Note: It is not known for sure whether - or how much - Gary McFarland participated in this recording, but the session is included in this discography because of a 1961 Ralph Gleason column which states, "One of McFarland's arrangements, a version of "The Theme From 'The Apartment'" was recorded recently by Sonny Stitt…" (thanks to Kristian St. Clair).

Note: McFarland states he was present at this session and had provided arrangements for the recording of his compositions. Hodges ran through them and then discarded them and recorded the pieces in his own way. There are no Verve matrix numbers for these since they were only early takes of the final pieces. These versions were issued on Verve V6-8406, not included here since the final record did not include McFarland's participation.

Note: (1) Other titles without Gary McFarland (2) According to discographer Michael Cuscuna, the Verve master numbers indicate that this session was recorded in December 1961 and this is confirmed by the Verve recording log. The original album states December 1962 and while this might be a bit of record label falsification (common at the time) to suit the album title GERRY MULLIGAN ‘63, Bill Crow’s work diary seems to substantiate that date.

Consumers were encouraged to save Fresca bottle caps and redeem them for a 45 of the song, as listed above - with Mitch Miller pictured on the picture sleeve beckoning "Hey gang, sing up a blizzard with us! Mitch." Thanks to Paul Conway for alerting me to this listing. (2) The actual commercial shows McFarland conducting an orchestra and four-person chorus singing words to the song. The corresponding record, listed here, is instrumental but does reprint the song's lyrics on the record's picture sleeve.

p. Jacques and the Eye (Gary McFarland) - 1:23
q. Trailer (Gary McFarland) - 2:33

Note: (1) The film Eye of the Devil was originally titled 13 when Gary McFarland wrote and recorded this score. Verve Records had intended on issuing a soundtrack album in early 1967 (scheduled as V/V6-8674), and although the album was designed and advertised, production problems which delayed the release of the film stalled the release of the soundtrack until Film Score Monthly finally issued its first-ever release four full decades later, shortly after Deborah Kerr, the last of the film's surviving stars, had passed away. The main theme (titled as such above and below) has also been recorded under other titles, including "13", "Theme from 13", "13 (Death March)", "Eye of the Devil" and, most prominently, as "One I Could Have Loved". McFarland also recorded a theme he originally called "Jacques" (after the son in the film, who will inherit his father's fate - curiously something that was not too dissimilar from what happened between McFarland and his son, Milo) as "Childhood Dreams" with Steve Kuhn on THE OCTOBER SUITE, which can be heard as "Jacques in Bed" above. Here are the titles as they appear in Creed Taylor's production notes for the Verve release and the order of tunes according to the Verve matrix numbers:

1. (101095) Main Theme (Journey) = b
2. (101096) Main Theme (Harp) = a (Main Theme, without intro)
3. (101097) Main Theme (Kids) = c
4. (101098) Death March (Part 1) = m (first half)
5. (101099) Death March (Part 2) = m (second half)
6. (101100) Death March (Part 3) = n
7. (101101) Death March (Part 4) = o
8. (101102) Voices (Ceremony) = d (Int. Chateau Interior)
9. (101103)  Main Theme (End) = p
10. (101104) Voices And Bells In Church = k
11. (101105) Christmas Theme = g (Children on Parapet)
12. (101106) Hypnotizing Odillo Theme = g (Catherine and Odile on
     Parapet) segue to f (Arrow Into Tree)

MIRAGE (THE GAMES PEOPLE PLAY) (ballet)
Billy Wilson and the Dance Theatre of Harlem
c. 1968/69
unknown musicians.

(unknown titles)

Note: (1) Ballet reviewed in the March 1, 1979, New York Times by Anna Kisselgoff, in part states "Mr. Wilson, who is now well known as a Broadway choreographer, created MIRAGE over 10 years ago and its subtitle, 'The Games People Play' is an accurate description of his wife-swapping scenario at a dinner party. Gary McFarland’s jazz score has its lyrical passages for the love duets that make up the best choreography. (2) Reviewed in the New York Times March 20, 1987; states in part: "The action is now more tightly pulled together than ever, the comic timing to Gary McFarland’s score very sharp. (3) This work was also performed and reviewed by the New York Times in 1984 and 1989. No mention of the score in those reviews, however.

Issues: None (A November 3, 1989, performance was videotaped for the Jerome Robbins Archive at the Library of Congress (69mins)).
