OST-Rollerball

DSCN3899With a discount, this came out to $4.80.  See what I did there?  I bought a a $6.00 record during a 20% off sale.  Pretty sneaky, eh?p4677_p_v8_aa

Yes, before The Rockets, The Dynamo, The Comets, or The Aeros, Houston had a championship Roller Ball team, mostly due to the stellar play of Jonathan E. , played by James Caan.  His boss, played by John Houseman, wants him to retire.  Individual recognition does not help promote the “”resistance is futility” line that the Corporations in the future try to tow. This was the whole reason behind coming up with Roller Ball.

This film came out in 1975 to generally good reviews and  decent sales.  It was remade to less of ether acclaim in 2002. My pop showed me the movie one year during Christmas.  He really liked it.  I like it as well.rollerball-04

And that is what I am using for a sample, a g-funk sounding number by Previn, “Executive Party”.tumblr_ma6x21hCsq1qkcj94o1_1280

Satisfactory album and movie.
