Bullitt is a soundtrack album to the motion picture Bullitt by Argentine composer, pianist and conductor Lalo Schifrin recorded in 1968 and released on the Warner Bros. label.^[1] The tracks released on the album are alternate versions of those heard in the film and were re-recorded at the film producers' insistence for a more "pop" oriented soundtrack.

Reception

The Allmusic review states "Everything on the album is visually evocative the way good soundtrack music should be, yet the individual cuts are tight and melodic enough to hold up to repeated listens. The end result is a soundtrack that succeeds both as a film score and a stand-alone album. This unique combination makes Bullitt one of the finest achievements in the Lalo Schifrin catalog and one of the best action film scores ever written".Guarisco, D. A.
