Roy Budd's 1971 Get Carter soundtrack has been a long time fave ever since hearing the original version of it maybe a dozen years ago. I had first heard the haunting yet catchy melody when The Human League had covered the main theme on their epic Dare album in 1981 - track one, side two. It segued perfectly into "I Am the Law." Most recently, Jah Wobble released a version of it on the ever wonderful Pressure Sounds label.
Thanks to PCL LinkDump for pointing the way to the film of Budd himself performing the piece.
