Bo Harwood - Selections from Last Room on the Right [JOHN CASSAVETES SOUNDTRACK COMPILATION]

In 2013, Bo Harwood uploaded a compilation album entitled Last Room on the Right to his website, which collected the music he had made over the course of his collaborations with John Cassavetes. It’s a fantastic collection of music, and I have included a download link to the full, original version of the compilation at the end of this description. However, I thought a really amazing singer-songwriter type album could be cut together from the compilation, more in the vein of something like Jackson C. Frank. In doing so, I cut 7 tracks from the original compilation (including songs I would greatly recommend such as “It Was Quiet“, “The Love Streams Operetta“, and ““I’ll Leave It Up To You“ which didn’t fit into the concept I had for this compilation), cut down 2 of the improvised jam tapes from the original compilation (“This Year Will Never Come Again“ and “Say Hello Before Goodbye“), and did some shuffling with the tracklist. I think this results in a much more cohesive listening experience that feels like a great lost lofi singer-songwriter album from the 70s. In the following tracklist, each track is tagged in square brackets with the Cassavetes project it was recorded in conjunction with or used in after-the-fact. Tracklist: 0:00 - Just One Moment In Time [Three Plays of Love and Hate] 2:22 - Rainy Fields of Frost and Magic [The Killing of a Chinese Bookie] 6:32 - A Piece of The Pie [Love Streams] 8:15 - No One Around to Hear It [The Killing of a Chinese Bookie] 12:06 - Love Cannot Stay [Love Streams] 15:16 - Almost (In Love With You) (feat. Jack Sheldon) [The Killing of a Chinese Bookie] 18:44 - This Year Will Never Come Again [Opening Night] 22:35 - A Woman: Composite Themes [A Woman Under the Influence] 31:03 - Dorothy/Manny’s Suite [Opening Night] 33:26 - Same Ending Again [Opening Night] 34:54 - The Grandeur of the Theater (2 Pianos) [Opening Night] 36:45 - (You Say You’re) Only A Little Lonely [Love Streams] 39:38 - Say Hello Before Goodbye [Opening Night] Download for Selections from Last Room on the Right: Download for Harwood’s original compilation Last Room on the Right: Note: In this folder is a file entitled which is an essay written by Bo Harwood about his experiences with Cassavetes and personal experiences with music and film, and I would highly highly recommend it as it’s an amazing read.
