GREAT MOVIES WORLD AT WAR Soundtracks LP Deer Hunter Navarone Casablanca HMV USA
Various – Great Movies: The World At War (Film Soundtracks LP) (1982)
A hard-to-find US-only import. Produced for HMV Collections by RCA Special Products.
The album features a host of original and cover versions of well-known war movie themes, many of which are vocal versions rarely heard elsewhere. The front cover is misleading however since most of the photos depicted are from films whose music is not featured on the album!
Condition Vinyl – VG-EX. Superbly clean on visual inspection. A few marks and scuffs on side 1, plus some mottling. Side 2 doesn't have any obvious marks but has similar fogging or mottling. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is great. Some light clicks and low surface noise in places but no skipping, jumping or sticking.
Outer sleeve (cover) – VG-EX. Colours are bright, unfaded and clean. Entire sleeve still largely within original shrinkwrap. Edges and spine are intact and undamaged as a result. Aperture is exposed from shrinkwrap and shows light wear with some nicking and buckling. Corners show some scuffing, particularly bottom right corner outside shrinkwrap. Could be hard to find a better example.
Inner sleeve – EX. Original. White paper with squared corners and central hole. Folding, buckling and creases but clean and intact.
