- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2016Amazing sound track!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2001This double-disc special edition soundtrack summarizes everything that made Mike Hodges' groundbreaking 70's revenge film a cult classic. This soundtrack is mandatory for any fan of the film or of talented composer Roy Budd whose haunting theme is highlighted throughout the album with dialogue samples from the film selectively placed between music cues capturing the gritty atmosphere of Michael Cain's uber-cool Jack Carter. In addition, this album includes a bonus remix CD featuring 10 tracks remixed by some of the most talented techno DJ's world wide and take Roy Budd's main theme to a new level, eclipsing Tyler Bates electronic reworking for the disappointing Stallone remake. This special edition import CD is beautifully packaged in a glossy gatefold sleeve featuring liner notes booklet with stunning cover artwork and photographs capturing the essence of the quintessential film. It is worth every penny (or shilling) to purchase this import version instead of the standard version which includes 28 tracks, 3 more than the standard edition which are basically just additional dialogue samples from the film, however the instrumental version of Getting Nowhere In A Hurry is absent from this edition. I own both versions and the special edition is by far the best, the rarest, and geared for the collector so go get yourself some Carter!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2010Roy Budd is a soundtrack composer you may not know. He never gained the fame of a Quincy Jones or Jerry Goldsmith, but that never kept him from writing one hell of a film score. Get Cater came in 1971--this is with Michael Cane, not the remake with Sylvester Stalone,
Budd made a type of classical funk for his film work, and for a great sampling of that, check out the Get Budd - O.S.T. double CD compilation. But this soundtrack is also important to hear, mixing Budd's style of instrumentals with early 1970s style R&B.
I respectfully disagree with my fellow reviewer. As a fan of deep funk, I highly appreciate the vintage R&B work here. Budd should have gone to work for Stax. Listen hard to "Love Is A Four Letter Word," which I had to stop the CD in the middle to play FIVE TIMES.
For this and Budd's instrumental work, Get Carter. Get Carter today.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2007Got it for the theme song and it sounds great!
The dialogue is an added bonus!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2014Certainly an odd mix of tunes and score music with a lot of dialogue drop ins from the film. If you enjoyed the film though you will like this collection of sounds.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2010Silva Screen Records gives us a re-release of one of the more iconic film scores of the early 70's. Roy Budd's Get Carter is an iconic jazz infused mob score that hits all the right places in crafting a seedy yet cool atmosphere where bravado lives. The main theme is instantly recognizable and was even reused by Tyler Bates for the Sylvester Stallone remake. The tone is set up with that opening them and what follows is a weaving of songs and jazzy score from Roy Budd with some help from Jack Fishman on some of the songs.
It truly does make a difference that all the songs were also composed (in some cases co-composed) by Roy Budd. They fit so well in the overall quilt of the soundtrack as a whole. In fact in this case the songs outnumber the amount of instrumental score, which for me I wouldn't normally consider score but since it works so well here you may as well consider the songs part of the score.
The musical approach here is a bit untraditional considering there is no theme variations within the score. That iconic theme acts more or less as a bookend. We open with it and close with it. The only variation you hear of the theme within the middle of the score is in the track "Manhunt". Now in most cases I prefer heavily thematic and melodic scores, but with the absence of the theme for almost all of the music it makes the impact that much more grand.
So, what has Silva Screen Records done to this classic score that is worth noting? Not much. It's a repackaged collection of the score that you've seen multiple times under different labels. What could they have done to better the listening experience? Remove all the pesky dialogue clips. Honestly, I don't know who was the first person to put dialogue clips on score releases but I would love to meet them so I can punch them in the face. Listen up all record labels! NO ONE wants dialogue with their scores. It doesn't matter if they're separate tracks or infused in the track itself. We don't want them. Get them out of there. If we want the dialogue then we'll watch the film. It adds NOTHING to the listening experience. In fact it ruins it. I'd rather have a short release than dialogue added to beef up the total running time. So, other than that no complaints about this release.

5.0 out of 5 stars ロイ・バッド
最近DVDを購入し、大変気に入ったのでサントラも購入。
70年代っぽい、それでいてメロディを覚えやすい曲がズラッと!車中でエンドレスでかけてます。
ボーナスディスクの方は、メインテーマのリミックス集。
これはこれで、今風でよろしい。
これを機に違うロイ・バッドのサントラにも挑戦してみようかと思う。

5.0 out of 5 stars Great film, great soundtrack.....
‘Get Carter’ is about a gritty and ‘real’ as British films have ever got. From the brilliant opening double bass /piano theme we are immediately in a world of dark deeds and unknown intentions. And so it goes from there…
This a soundtrack that is worthy of every praise. The snippets of dialogue remind just how tightly written and character focused was the script, whilst the brief musical back drops sustain interest even in the absence of visuals.
‘Get Carter’ is a remarkably human film in a way – not only are we riveted by Michael Caine’s performance as the strangely vulnerable yet ruthless killer seeking revenge for the death of his brother, but we aware that that the place where the drama plays out( the North East)is central to the whole feel of the film. The film captures the spirit of the early 70’s. The optimism of the 1960’s has been replaced by the economics and corruption of a new harder –edged era. The glamour and hedonistic excitement are the product of violence and graft. But as a fan of the film, you will already know all this to be true.
Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars クール。
1970年代に東京FM(現エフエム東京)で午前零時直前の5分間に放送していた『あいつ』というラジオ・ドラマのテーマ曲でした。
『ゴルゴ13』にも多かれ少なかれ通づるかも知れません。
「因果応報」という日本の四字熟語が身に沁みます。
