Another couple of rarities that turned up this week, The Mothers LP is a US pressing.. Zappa at his most scathing! The Dunwich Horror OST is a bit of a departure for Les Baxter, who was most well known as a prime exponent of the 50's lounge/exotica boom, 'Quiet Village' being his most famous composition. Loosely based on the H.P. Lovecraft novella, the film stars Sandra Dee and Dean Stockwell, and the soundtrack is suitably dark, with familiar motifs from Baxter's previous work atop Morricone-esque strings and full band arrangements. Both available in the shop now xx

Only the best at Rosered, nice to see Rod Jane & Freddy looking well 😄
