Customer Reviews

2004 Harkit Release w/US Art
"Crime is International, but so is the law! In constant touch with the Police Forces around the world is... The Man From Interpol!"

Harkit has released two versions of this soundtrack. This item is the first, released in 2004, with 30 tracks. (Harkit released a second, longer version of the soundtrack in 2005, oddly listed on Amazon as "Ost Man From Interpol." The 2005 release is a new extended format of almost 80 minutes, 35 tracks, fully restored in stereo and features the original UK cover art.)

This is the extremely cool jazz/lounge soundtrack to the much loved late 50's/early 60's British crime TV show starring Richard Wyler as as Interpol Agent Anthony Smith and John Longdon as Superintendent Mercer.

Packaging & Liner Notes
Standard jewel case with a 2 page booket that features original US release cover art with background notes.

Packaging & Liner Notes
Standard jewel case with a 2 page booket that features the original UK cover art. An interesting feature of this edition is the inclusion of the track 'Eastern Journey' that was the inspiration for Keith Moon of the Who's 'Cobwebs And Strange' that appeared on their 'A Quick One' LP. Who expert, Richard Weiner contributes a note.
