Forbidden Planet Reissue


I was very pleased to find out that the Louis and Bebe Barron Electronic Soundtrack to the Film Forbidden Planet has been reissued by Poppy Disc on vinyl. If you have never heard this wonderful soundtrack, you really are missing out.
Husband and Wife team Louis & Bebe Barron have the distinction of composing the 1st all electronic soundtrack for this 1956 film.  
I recently used Krell Shuttle from the films soundtrack, on my Test Transmision Archive Reel 2

    Some interesting 50s and 60s sci fi vinyl. In some cases though
    the artwork is more interesting than the music.
