Theme from the movie Gregory's Girl - Colin Tully

Besides being a great film, the soundtrack by saxman Colin Tully is absolutely brilliant and fits perfectly with the lighthearted tone of the movie. The soundtrack was never released in the US and is hard to find in England (and I'm still looking...) Colin's played with the underrated Cado Belle & John Martyn. This is the theme song from the movies intro, and piggybacked is a longer version over the closing credits.

The jazz score lends itself to making this film up their with the greats. Without it the charm and warmth throughout the film may of been lost. Would love to get my hands on the 1985 filmtracks cd.And who's the bass player who sounds like a budding Jaco?

Perfect. Couldn't have said it better myself :-)

my friend's dad composed this! but i should stop boasting about that because i forget that he isn't ACTUALLY my dad...he also played in the band that won eurovision, played on top of the pops and got pissed and jammed with tina turner...

sorry! :P

This music reminds me when i was a kid, i wasnt born in 1981 but grew up in cumbernauld and the theme from this reminds me of many kids programmes i seen at cumbernauld primary school... very emotional and has a lot of happy memories somehow but i dunno why haha
