You are bidding on an American pressing of the soundtrack LP for the 1977 horror classsic MARTIN starring John Amplas and directed by George Romero. Score is by Donald Rubinstein.
Here's a review from the web:
I picked up the original soundtrack release of Martin back in the early 80s simply on the strength of it being a George A. Romero movie, nothing more. I knew very little about the plot, but I remembered the rave review it got from Newsweek back in 1977, and I loved Varese Sarabande's release of the Dawn of the Dead soundtrack, so that was good enough for me. Right away the haunting opening theme took me away to a dark, secret place where magic, folklore, and insanity mixed together into something new and almost intoxicating. Although that scratchy old vinyl soundtrack was lost (or given away to a friend for some stupid reason), I remembered the music clearly over the years and regret it slipping from my teenaged fingers. Now that soundtrack is back in my library and, once again, I can marvel at this offbeat and haunting jazz score. Believe the raves, this is one of the top 100 film scores of all time. Beautiful, creepy, and an essential in any film music collectors library. Highest recommendation.
Released on the Varese Sarabande Record label in 1979. Code STV 81127.
Excellent used condition. Sleeve has very light foxing to rear. Vinyl is excellent.
