Our Take

After re-re-re-listening to Kenyon Hopkins' jazzy soundtrack for The Hustler, it's clear that this man knew how to hit all the right notes. From the smooth saxophone solos to the groovy basslines, Hopkins effortlessly captures the essence of 1960s cool with a dash of grit.

The album kicks off with the iconic "Main Title" track, setting the tone for the rest of the record with its swaggering brass and infectious rhythm. As the music swells and dips, you can almost feel yourself being transported to a smoke-filled pool hall, hustling your way to the top.

Tracks like "Minnesota Fats" and "Lonely Night" showcase Hopkins' ability to create atmosphere through his music, evoking a sense of mystery and longing. It's the kind of soundtrack that you can easily imagine accompanying a late-night drive through the city, the neon lights flashing by in a blur.

Overall, The Hustler soundtrack is a timeless masterpiece that deserves a spot in every jazz lover's collection. With its dynamic arrangements and unforgettable melodies, Kenyon Hopkins' music is a true testament to his talent as a composer. So pour yourself a glass of whiskey, sit back, and let the smooth sounds of The Hustler wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
