Rare find. Sealed out-of-print LP.
The Lost Man was a movie featuring Sidney Poitier. As usual, Quincy Jones came with the moody Jazz pieces for the soundtrack such as The Lost Man (Main Title) with some percussion, whistling, and a child’s rhyme, but in a dark and creepy format. The instrumental Slum Creeper that features some stabs and off kilter sound effects in the background is also good, but even better is Main Squeeze with its shouting horns and funky rhythm. The best tracks however are the more straight-forward Soul tunes like Sweet Soul Sister and Try, Try, Try that featuring the singing of Nate Turner, Venetta Fields, and the Mirettes, with the standout being Rap, Run It On Down which is a duet between the two with some funky horn work. There’s also a big Gospel number by the Church Choir called He’ll Wash You Whiter Than Snow.
