After The Fox Original MGM Motion Picture Soundtrack Enhanced CD ENHANCED Soundtrack

Reader Reviews
The title track combines Bachrach's melodramatic, weird major/minor chord progressions with Peter Seller's gift for musical mimicry/gimmickry. It's probably one of Burt's better tunes and productions, ably abetted by the high tenor harmonies of the Hollies and Mr. Seller's fake Eye-talian accent. Reminds one of Peter's take on "A Hard Day's Night," wherein he did the Beatles' tune in the voice of Laurence Olivier as Richard III. His silliness worked well in a musical setting, and it's surprising that Peter didn't do more musical comedy recordings. As for Burt, what can one add? This is classic Bacharach soundtrack work, and I actually prefer it to many of his other soundtracks. Lots of harpsichords, tack pianos, accordions, mandolins, and other exotica instrumentation combined in that inimitable style. A must-have for Bacharach afficianados.
