Ralph Burns - Lenny (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Released in 1974, the soundtrack to Bob Fosse's stark and compelling biopic about comedian Lenny Bruce, Lenny is a brooding and atmospheric jazz record that captures the essence of a bygone era. Composed and conducted by Academy Award winner Ralph Burns, this album is less a conventional soundtrack and more a deeply personal jazz suite with a raw and often mournful tone that perfectly mirrors the film's gritty, black-and-white aesthetic. The music evokes the smoky nightclubs and beatnik poetry of the 1950s and 60s, a haunting yet beautiful listening experience that stands on its own as a work of art.
