Dragon’s Domain Records, to be distributed through buysoundtrax.com, presents THE ALBERT GLASSER COLLECTION, VOLUME 7: FILM NOIR THRILLERS #1. With this seventh collection of the composer’s music, we are pleased to explore two more films from the composer’s vast filmography, PLEASE MURDER ME and TREASURE OF MONTE CRISTO. Both of these scores demonstrate Albert Glasser’s capability to craft a powerful soundtrack with limited means.

Released in 1956, PLEASE MURDER ME is a first-rate noir thriller. Directed by Peter Godfrey (HOTEL BERLIN, THE TWO MRS. CARROLLS, THE WOMAN IN WHITE) from a screenplay from Donald Hyd and Al C. Ward, PLEASE MURDER ME stars Raymond Burr, Dick Foran, and Angela Lansbury. Glasser provides a suitable orchestral score that fits the film’s noirish oeuvre, bolstered by the frequent use of theremin. 

Released in 1949, TREASURE OF MONTE CRISTO, a fast-moving modern American suspense/noir crime drama directed by William Berke (ISLAND WOMEN, FOUR BOYS AND A GUN, F.B.I. GIRL, FURY OF THE CONGO, TRAIN TO TOMBSTONE, CAGED FURY). Starring Glenn Langan (Edmund Dantes), Adele Jergens (Jean Turner), and Steve Brodie (Earl Jackson), the film is a mix of historical fiction and modern crime drama about a crooked San Francisco lawyer (Earl) who uses a beautiful blonde (Jean) to lure a merchant seaman (Ed, a descendant of the Count of Monte Cristo) into a trap to locate a fortune in jewels that disappeared thirty years before from a castle in southern France. Filmed entirely in San Francisco, Albert Glasser gives the movie a splendid orchestral score that accommodates both the film’s storyline and the monochrome background of 1949’s San Francisco. 

Dragon’s Domain Records presents THE ALBERT GLASSER COLLECTION VOLUME 7: FILM NOIR THRILLERS #1, featuring original music composed by Albert Glasser for PLEASE MURDER ME and TREASURE OF MONTE CRISTO, mastered by James Nelson at Digital Outland. The booklet contains liner notes written by noted film music journalist and author Randall D. Larson.
