Limited vinyl LP pressing housed in deluxe Stoughton Tip-On jacket. After decades of languishing in the cryptic haze of shabby bootlegs, the soundtrack to Roger Watkins' sleazy horror magnum opus Last House On Dead End Street (1977) is finally achieving the grand debut it deserves. Comprised entirely of tracks from the legendary KPM Music Library, the soundtrack is a unique blend of haunting experimental terror electronics - the pure atmospheric embodiment of the film's oppressive ominous vibe. For this vinyl-only release, all tracks have been sourced directly from KPM's archival master tapes, exposing the full dynamics and penetrating intensity of this music. As an added bonus, some of KPM's masters run longer than the versions that they originally issued on LP and are included here in their complete expanded form. All artwork was scanned from a rare surviving 35mm print to properly capture its grindhouse grime. Isolated from the film, the music is an astounding and impactfully curated collection of sinister hidden gems from the mythic underworld of British 1970s avant-garde electronic music including Delia Derbyshire, David Fanshawe, Ron Geesin, Alan Hawkshaw, Eric Peters, and Lewis Stern.
