Hi

If anyone has a copy they want to part with as really enjoyed the film! can you offer a price or can exchange for a DW Fog mist variant or Halloween III Flexi Disc Perhaps?

Many Thanks

I have an unplayed copy. What price were you thinking of?

Hi waxinmyhead. How does £50 for it sound? Happy to pay around double for its initial price for your troubles

I used to have this, but sold it to buy some Death Waltz stuff. Bit misleading to call it a soundtrack - as it only has two tracks, probably no more than 12-15 minutes of music. The tracks are good, mind you. Just a bit disappointing there's not more material.

I agree with Andreas. I also bought this when it came out, but sold it a few months ago to fund some other vinyl purchases.

It honestly isn't anything special - sure it looks nice, but it's very short, runs at 45rpm, and I found the music totally forgettable.

I'd imagine that if this wasn't so limited (150 copies), then not that many people would be interested.

Thanks for the insight guys but I did get a copy of this a few months back now. Interestingly managed it via discogs for around £60 - yes expensive really especially considering its 2 track total length but even so a. It seems quite a decent price considering the £90 range I've seen on most other offers and b. although this forum is full of friendly folks helping each other highlight what is out there, I've personally found the much slated discogs as easier to get hold of stuff than on here. I guess that's down to peeps on here generally want to keep hold of what goodies they want to get hold off, all being collectors and all!

Hey, glad you got hold of one! Sounds like a decent enough price (but £90.00 for ANY record is insane, in my opinion). Think I sold my copy for £50.00, but that was a while ago.

I got hold of a promo of this recently (for a bit less than most copies seem to go for) so there are more than 150 copies out there. The promo has the same sleeve but isn't numbered (has promo instead of the number) or signed (I prefer my artwork unmolested anyway).

That doesn't surprise me. There must be loads of pressings out there like that - with more copies than they claim - I think it's been discussed elsewhere on this forum. I sometimes wonder if we shd list 1-150 of this vinyl and see who's got which no. Copy - see if we can track most of them. Highly difficult I'm sure if they all jump hands!
But this soundtrack - yes it does feel a tad disappointing with only two tracks of short length. But I have to say I love the cover artwork off this vinyl and the fact that if rook films go onto release quite a few more this is like the very 1st of them. Almost like the 1st mondo release of Maniac. Course liking the music also helps!
