• Sixteen tracks, vocal and instrumental versions of "The Minx"

About the album

The Cyrkle had a big 1966 with "Red Rubber Ball" and opened for the Beatles on their last American tour, and a few years later they took a job most bands never get offered: scoring Lee Hessel's low-budget 1969 film The Minx. What they made is a lovely period piece of sunshine pop and lounge, with breezy vocal tunes like "The Minx" and "It's A Lovely Game, Louise" alongside groovy instrumentals for chases and parties.

The film itself is very much of its moment, which is part of the fun, and Modern Harmonic includes the whole thing on DVD. The record has had a second life thanks to TV Girl, whose "Blue Hair" is built on the title song. Some soundtracks outlive their films; this one comes with the film, just in case you'd like to check.
