VA • Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 7 - The Crime Scene



Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
One of the kitschier installments in the Ultra Lounge series, Vol. 7, Crime Scene features a cross-section of easy-listening and movie music culled primarily from Capitol Records' vaults. All of the songs are allegedly "about" or inspired by detective and crime novels and films, so you have movie and television themes (Nelson Riddle's "The Untouchables," "Peter Gunn Suite" as performed by Ray Anthony), as well as songs whose titles imply a crime connection of some sort. It's an enjoyable collection, but it's too incoherent and campy to really be consistently entertaining.

Reseña de Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Una de las entregas más kitschier de la serie Ultra Lounge, Vol. 7, Crime Scene, presenta una muestra representativa de música de películas y de fácil audición extraída principalmente de las bóvedas de Capitol Records. Todas las canciones son supuestamente "sobre" o inspiradas en novelas y películas de detectives y crímenes, así que tienes temas de cine y televisión ("Los intocables" de Nelson Riddle, "Suite de Peter Gunn" interpretada por Ray Anthony), así como canciones cuyos títulos implican algún tipo de conexión con el crimen. Es una colección agradable, pero es demasiado incoherente y campechana para ser realmente entretenida.
