This is record label Mondo’s first vinyl soundtrack pressing.
It’s a reissue of Jay Chattaway’s original score to director Franck Khalfoun’s 1980 horror film Maniac
For this release Chattaway’s score has been completely remastered (by James Plotkin) before getting pressed on heavyweight 200 gram vinyl.
As Mondo’s first ever record release, it was limited to a strict 500 copies. Of those, 325 copies were pressed on black vinyl while the remaining 175 copies were pressed on a clear/red mix.
Each copy was randomly inserted into the full 500 limited release.
The release also included brand new liner notes by Lars Nilsen and artwork by Ken Taylor.
This is an extremely rare vinyl soundtrack, one sought after by many collectors.
All 500 copies sold out immediately upon release.
This vinyl soundtrack is extremely hard to find, but can still be found from time to time on Ebay at the link below:
