The B-side to Varèse's American Buffalo:




Alternate:




From the Rózsa Treasury:






From the Schifrin box:




I use the LP artwork for the album programs, but I use these for the respective original scores:

For the Airstrip One twofer:






Bonus:




Well, For Whom The Bell Tolls actually is also not the Original Soundtrack. But this didn't stop Varese to put that title...

Touché.

I'm glad you're enjoying these. Most of them are from a few years ago, when I first started adding album art to my iTunes library, and again when I first got an Apple TV, which, on my TV, yields album art graphics that is even slightly larger than that of an LP.

I'm always looking out for better artwork for The Riddle of the Sands.

This one is a brand-new recreation of a cover I did a few years ago:

This is a totally new one. I think this one better captures the spirit of adventure that the score promises than the original cover whilst still maintaining that overall "clean" look:

Those two Horners are fantastic and I'll definitely be using them!

So has anyone tackled a re-do of one of the worst CD covers of all time (for one of the best scores of all time but the cover itself may have single-handedly sunk the album's chance at sales)? I am of course speaking of Christopher Gordon's On the Beach!

Yes, the original blows, one of the worst. Try this one on for size (and maybe one of these days you'll actually accept my Facebook friend request...LOL) ENJOY!!!

I've never heard of this title but looked it up on Amazon. This is indeed a HUGE improvement!

Thanks, Solium!

P.S. If you've never heard this score before, I STRONGLY urge you to try and get hold of a copy. It's a stunning work.

On the Beach is so good it deserves to be on any list of the greatest scores of all time. Too bad so few people have heard it. Thanks for the artwork, Brad, and I accepted your friend request (sorry I missed it before, I only started going back on Facebook much recently, after a couple years of hardly doing anything with it.)

LOL, no worries, Yavar. Hope you like the artwork. Funny, I totally agree about the artwork being a deterrent. Every time I give this score a spin I'm left speechless. But I don't listen to it that often, because the official artwork is such a blah turnoff and I always pass it by.

The artwork looks like the captain(?) is farting a nuclear weapon!

Yes, and he's got a rather odd expression while doing it!

Looks like it's maybe supposed to be a comedy film...yeesh!

I love the On the Beach cover… a huge improvement!

These are alternate covers for the Varèse Fox Classics edition of the Flint original soundtrack recordings to match the Intrada issue of Fox Records album re-recordings:
