Celebrating the Jerry Fielding centenary, Quartet Records, in collaboration with MGM,  present the long-awaited remastered CD reissue of Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia (1974), an iconic masterpiece starring Warren Oates and Isela Vega and one of the composer’s most celebrated collaborations with his usual partner, Sam Peckinpah.

The somewhat dark, harsh, cool Mexican flavor and bittersweet colors of Jerry Fielding’s score are the perfect match for this unusual tale of violence, death and revenge – a motion picture that also featured a desperate sense of romanticism as shot by Peckinpah.

This complete edition was originally released by Quartet Records in 2012 and quickly sold out. The album was produced by Nick Redman and remixed from the original multi-tracks elements by Dan Hersch. This new CD edition contains the same program and has been remastered by Chris Malone. The package includes a 16-page booklet with a new in-depth essay by film music writer John Takis.

 Celebrating the Jerry Fielding centenary, Quartet Records, in collaboration with MGM, is proud to present the first commercial LP edition of Scorpio, one of the most celebrated collaborations between the composer and Michael Winner.

This CIA thriller starring Burt Lancaster, Alain Delon and Paul Scofield, gave Fielding, a key composer in American 70s cinema, the opportunity to create a haunting Parisian melody, which he then surrounds with his trademark complex motifs, aggressive rhythms, and electrifying action cues, all done in his unique voice and avant-garde style.

Jerry Fielding prepared an LP for United Artists Records in 1973, but it was ultimately aborted. It was finally released in 1978 within the Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection in a limited print run, omitting any images from the film. For this edition, we had access to the original, mint-condition album master in beautiful stereo.

This limited 500 units edition, pressed on audiophile 180 GM transparent red vinyl, has been restored and specially mastered for vinyl by Chris Malone.
