Very sad news

R.I.P. Val.

Yeah he was a very good actor, and very underused imo - he was great in heat and tombstone
 that said I doubt he would have done much more if he lived longer, and he got to live a life that’s better than 99% of the world aside from his health complications and early death.

Always seemed like a nice positive guy when he was on FB a few years ago 
 if indeed it was he, but I think it was himself 
 So, as Jack / ‘Hunt’ would say, ‘Onwards’

Rest in peace, amigo.

R.I.P. LALO SCHIFRIN, aged 93


Adios to one of my all-time favourite film and TV composers

Such a true and monumental legend; but one that leaves behind an enduring legacy - an absolute treasure trove of once heard, never forgotten music, and eternal memories.

Of course
‘Pigeon-toed Orange Peel’, as used in another of his great scores, ‘Coogan’s Bluff’
starring Clint Eastwood.

My younger brother and I used to sing ‘Pigeon toed orange peel’ when we were just kids, thinking it the funniest 1960s nonsense we’d heard.

Old Lalo was certainly a prolific composer and one of the most recognizable film score guys of the 1960s and 70s 
 the main theme from ‘Magnum Force’ is the one piece that comes to mind when he’s mentioned, with that thundering bass guitar and it’s groovy menace.

I think that Lalo Schifrin was the ‘musical voice’ of so many characters (‘Cool Hand Luke’, ‘The Cincinnatti Kid’ etc), but never more so than for the character of Dirty Harry Callahan in the four films that he scored
