JOCELYN POOK had composed and recorded only one film score before she was commissioned by STANLEY KUBRICK for Eyes Wide Shut - and that was Blight by JOHN SMITH. Newly remastered, the soundtrack is presented here in full for the first time, with an additional track composed by POOK (revisited and extended for this release): Tango with Corrugated Iron.
This record has been produced to coincide with JOHN SMITH: INTROSPECTIVE (1972, the most complete survey of his film work to date, presenting 50 films from a 50-year career. INTROSPECTIVE will launch at the ICA on October with POOK and SMITH in conversation, and a music-themed film programme.
