I hope it's not Harkit.
Since Dusty Groove carries Harkit titles I'd guess that it is. They don't carry Intrada or Varese or Lalaland or BSX or me, only FSM, and I'm thinking this is not FSM, given that the Dot catalog is not owned by someone they deal with, unless Dot has changed hands recently.
But - what twit wrote the following blurb about Daisy Clover:
"A very strange soundtrack from Andre Previn! The film is an obscure Natalie Wood vehicle -- about an actress in Hollywood of the 30s -- and it appears that Wood is the vocalist on the album's few numbers with lyrics, written by Andre with the help of Dory Previn, making the set one of their earliest collaborations."
It's actually a very typical soundtrack from Previn, very much the Previn sound. But then the twit would actually have had to have heard another Previn score to know that. The film is hardly "obscure" as a film or as a Natalie Wood vehicle. Wood is NOT the vocalist on the album's few numbers (the film soundtrack cues - her vocal tracks are included as a bonus), and this set is hardly an example of one of Andre and Dory Previn's "earliest" collaborations. That would date back almost a decade earlier.

Yeah, but apart from that its accurate !.

Here's the bad news from the Harkit website which uses the old LP and lots of Tristram Carey bonuses. 
One of Jerry Goldsmith's most inventive scores composed at a time when the Russians were at their most annoying! Spies were everywhere, and you didn't know who to trust! Hugely enjoyable score.
A lesser-known, but hugely important contributor – indeed, a pivotal element of the film, was the so-called “Sputnik Code” that was composed by electronica-mesiter, Tristram Cary. Cary never saw the finished film, and, according to his widow Jane, had no idea that Goldsmith was the film’s main musical contributor. He [Cary] had even suggested to director David Greene, that he would have liked to have written the entire score. Tristram Cary is well known to Hammer Horror and Dr. Who buffs for his contributions to background music. This CD features all of Cary’s studio work that has never previously been released as well as the original preferred version of “Comes The Night” by British songstress, Anita Harris.
The sumptuously produced booklet has in-depth biographies on the cast and crew as well as an original essay by noted film music writer, Randall Larson. First time worldwide CD release. Definitely not to be missed!
Track Listing
1. Sebastian - Main Title (J. Goldsmith)
2. You Gotta Let Me Go (J. Goldsmith)
3. The Decoders (J.S. Bach, Arr. J. Goldsmith)
4. Checkmate (J. Goldsmith)
5. Carol's Apartment (J. Goldsmith)
6. Comes The Night - Vocal by Jimmy A. Hassell (Hal Shaper, J. Goldsmith)
7. Night Scene (J. Goldsmith)
8. The Trip (J. Goldsmith)
9. Sputnik Code (Tristram Cary)
10. First Day At Work (J. Goldsmith)
11. Comes The Night - Vocal by Anita Harris (Hal Shaper, J. Goldsmith)
Bonus Tracks By Tristan Cary!
The following bonus tracks which have never previously been released, were all composed by Tristram Cary in his studio for director David Greene. They were the component elements for track 9 (above), and we have decided to include them in their entirety as published works of this important composer are extremely rare, and give an insight into his creative talents in the field of electronic music. His announcements also help clarify his thoughts for the benefit of the director.
12. Sputnik Code Revisions - Code Track
13. Sputnik Code Revisions - Code Without Morse
14. Sputnik Code Revisions - Code at Proper Speed
15. Loop 1 - Clicks and Scrapes
16. Loop 2 - Electronics Codes
17. Loop 3 - Rattle and Low Noises
18. Very Wild Mix
19. Tune With Code
20. Final Code Mix with 10 second Pulses Removed
21. Code Track 1

Please save us Intrada!

And now presenting, Maurice Jarre's SAINT JOAN.
Hmmm, where did that sneak in from?
What do we do? This is unique.

On April 29 Lukas hinted that SEBASTIAN would be getting a better release than the Harkit CD (the thread was subsequently locked). Is that project still on, or did the Harkit item squash it I wonder. If there is no superior CD coming, I'd really like to know.

Refresh my memory- Can you revive that locked thread that all may behold it's contents? Or if we look, will we become a pillar of salt?

The thread was called "Buyer Beware: Harkit (Again)" and I quote:
* * * * * *
....We had major problems with Harkit releasing pirate versions of Bell, Book and Candle and Klute before we did the official ones, and we had to have lawyers stomp on them to keep them from pirating The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Anyway, if they do something with Sebastian, DON'T BUY IT.
Can't say any more -- it's not us working on a license -- but you would be VERY SORRY if you spent money on Harkit's inane vinyl transfer and then saw what was subsequently released for real.
Get it?
Thanks,
Lukas

If this subsequent project is still coming, that's good. But if it perished then I think we have a right to know, given that some people are waiting for it.

It'll be Intrada and I recommend patience. I'll not give one dime to the Damnable Harkit, filthy bootlegging thieves that they are. I'll just listen to my LP burn.
