Brian Jones - A Degree Of Murder - Movie Soundtrack 1967_CaptainAcidRemaster

Hi Brian fans,

I had an old bootleg of this one. Files are extracts from the movie, probably from VHS.
I have tried to make it a bit better, enjoy

Remastered by Captain Acid, December 2024



All music composed and played by Brian Jones on the following instruments: sitar, organ, guitar, recorder, bass, banjo, dulcimer, harmonica. Recorded January – February 1967 @ IBC and Olympic Studios, London. Broadcast on ZDF TV 1969. Also featuring Jimmy Page: guitars; Nicky Hopkins: piano; Kenney Jones: drums; Peter Gosling: keyboards, Mellotron, vocals; Mike Leander: orchestra; Glyn Johns: engineering

In early 1967 Brian Jones found time in between Stones tours to record the soundtrack to the film Mord und Totschlag, starring his then- partner Anita Pallenberg as Marie. In the film Marie shoots her ex-boyfriend with his own gun after he attempts to beat her up. Instead of reporting this to the police she hires two men to help her dump the body in a construction site near an autobahn. Although the film was entered into the 1967 Cannes Film Festival it is known today chiefly for its soundtrack. The tracks on this LP provide you with the musical highlights from the soundtrack, which has never officially been released.

Talking to Rolling Stone in 2012 collaborator Jimmy Page said “Brian knew what he was doing. It was quite beautiful. Some of it was made up at the time; some of it was stuff I was augmenting with him. I was definitely playing with the violin bow. Brian had this guitar that had a volume pedal – he could get gunshots with it. There was a Mellotron there. He was moving forward with ideas.” In the film’s official press release, director Volker Schlöndorff was delighted with the results. “Brian’s music has worked so marvellously. His special music fits the film wonderfully – and I do not think anyone but he could have done it.”

Is there a tracklisting for this one please?

thanks Captain, but it just goes to show that Brian wasn't the musical genius in the band, in any way with regards to writing songs.

It's a joke.

Thank you very much!

I was never able to find this anywhere through the years.

And the only song with a decent melody he wrote two years before the soundtrack.....
