I wish this was the whole score, but it’s just two tracks from the RCA single (RCA 2335) which was only a promotional release.

The movie is a little obscure, a sensitive, often downbeat drama directed by Lionel Jeffries, who skilfully sidesteps sentimentality just as he did in “The Railway Children”. Scott Jacoby, a popular young actor in the 1970s, stars as an intelligent but troubled boy, with Patricia Neal as a therapist who becomes a surrogate mother figure. Lewis’ music is excellent, and the two pieces that appear on the single are both typical and untypical of the score; the “Main Theme” appears throughout, often more subdued than the single version; “The Lobster Quadrille” however is a rare lighthearted cue that appears in a comical kitchen scene.

I ripped this from my own copy of the single, lightly de-clicked with Click Repair.

1. Side A - Main Theme from “Baxter”
2. Side B - The Lobster Quadrille

Wow, feedthecats, I remember Baxter!

I first watched Baxter on KHJ TV Channel 9 in Los Angeles around 1975 or '76. In those years, KHJ was a major importer of UK shows and films, most notably on Saturday nights @ 7pm, beginning with Space: 1999. Later in the evening @ 11pm came Grimsley's Fright Night.

Not to change the subject here from Baxter to bad horror flicks (I mean, really baaad), but anybody else out there remember Grimsley, the F'd up vampire?

A little-known factoid, Robert Foster (aka Grim) was also the nephew of Ricardo Montalb�n ("...fine Corinthian leather..."). Small world, eh?

Grim was my intro to so many of the schlocky UK Horror from the 1950s through the early 70's that we take for granted today, including several film soundtracks shared on the Shrine over the years such as Psychomania, and The Horror Express, to name a few.

And the thing was, Grimsley's shows and film commentary really were funny! Unlike some of his contemporaries, then or now, who are mostly forgettable and embarrassing... Grimsley was freaking hilarious, enough to build a sizeable and devoted following that lasts even today.

I still loves me some Grimsley :)

Thanks so much for the link and the memory triggers, feedthecats!
