagy Carmichael."

@Searnav There was an earlier discussion about problems with Krakenfiles. I tried all the suggestions that were given, and sometimes I succeeded in getting a download. That is over now. Something has changed, and I have to be very careful not to download something I do not want.Like the other person said: you are directed to something else.
Maybe it is country sensitive, but in the Netherlands it is not usable.

Linval Thompson – Strong Like Sampson (The 12" Mixes)

https://www.discogs.com/release/7076966-Linval-Thompson-Strong-Like-Sampson-The-12-Mixes

"Heavyweight disco mixes from Linval Thompson's peerless Strong Like Sampson label 1979-1980".

During the period that embraced 1979 and 1980, Linval Thompson saved his strongest and hardest hitting productions for his very own Strong Like Sampson label. A label that had no more than a couple of dozen 12inch single releases. A short but crucial run. Presented here and reissued for the first time, each song is the full extended discomix as featured on the original 12 records. Some tunes have extended dub versions while some others have superlative DJ cuts courtesy of the likes of Papa Tullo and Jah Thomas. All brimming with heavy dread echoes and energy with brevity off the menu. A who's who of the late roots and early Dancehall period we have Linval Thompson, Barry Brown, Freddy McKay, Barrington Levy and Sammy Dread as some of the featured artists. Nearly 2 hours of music over 18 songs and 2 discs!!! Original copies of the 12 records would render this collection in the hundreds of pounds. All songs produced by Linval Thompson and licensed with his blessing.

Ausschließlich italienische ‚Library Music‘ der frühen Siebziger. Groove Rock, Acid Funk, Exploito-Rock und Beat. Leider gibt es lediglich Informationen über Komponist und ‚Project-Leader‘ , aber nicht über die weiteren beteiligten Musiker, denn es würden mit Sicherheit einige bekannte Namen italienischer Rockgrößen darunter zu finden sein.

Various – Speedball Experience (Obscure Pop Jazz From Early 70's Italian Music Library)

https://www.discogs.com/release/7971084-Various-Speedball-Experience-Obscure-Pop-Jazz-From-Early-70s-Italian-Music-Library

tommaso dirita
5.0 de 5 estrellas speedball experience
Comentado en Italia el 30 de marzo de 2023

la raccolta e' molto bella e l'ascolto vola letteralmente via,si tratta di un pugno di brani scelti in mezzo alla moltitudine di cose simili che furono composte nei primi anni 70, ricadono genericamente nella categoria della library music ossia una specie di banca dati di brani utilizzabili come sottofondo a svariate situazioni come azioni filmate in genere, documentari, pubblicita', cocktail music e persino lift music (ossia musica per ascensori-soprattutto all'estero dove gli edifici sono molto alti e affollati quindi si puo' stare in ascensore anche qualche minuto). non lo definirei molto jazz, tantomeno oscuro o pop (forse i curatori non conoscono il significato della definizione-almeno in italia questo non e' mai stato e mai sara' pop-forse allestero avranno un'altra cultura musicale). per me il suo posto naturale per orientare correttamente la scelta e' nell'easy listening in cui, come in questo caso, si cimentarono molti maestri italiani (per esempio trovajoli, umiliani, goblin e perfino morricone) soprattutto per colonne sonore di thriller-erotico-polizieschi e pellicole di genere. per chi non lo sapesse, la necessita' di una banca dati musicale generica era necessaria soprattutto per le piccole produzioni o b-movies che per economia e velocita' di montaggio avevano spesso temi musicali pronti, spesso diverse pellicole potevano avere le stesse musiche. e' un genere vastissimo che ho sempre amato molto, oggi e' un po' perduto, vive nel culto di una schiera di appassionati soprattutto legato al cinema di genere. spero di essere utile.

DeepL
The collection is very beautiful and listening to it literally flies by. It is a handful of songs chosen from among the multitude of similar pieces that were composed in the early 70s. They generally fall into the category of library music, which is a kind of database of songs that can be used as background music for various situations such as filmed actions in general, documentaries, advertisements, cocktail music, and even elevator music (especially abroad, where buildings are very tall and crowded, so you can spend several minutes in an elevator). I wouldn't call it very jazzy, let alone obscure or pop (perhaps the curators don't know the meaning of the definition—at least in Italy, this has never been and never will be pop—perhaps abroad they have a different musical culture). For me, its natural place for correctly guiding the choice is in easy listening, where, as in this case, many Italian masters (for example, Trovajoli, Umiliani, Goblin, and even Morricone) tried their hand, especially for soundtracks for thriller-erotic-crime films and genre films. For those who don't know, the need for a generic music database was especially necessary for small productions or B-movies, which, for reasons of economy and speed of editing, often had ready-made musical themes, and often different films could have the same music. It is a vast genre that I have always loved very much. Today, it is somewhat lost, living on in the cult following of a group of enthusiasts, mainly linked to genre cinema. I hope this is useful.

Thanks very much for the Van covers. Can't believe you took the time to put it all together. Thanks, thanks.

MBW said...

Really, really appreciated the Van Morrison covers. Can't imagine the time it took to put it all together. If there's interest I probably have another dozen or so covers that weren't in Vanman's share. I don't have much experience with uploading files, but will take the time to learn if folks think it's worthwhile.

And while I'm posting, I want to thank everyone for being so generous. As a long time lurker, I feel blessed to have found this site.

EmileB said...

Searnav - This looks interesting but Kraken is no longer available in the UK. Even using a VPN no longer works due to re-directions to dangerous sites or an Opera GX download site. Would it be possible to re-upload on workupload or another host. I really look forward to your posts so it is rather annoying to be unable to download some.

DiJiT said...

With Krakenfiles, at least for me, there are 2 download buttons, as Anonymous mentioned elsewhere, the top one being a spam link, notice the tiny 'ad' mention, the bottom one being the proper link, which also leads to a pop up, which I have to exit and try the download button again, sometimes this happens 3 times or more, but eventually the link for the download pops up. It usually helps if I've had my morning coffee as well.
