Jethro Tull - Live At Montreux

"A landmark release …..one of their most satisfying albums in years.”  Jethro Tull is one of the most successful bands of all time.  In 2003, Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull made a visit to the Montreux Festival.  The concert was a musical triumph combining semi-acoustic and full-on electric performances of some of their best known and loved recordings.The near-perfect set list has something for every kind of Tull fan for this live album shows Tull at all stages of their career, gentle melodic numbers, hard driving rock anthems and several tracks that mix these approaches along with a number of additional musical styles together. Noteworthy to the double-album package are Ian Anderson's witty and informative liner notes.

RE-ANIMATOR SOUNDTRACK

Waxwork Records has teamed up with composer Richard Band to release his score to the 1985 horror film, RE-ANIMATOR. We’re excited to release this great soundtrack from the fantastic H.P. Lovecraft tale of horror.

Re-Animator will be a limited release that guarantees buyers the LP on green 180 gram vinyl. There will be a limited number of variant glow-in-the-dark vinyl that will be randomly inserted. Re-Animator will go on sale May, 31st 2013.

The score was composed and conducted by Richard Band and performed by the Rome Philharmonic Orchestra. The soundtrack has been re-mastered specifically for vinyl, and the full LP package (front and back cover, record sleeve, and center A-side B-side labels) will feature artwork from Gary Pullin (Ghoulish Gary). You can also expect a massive poster of the cover art. Included in the package will be notes from the composer and director giving insight and information on the score and film. The record sleeve will include original photographs from the 1985 recording sessions in Rome, Italy. The score is a masterful work that fans of horror and sci-fi have acknowledged and loved for nearly three decades.
