Reni Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I am going to have to get that record....even though I don't have a record player right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jc4prez Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I am going to have to get that record....even though I don't have a record player right now. what an awesome film, i'll have to look for him next time I watch the movie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reni Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 it's my all time favorite film.....and has been since I first saw it when I was 15 years old. I think I have all of the soundtrack songs on various discs - but it will be cool to have the record. I was always frustrated that a soundtrack had never been released for that movie.

It's a 2 disc CD, and the inclusion of those songs is why I bought it. Harold & Maude is one of my top ten favorite films -- too hard to rank in order, but it's among good company in that list Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, at the time - (1984) that was the only way to get it. Like all the other old rock dudes, he now has multiple hits/anthology packages of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marijn Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Bound For Glory is my favorite Ashby-film, but this has to be one of the most beautiful soundtracks ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chuck Turner Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Thanks for posting this Analogman. I first saw H&M in Montery CA. summer of 75, in a theater on Cannery Row. I was 16. What got me to post was looking up Jean Roussell, Cat Stevens' piano player. For some reason I thought he had passed away, but no, Jean Roussell is alive and well. In 96,97,98 I played in a group with Jucy Lucy vocalist Paul Williams. I almost lost it when I found out Jean Roussell had been in Jucy Lucy on the "Pieces" album 1972. Jean Roussell also played on some classic Bob Marley albums, a nice discography. Evidently he's also on the newest Cat Stevens/ Yusef Islam(sp) disc. Bound For Glory is my favorite Ashby-film, but this has to be one of the most beautiful soundtracks ever. In Bound for Glory, Woody Guthrie is played by David Caradine. A friend from my hometown, Rob Moses has been Carridine's training partner for the last 25 years. (Me I'm a "Major Nobody"* but i still love the circles in life). In "Spiral Fitness" and *Nine Palms" Moses and Carradine explore the circles, spirals, sacred geometry of life . . . dam, wish I had a clue, how come everybody gets this life thing but me, gotta think of a way to kill myself and come back and see if anybody misses me, better watch Harold and Maude again. * "Major Noboby" = a has been who never ever was - (mike watt) maybe if i could play in a band with Nels Cline again, someday, naahhh, i would just create more haters Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 Although, I guess now that we have everything in the world online, he is now credited. Dan Haggerty - Easy Rider (1969) (uncredited) .... Man in Commune Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 Yes - that is how I noticed it all the way back in the 70s. He is in two scenes that I can think of - one, where the hippies are throwing seeds on the ground - and, also, the scene where they are having the prayer before they eat.
