The Penthouse Soundtrack UK 1967 LP Ember Records Catalogue Number NR 5040
Music composed, arranged and conducted by John (Johnny) Hawksworth
Peter Collinson’s X-certified film The Penthouse was adapted from Scott Forbes’ play The Meter Man. The 1967 film depicts an adulterous couple (Terence Morgan and Suzy Kendall) shaken out of their complacency by a trio of thuggish intruders (Tom Beckley, Norman Rodway and Martine Beswick). The Ember soundtrack album (NR 5040) featured original music composed and arranged by John (Johnnny) Hawksworth, Lisa Shane sings The World Is Full Of Lonely Men, and the album is rounded out by dialogue from the film, plus two tracks by Mark Wirtz, previously released on an Ember Mood Music Library album.
?
The music's a mix of jazzy tunes, easy numbers, and a few tracks with wildly clashing styles and sounds, and which have weird speeded up bits and things like that. The soundtrack's really compelling, almost an aural movie all the way through, and it's way more than your usual Soundtrack album of the time!
