I love the main title score and visuals as Harry is walking around the top of the skyscraper with the bay in the background. The drumming is awesome and then that bass comes in!
I wonder if Carol Kaye handled bass on this soundtrack. Carol did a lot of work with Schifrin, including 1966's Mission: Impossible. And if you listen closely, you can hear Carol's fingerprints (figuratively) on this. And in the off chance this isn't her, a good mimic is at work.
Yesss!! Ridiculously SICK and then shortly thereafter comes some more bass and then guitar or whatever kicks in at 8:36 and pumps up even further at 8:40
Harry: When a naked man is chasing a woman through an alley with a butcher knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross. Mayor: i think he's got a point.
Frank: Yes. Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's my policy. Mayor: That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, you moron! You killed 5 actors! Good ones!
I would tape portions of the theme music from Dirty Harry on an old cassette tape recorder and listen to it because it mesmerized me. The theme at the closing of the credits starting at 16:52 is so haunting. A brilliant idea from the director Don Siegel to phase out Harry and his disgust with the system that caused "Scorpio" to remain on the streets with somber music. Lalo Schifrin is a legend. Thank you for this Soundtrack of the Mind.
The series is STILL my absolute favorite... Especially since my dad was SFPD from 1958 1984... He retired as an SFPD Inspector ( Night Investigations Unit )...
Important film score in his cannon of great film scores for Mr. Schifrin. Powerful and stands alone away from the imagery which is pretty amazing in itself. 1971 San Francisco was a time and a place and this film captured it perfectly.

Yeah & Bullit was released 3 years before Dirty Harry too. Both now rightly seen as classics in their own right & both set in San Francisco when it was still a groovy place to live in, work & visit. Quite a bit different today.
Great Soundtracks from Lalo Schifrin !!! I was surprised when I heard soundtrack from Enter the Dragon and Sudden Impact there's a long list of great soundtrack from Lalo Schifrin.
Loving Lalo and the comments about the drummer are spot on. I love that I can hear the metronome in between the drummers bursts, he must have had it cranked in his cans!
Man, I grew up in the Bay Area as a kid in the 70's & 80's with great memories of this film series. Love all of Lalo Schifrin's FUNKY soundtracks! #Bullitt #DirtyHarry #EnterTheDragon and MORE!
One of the best film scores ever, in my opinion. I have the soundtrack on CD. I have a rather love/hate relationship with jazz, but Lalo Schifrin is in a class by himself. The piece at 1:30 is some kind of special jazz in my book. It has so many ideas in it, amazing percussion and killer bass line.
It’s no surprise that Schifrin was chosen to write this score as Eastwood has always been a huge jazz aficionado and can play standards and jazz chords I believe. The man knows how to produce a film and schifrin delivered the goods as always 👍😎
What genius! Aww... I forgot how sad the end theme was. :( Today's sound tracks are tomorrow's classical music. Lalo's are among the best. Great combo of jazz and orchestra instruments with electronica in its earlier years. I especially love this and "Bullitt." Music like this gets me in the mood to work on my (so far) never-ending novel.
When you listen to the music you do not think about personality of creator . I love Miles and in 60 s he also made some movie soundtruck. But I FIND FEW COMPOSERS WITH SAME OR EVEN BETTER POSSIBILLITIES.
That 'squeaking gate' sound effect in Scorpio's Theme adds something to the flavour. Throw in the melancholy female vocals, rhythm and blues percussion, light orchestral score to produce a very creepy yet spot on. There was also a fair bit of jazz for which Clint Eastwood is a fan.
The incoherent female voice and squeaking gate represented Scorpio's disturbing homicidal mindset with the increasing speed of the drumming, electric guitar, synthsizers, horns, and strings gradually driving his murderous impulses into insane speed. Brilliant Schifrin scoring for sinister "bad guy" music.
music full of psychedelia full of 70s love and peace and also haunting at times and scary too..... Close the lights close your eyes and enjoy the brilliance of his music...
Introduced by a Portishead essential mix circa 1994/5 I think maybe others may remember. Just magical slot in .ina wonderful eclectic jazz orientated mix of great quality and perceptive imagination.when most mixes on Radio 1 u.k. where following popular trends it seemed at least to me 🙂 props Portishead wonderful stuff indeed !!!!!!!!.Also what a great composer this man is .
Lalo Schifrin's soundtrack for Dirty Harry doesn't come up often enough when it comes to film music that the surrounding films would not work anywhere as well without. It's basically the pitch perfect 1970s crime thriller score.
that logo with the face/gun is genius
It holds a certain resemblance....

What a legend, first heard this when I was 10.
The effect hasn’t worn off yet!
more effort went into the soundtrack of Dirty Harry than into the entirety of most films today! Lalo Schifrin is just amazing.
This score still kicks ass today
Many great film composers out there, but Lalo Schifrin's DH score is amongst the very best. It made the movie fly...

It goes from jazz to bluesy funk pretty quick
The transition at the beginning is fantastic.

Best film music ever late 60s early 70s. Jazz&soul. Backbeat beats anything around 2day. Must have been herbie hancock & bros jammin!😅

Absolutely brilliant! This and the Magnum Force sound track are masterpieces
