Feedback:
by far one of the "coolest" actors inhabiting the artificial world of Hollywood...ahhh, gotta add to flicks another one of my all-time favs: Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean--flat-out tops on the nuttiness chart. Incidentally, great mix too brother...like this dedication mixes of yours!
this is so great! really impressive. i pray for a bill murray edition ;) lol
I've really enjoyed this series, and Paul is onf ov my all-time favs. Really like Side A, although any collection inspired by those movies is bound to be good. I have a copy of Paul singing "Plastic Jesus" from "Cool Hand" which would fit nicely on Side A.
I never realise that Paul was such a funky dude, this looks great
Nice Lalo Schifrin pick! Another great mix in a great series - appreciate the outlining of each side's inspiration too.
Excellent choices. Mr. Newman is a mensch. My cousin (Lou Taylor Pucci) is a young actor and got to ride in Newman's jet; he said yes, they have Newman's chocolate chip cookies on board. :) All-around good guy. Prison Grove fits really well, though I would like to have heard Newman singing "Plastic Jesus" from Cool Hand Luke. on this one!
Very cool.
excellent Dom! you've captured his late 50's thru early 70's flavor. Although the sound may not have worked, it strikes me now that the famous Strother Martin line from Luke ".... is a failure to communicate." cries out for Zep's Communication Breakdown. Oh well - that would change the tone, and I like your mix. I need to see Hud again since I can't think of what the Lalo S. track sounds like. I'd like to place my vote for an upcoming Peter Sellers mix.
awesome! dom, you make my kind of mixes.
this is great -- inspired use of that scott walker tune to close side two
Lots of cool stuff here.
'Salad dresser'! Ha! Good work as ever Dom. Like Tony Joe White & Hazlewood specially.
Excellent, Dom. Don't save it for the salad...(oh,wait! wrong brand)
really great mix, once again, Dom.
Another classic mix. Please keep these kinda mixes coming because thay really are among some of my favourites on this site.
i second the Peter Sellers request so so so hard....
This is great.
Another good one...
You're in England, aren'tcha? I see Peter Sellers has been knocked off the recent 100 thanks to Cinematicjazz and one other guy who has loaded us up with several mixes. Anyway, Cool Hand Luke is on the American Movie Classic station at about 2am tonight, and I wanted you to know that your mix, as well as that video, would be welcome additions to my library. anything I can send you? Is Cool Hand his best role, in your opinion?
Missed this one Dom, truly outstanding mix.
R>I>P Paul.
