    The 9 film tracks that changed cinema forever.

    Episode 2 of Peter & Gordon +1 - Your new favourite music discussion podcast!Peter, Gordon & Jon (+1) tackle one of cinema's greatest questions: what makes film music truly unforgettable? From Ennio Morricone composing opera in the desert to Quentin Tarantino raiding a record store, from Disney bears to Marvel mixtapes - we play nine tracks that changed music in cinema forever.🎬 FILMS & TRACKS DISCUSSEDPeter's Picks (Music as Time, Place & Character):Phil Harris - "The Bare Necessities" | The Jungle Book (1967)Terry Gilkyson's 1967 composition for Disney's The Jungle Book captures the laid-back jazz philosophy of Baloo the bear in a single, irresistibly singable song. The Bare Necessities: The making of The Jungle Book1997: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhAZEDiKSsMBurt Bacharach - "South American Getaway" | Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)Burt Bacharach's playful instrumental brings a breezy, pop sophistication entirely at odds with the conventions of the western genre — and all the better for it. Performers: Ron Hicklin SingersThe Dixie Cups - "Iko Iko" | The Big Easy (1986)"Iko Iko" has roots stretching back to Mardi Gras Indian tradition, long predating its 1965 recording by The Dixie Cups — who famously recorded it spontaneously using Coke bottles as percussion. Writers: James Crawford, Barbara Hawkins, Rosa Hawkins, and Joan Johnson. Producers: Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller, Ellie Greenwich, and Jeff Barry. Louisiana Stories:https://ronthibodeaux.com/2014/08/18/still-in-rotation-the-big-easy-soundtrack/Gordon's Picks (Original Scores):Ennio Morricone - "The Ecstasy of Gold" | The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)Features the soaring wordless vocals of Edda Dell'Orso over a sweeping orchestral build, creating one of cinema's most transcendent pieces of music. Roy Budd - "Carter Takes a Train" | Get Carter (1971)Roy Budd's minimalist jazz trio — piano, bass, and drums — delivers one of British cinema's most hypnotic opening themes. Michel Legrand - "The Windmills of Your Mind" | The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)Michel Legrand's Academy Award-winning song, with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, is a single unpunctuated sentence that spirals hypnoticall.Jon's Picks (Songs Repurposed by Directors):Urge Overkill - "Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon" | Pulp Fiction (1994)Urge Overkill’s 1992 cover blends alt‑rock attitude with a moody, dramatic edge. Its appearance in Pulp Fiction cemented its cult status, pairing the song’s seductive tension with one of the film’s most memorable scenes. Steppenwolf - "Born to Be Wild" | Easy Rider (1969)Steppenwolf’s 1968 hit “Born to Be Wild” delivers roaring guitars, rebellious energy, and a defining counterculture spirit. Blue Swede - "Hooked on a Feeling" | Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)Blue Swede’s 1974 rendition of “Hooked on a Feeling” transforms the original into a buoyant pop‑rock anthem, instantly recognisable for its “ooga‑chaka” intro. 📱 FOLLOW US:Instagram: @peterandgordonplus1Facebook: Peter & Gordon +1💬 ENGAGE WITH US:What's YOUR greatest film music moment?

    The World's Greatest Albums - Take Three

    Welcome to the very first podcast episode of Peter & Gordon + 1! In this inaugural episode, Peter, Gordon & Jon dive deep into The Telegraph's "50 Best Albums of All Time" list curated by Chief Music Critic Neil McCormick. We each select three albums and tracks from this controversial countdown, debate their merits, their impact, and whether they truly deserve their place in the pantheon of popular music. From 70s rock classics to genre-defining masterpieces, we discuss what makes these songs so influential and share our personal connections to the music. Expect passionate disagreements, nostalgic reminiscences and musical deep dives as we explore the songwriting, production techniques, cultural context, and lasting legacy of nine incredible albums that shaped popular music. Along the way, we share some humour and personal stories that shaped our love of music. Tracks Discussed: Peter's picks: You've Got a Friend - Carole King (Tapestry, 1971)What's Going On - Marvin Gaye (1971)Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac (Rumours, 1977)Gordon's picks: Trans Europe Express - Kraftwerk (1977)Tangled Up in Blue - Bob Dylan (Blood on the Tracks, 1975)Amelia - Joni Mitchell (Hejira, 1976)Jon's picks: Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles (Revolver, 1966)Walk on the Wild Side - Lou Reed (Transformer, 1972)You Can Call Me Al - Paul Simon (Graceland, 1986)Whether you agree with our takes or not, we guarantee you'll come away with a fresh perspective on some of the most celebrated records ever made - and probably a strong urge to revisit your own record collection. IMPORTANT: Due to music licensing restrictions, we can't include the original recordings on Spotify, Amazon or Apple, but we provide detailed analysis and commentary that will enhance your listening experience when you play these tracks yourself.
