David Grisman - Music from Capone (2021) [Hi-Res]

In 1975, David Grisman composed and recorded the music for the film Capone, based on the life and times of Al Capone, one of America’s most infamous characters. It was David’s second score for producer Roger Corman, the “Pope of Pop Cinema”. As Grisman says, “This true-life gangster period piece, set in Chicago during the “Roaring 20s” proved to be a great vehicle for the mandolin and many of the ideas already percolating in my composing wheelhouse.” This unique music features the Dawg himself playing mandolin family instruments, violinist Richard Greene, bassist Joseph Carroll, plus a cameo appearance by mandolinist/composer Rudy Cipolla (Portrait of an American Original). Now, 46 years later, Acoustic Disc is proud to make this music available in its entirety, re-mastered in the sonically superior high-definition (24-bit, 96 kHz) format.
