THAT COLD DAY IN THE PARK (1969) music by Johnny Mandel
1The still-unreleased score by Johnny Mandel for the first 'true' Robert Altman film, utilising the music-and-effects (M&E) track from the new Arrow Video Blu-ray, with some additional material from the extended scenes found on that disc. Though this is the "cleanest" quality any of these cues have been released in, some sound effects from the film can still be heard. Track titles are from the original music cue sheet:
00:00 1) That Cold Day in the Park
02:04 2) The Boy
03:10 3) The Dinner
04:16 4) Farewells
05:03 5) Brahms' Hungarian Rhapsody (arr. Mandel)
05:31 6) Greek Folk Song
07:21 7) Greek Encore
07:42 8) The Key
08:49 9) Home Away from Home
10:14 10) A Very Strange Lady
12:04 11) Lortzing's Zar & Zimmerman Overture (arr. Mandel)
15:57 12) Blind Man's Buff
16:51 13) The Doctor's Proposition
17:47 14) Home Away from Home Encore
18:45 15) That Cold Day in the Park (End Credits)
One track listed in the music cue sheet is missing from the film, "Monastery Bells" (listed after the end credits cue - has the film ever played with an outro?). One cue, "The Doctor's Proposition", is listed with the incorrect title on the video - sorry!
"A Very Strange Lady", under the title "I Never Told You", was covered by Quincy Jones on his album Walking in Space (1969): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHxVkYLT1Xw Other versions of "I Never Told You" feature lyrics written by Arthur Hamilton.
