Artist:  Walter Carlos

Title:  Clockwork Orange

Date:  1972

Label:  Columbia Records   KC 31480

  

Notes:  Here we have music created for the incredibly strange Kubrick film based upon the book by Anthony Burgess. Not all of the tunes were used in the final cut, but they all were drawn from the same well. As fascinating as it is disturbing the film rides along on the electronic carpet woven by Carlos and Rachel Elkind. From the seeds of an "wouldn't it be great if…" comment came the request from Kubrick to meet with the pair to discuss using Walter's music for the film. Even if we put all that aside the record is still a strong collection of material. The cover art brings different elements of the film together in collage form. Not for the faint of 'art.
