CD Reviews

Yes, It's Lovely, But I Want the Original Back!
L. S. Slaughter | Chapel Hill, NC | 08/19/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Well, I'm glad Lalo re-recorded/released it, but he could have left good enough alone. It's a stunning score - very Oriental in its simplicity, austere, reflective, and wholly evocative of lonely people aching for Eros in a cold, isolated setting - and I played that old 1968 Warners soundtrack all the way though grammar school, dreaming up gloomy things and atmospheric longings way before I was old enough to see the film adapatation of D.H. Lawrence's short story (which also ranks as Keir Dullea and Sandy Dennis' best film moments, I think). I miss the old arrangements. The ones here are good, but something, for me, has been lost. I don't know who this new vocalist is on "That Night", but she missed all the sultry aching imparted by Sally Stevens on the original recording! Darn! But for those who can't find the original vinyl, it's this is a must-purchase. THE FOX ranks as not only Lalo's best score, but a classic from the golden era of the late 60s, and probably one of the better film scores of all time."
THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK NOW AVAILABLE !
OldieButGoodie | TX | 08/06/2007
(3 out of 5 stars)

"For those who have been unsatisfied with this re-recording of the soundtrack and have waited for the original and for those who are searching for the soundtrack for the first time, the original soundtrack, including vocals by Sally Stevens and Anne Heywood, has been released on the Warner Music/WB label from France, and is currently available on this site under another listing. Because the re-recorded version used the original movie/soundtrack poster (giving the false impression that it is the real one), the new, original soundtrack CD uses an alternate cover. So, if you want the AUTHENTIC, ORIGINAL soundtrack check the other listings for "The Fox" or Lalo Schifrin."
Stunning Re-recording
OldieButGoodie | 08/04/2000

"Lalo Schifrin's "The Fox" is a beautiful score. Jazz, sting quartet and orchestra are represented here. The music has a gloomily dark, contemplative feel that mirrors the events presented in the motion picture. It also seems lonely and isolated as the setting is in a Canadian forest during winter. I've owned the vinyl soundtrack lp for thirty years. It's one of my favorite scores. I'm glad Mr. Schifrin handled the re-creation of his music as it is true to the original recording of 1968. It does not include Anne Heywood's version of "Roll it over" but you can always watch the movie if you need to hear that!"
