Horror Soundtrack Vinyl: Goblin Reissues, Twins of Evil, and More

Turntabling has scored some DELICIOUS soundtrack vinyl as of late. We’ve also scored quite a lot of LPs and 12-inch singles in the goth/industrial genres. These titles are all coming up for sale quite soon, but as they’ve only just arrived we thought it would be fun to tantalize you with these images:

House By The Cemetery, directed by Fulci, with an outstanding soundtrack by Walter Rizzati. The Death Waltz version of this includes blood red vinyl and a poster…this is quite a find!

Death Waltz strikes again with the never-before-on-vinyl (according to the LP notes) soundtrack for Twins of Evil! Peter Cushing was so awesome in this movie…it deserves a new viewing now that the vinyl is out.

Let’s set the record straight on the Patrick soundtrack. There are TWO VERSIONS of this–one is the ORIGINAL soundtrack by Brian May (who was the same person responsible for a lot of other film soundtracks including Mad Max) and the other (the one pictured here) is the EXPORT version of the soundtrack with music by GOBLIN. I’ve seen both versions of the film and it feels quite different with the Goblin music as opposed to Brian May. I prefer the Goblin, myself.

I’ll have all of these and more up for sale quite soon in the Turntabling shop on Discogs. Every time you purchase from Turntabling, you’re supporting the site, so I thank you for your continued support to keep Turntabling running.

And while you’re pondering that, have a look at these trailers for House By The Cemetery, Twins of Evil, and Patrick.

Space 1999 Soundtrack Vinyl

space-1999-soundtrack-vinyl

Paul Durango’s fun blog features this vinyl soundtrack from Space 1999, the least scientifically accurate of all the science fictions television to come out of the cheesy 70s.  Durango found the album, and offers a zipped digital version for your listening pleasure. The soundtrack is full of cornball 70s wah-wah guitar playing, moody atmospherics and the requisite sighing string section and echoey xylophones. You could download a whole mess of Barry Gray’s Space 1999 soundtrack music from Amazon, but do yourself a favor and check out Paul Durango’s post first.

On a side note, some of the reviews for the CD/download version of the soundtrack are almost as funny as the series itself. One breathless reviewer gushes, “Our composer Barry Gray writes powerful cues that will make any youngster and adults alike leap for joy.”

Leap for joy? What the hell is THIS guy taking? I want some.

Behold the pure 70s style queso of the original intro. Revel in THIS cornball nonsense–still great for laughs after all these years. You really need a six pack or some kind of plantlife to properly enjoy this, but this is the epitome of 1970s boob tube-dom in all its’ hilariously wretched excess. I mean, really–the main conceit of this show is that the moon has been knocked out of its orbit and is sailing through space with 300 people living on it!
