La-La Land Records and Universal Pictures proudly present the debut title in the Universal Pictures Film Music Heritage Collection—the world premiere release of renowned composer Michel Colombier’s (UNE CHAMBRE EN VILLE, AGAINST ALL ODDS, RUTHLESS PEOPLE, THE GOLDEN CHILD) original motion picture score to the 1970 classic sci-fi feature film COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT, starring Eric Braeden, Susan Clark and Gordon Pinsent, and directed by Joseph Sargent. Never before officially available in any format, Colombier’s wildly inventive score finally gets the deluxe treatment it deserves. It’s a musical marvel, and key to the film’s unending cult status, as it expertly balances cold suspense and unrelenting dread with moving emotion and even romance. Produced, mixed into stereo from 3-channel split elements, and mastered by Mike Matessino, this special release is limited to 3000 units and features exclusive, in-depth liner notes by writer Jeff Bond and sharp art design by Dan Goldwasser.

The sample track labled "Rendezvous in Rome" is actually "Missile Launched." Otherwise the samples sound terrific and I'll be eager to finally have this one to get lost in.
I also agree with the above comments about Colombier's theme for THE SURVIVORS and his score for THE OTHER MAN. They've both been nestled in my memory bank since I first heard them.

It's just kind of cool, so many decades later, that I'm able to snag both Damnation Alley and Colossus in the course of six months. Makes this sci-fi fan (who came of age in the 70's) one happy camper!

"Rendezvous in Rome" does start on the plane but the bulk of this track has never been heard before since it was dialed out and replaced with Colombier's main title music in the film. Don't worry, all of the score is included as well as some fascinating unused material.
Thanks Jeff!
And in the future, for ALL RELEASES, I recommend that folks hold comments like this until they actually have it in their hands.

And maybe next cats and dogs will be living together. ;-)
I still haven't found the time to sample this yet.
