Lauded by The Absolute Sound, the original Colgems release continues to remain in pole-position as the best sounding “popular” LP vinyl disc of all time. The soundtrack album has long been considered a cornerstone of the audiophile’s collection. This new vinyl edition has been produced, restored and mastered by wizard engineer Chris Malone, rebuilding the score from the ground up. Previously released on CD by several labels, including us, this edition is an important landmark for this legendary score, and we can proudly say that it now sounds better than ever. Thanks to the legendary sound quality of the stereo copies, this record became one of the most highly sought-after collectibles in the industry. Produced by record industry legend Phil Ramone, the original soundtrack LP offered selected highlights, expertly edited to showcase the best parts of the entire score.
The infectious main theme performed by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass is just the starting point of an epic comedy ride that includes such highlights as the unforgettable “The Look of Love,” sung by Dusty Springfield, or the epic fight music at the end of the film.
