This CD represents Dirty Harry’s premiere release, complete with the original sessions masters remixed for stereo. Schifrin achieved an action score that would come to be defined as the quintessential work in seventies action cinema. Urban jazz-funk formed the basis, with a driving, percussion-based jazz ensemble, and a ghostly chorale for the Scorpio scenes. All of the music originally recorded for the film is here. A true collector’s item.

Directed by Don Siegel, Dirty Harry stars Andrew Robinson, Clint Eastwood, Harry Guardino, John Larch, John Mitchum, John Vernon, Lyn Edgington, Mae Mercer, Reni Santoni and Ruth Kobart.
