About this album

How to Beat the High Cost of Living is a sleek jazz-funk soundtrack that brings together flautist Hubert Laws and guitarist Earl Klugh at their most melodic. Issued in 1980 for the comedy film of the same name, the score leans into easygoing groove, polished arrangement and light-footed suspense rather than heavy drama. Laws and Klugh give the music a refined crossover feel, balancing breezy themes with sharper rhythmic touches that suit the film’s comic crime caper tone. It stands as a neat example of late-70s and early-80s soundtrack jazz that bridges cinematic function and standalone listening.
