<\/p>\nDerrick & Der Alte – Music from the original tv-series (1974-1984)<\/p>\n
DERRICK turns 50 this year. Although the best-selling German TV series has been somewhat quiet about lately due to the posthumous revelation of Chief Inspector-actor Horst Tappert’s Nazi past, this has not dampened its success and popularity. And a comparable crime series continues to this day: DER ALTE. The unifying element and theme of this album are the soundtracks by Peter Thomas, who gave both series a musical dream start.<\/p>\n
Peter Thomas composed the music for the first DERRICK episode \u201cWaldweg\u201d (1974). Six more episodes followed. The composer and musician even made a cameo appearance in the DERRICK episode \u201cTod des Trompeters\u201d (1976), where he is in the audience of singer Sabrina (Emy Cesaroni) and briefly interacts with her. The corresponding song \u201cOhne Dich ist es Nacht\u201d was once a successful single and can also be heard on this album. Peter Thomas even wrote the theme music for the first 100 episodes of the TV crime series DER ALTE, which was launched in 1977. In addition to the pilot film \u201cDie Dienstreise\u201d, he also scored three other episodes, including the scandalous episode \u201cDer Alte schl\u00e4gt 2x zu\u201d.<\/p>\n

The illustrations on and in the gatefold cover of the LP, which perfectly reflect the look of the series, were created by Adrian Keindorf.<\/p>\n
Track listing LP:<\/strong><\/p>\n Side A Side B 50-Jahre-Derrick-Bonus (CD und LP): * Previously unreleased<\/p>\n Musically, the spectrum ranges from a discofox version of \u201cThe House Of The Rising Sun\u201d to easy listening as well as krautrock and funky instrumentals. It’s surprising how experimental people were in the seventies when it came to the musical equipment of TV series, before the synthesizers overtook everything in the eighties.<\/p>\n More than half of the tracks on this album are previously unreleased, so we can confidently speak of a premiere. As a bonus, two tracks from the first DERRICK episode are included, which have turned up in the estate of Peter Thomas. From the same source – but only included on the CD for reasons of space – come the presentation of two versions of the \u201cDER ALTE\u201d title theme presented by Peter Thomas and a demo version of \u201cOhne Dich Ist Es Nacht\u201d sung by himself.<\/p>\n Following Bruce Lee: The Big Boss<\/em>, Winnetou and Old Firehand<\/em>, Steiner – Cross of Iron 2<\/em> and Edgar Wallace<\/em> this is the fifth LP\/CD release in a series dedicated to composer Peter Thomas (1925-2020).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This edition of the LP is printed on beige-colored 180g vinyl and comes in lined inner sleeves and splendid gatefold cover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13523,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[227,618,188],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-13563","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-crime","7":"product_cat-peter-thomas-sound-orchester-en","8":"product_cat-soundtracks-en","9":"product_shipping_class-tontraeger-schallplatte-en","10":"entry","11":"clearfix","12":"entry-grid","13":"entry-columns-3","14":"entry-product-module-layout-sidebar-right","15":"thumbnail-color-tone-dark","16":"entry-product","18":"entry-product-grid","20":"first","21":"instock","22":"taxable","23":"shipping-taxable","24":"purchasable","25":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
