Description

You are bidding on a near mint LP copy of the soundtrack to the legendary animation feature "La Planete Sauvage". Both sleeve, insert and vinyl are in near MINT condition. I have only played twice. Comes with deluxe gatefold sleeve and insert (poster) featuring loads of stills from this strange film along with text about the composer, director and writer. A must for soundtrack collectors. Further information: "In 2000, the European label DC Recordings reissued the soundtrack from the cult sci-fi animated film La Planète Sauvage (released in English as The Fantastic Planet). The René Laloux film, which won a Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 1973, was supported by a soundtrack by Alain Goraguer, mostly known for his work as Serge Gainsbourg's arranger. Goraguer's music consists of 25 short vignettes. Each is a contextualized adaptation of one of three main musical themes. The main theme is very reminiscent of Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother Suite" (same half-time tempo, mellotron, harpsichord, and wah-wah guitar), and the other two are a ballad and a circus-like waltz. The music will appeal to fans of French and Italian '70s soundtrack stylings. The album itself creates an interesting marijuana-induced sci-fi floating mood, blending psychedelia, jazz, and funk (the album has been sampled by a few hip-hop artists). The 16-page booklet includes stills from the film, a description of the plot, and biographical notes on the composer, the director, and the illustrator, all in English. DC Recordings reissued the album on LP also including a poster. ~ François Couture, All Music Guide WE SHIP WORLDWIDE, PAYPAL ACCEPTED ETC...
