Games people play (Joe South) (LP 1021 - 1022)

Alexandro Jodorowsky/ John Barham  Original Motion Picture Score El Topo (Vinyl, Apple Records, 1971) ***  

Various  Original Soundtrack Recording Come Together (Vinyl, Apple Records, 1971) **  

Genre: Soundtracks; Apple Records

Places I remember: Both of these came from swapping stuff with Noel Forth.

Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: La Primera Flor...

Gear costume: Love is Blue - The Dells

Active compensatory factors: John Lennon's interest in the El Topo film lead to this weird oddity appearing on the Apple Records label. 

The film itself is a violent, surreal anti-western that will either expand your consciousness or test your patience (sometimes both at the same time).

The music is interesting and stands alone as a series of instrumental compositions.

Come Together is a ménage à trois road movie, also from 1971. The soundtrack is a mish mash of dialogue from the movie, hits by The Dells and Joe South and instrumental interludes. 

Someone at Apple thought this was a good idea at the time. It wasn't.

Where do they all belong? Just a various collection from Phil Spector to come in the Apple Records collection - the great Christmas album.
