There’s nothing quite like a mood-setting score to bring a movie to life. Whether it’s a classic by Ennio Morricone, a grandiose score from John Williams, or a harrowing trip from Goblin, soundtracks are important. They have almost created their own subset of the record collecting community that desperately seeks out rare and unusual soundtracks, which we have plenty of in stock and ready to be added to your collection.
We’ve hand-picked three highlights below, and the rest of our catalogue can be seen at eil.com.
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK Gremlins (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (2016 US limited edition 25-track remastered double LP pressed on 180 gram Brown with White Swirl & Green Swirl Vinyl featuring the original motion picture score to the classic Steven Spielberg movie, composed and conducted by Jerry Goldsmith. Housed in a unique UV sensitive gatefold picture sleeve [when exposed to daylight, it reveals additional artwork] and picture inners [which are water sensitive and whenexposed to a damp cloth, they reveal additional artwork, plus obi-strip. This example was unsealed to verify the colour pressing so although unsealed, all contents are in mint condition MOND-083).
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986 UK 10-track vinyl LP, featring music from the movie starring Dennis Hopper, Caroline Williams and Jim seidow , including tracks by The Cramps, Oingo Boingo Stewart Copeland and many more, housed in a fantastic picture sleeve. The sleeve remains housed in its original shrink wrap with minimal wear to the opening edge and the vinyl appears seldom played MIRF1017).
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK Maniac (Rare original 1981 US 15-track Varèse Sarabande label vinyl LP, with pasted picture sleeve. Jay Chattaway’s eerie soundtrack to the brutal slasher film, which while not officially listed as a video nasty, was swept up in the panic of the time in certain areas of the UK. It has since been cited as one of the greatest slasher movies of all time. The sleeve shows some very minor wear from storage, but the all important vinyl remains in near mint condition. Original copies of this are very hard to find and this is the first time we have seen one here. Recommended).
