Hi, if anyone knows of a UK seller for this, please let me know.
I ended up ordering from Beat records in Europe...cost me just over £24 all in
Thank you! Soundtrack.de was also kindly recommended, worked out at £21.39 including PayPal fee. Getting European releases is certainly more expensive since Brexit. This score is one of the few non Lalo Schifrin releases I’ve been hoping for, for many years.
Wow! That was quick from screen archives to the UK. Or did it come via a UK source as it was sent via a UK Postal 48 hour service? Wondering if the order is taken by screen archives but actually sent from the UK for some of us. Amazing to be listening to this score after all this time. Surprised to hear the re-recording of the released cue is actually very similar to the film. Good moments of Budd action and suspense. Melodic period pop sound works too. Plays pretty well as mono.
My copy arrived Saturday, very impressed with the sound quality and presentation. I was surprised how close to the original tracks the stereo the recordings are. Great to finally have the original score available, Caldera have done a splendid job with this release.
First time (finally!) spinning this. Mr. Budd's groove (even in this "Western" score) is something else. I friggin' love it. Every time I listen to one his scores I think about if he'd still be around and deliver a decent score from time to time... gone too soon!
P.S.: Really great move from Caldera to put that interview on the CD. At first I was skeptical but it is highly enjoyable which of course is due to Mr. Budd being a seemingly likeable fellow (and that female interviewer did a formidable job as well).
Yeah, this is a great score. For years only had those few tracks on that Budd compilation LP, with Catlow and Zeppelin. (Zeppelin was the one i was always disappointed never got released - although would need a bedfellow to make a CD).
