CD CLUB GDM-7003
Luis Bacalov
“The film takes place in Beirut and the main theme is an upbeat go-go rock piece with
Arab flourishes. Most of the score appears to be comprised of source music -- casino jazz,
easy listening -- and even the underscore interpolates what appears to be bluegrass, giving
the score an airy, tongue-in-cheek flavor.
The main theme is worked heavily throughout the suspense and action music, but it is such
a light melody that it doesn't add up to much. There are two Ann-Margret vocals,
"Take a Chance" (the main theme) and "Suddenly the Rain" (lounge jazz), for kitsch
value. The score is lovingly presented from the original mono tapes and should please
fans of the film -- FSM
