180 Gram Vinyl! First 1000 Copies Numbered & Pressed on Yucky Slime Green Vinyl! The 1935 Film Music!
Ever since the classic Horror movie genre was at its peak during the pre-WWII era, Mary Shelley's The Bride Of Frankenstein (1935) starring Boris Karloff still remains the true cream of the crop. The black and white movie, directed by James Whale, is a prime example of how suspense meets great storytelling, the film's thriller elements making it a benchmark for many film directors.
Its score was written by Franz Waxman, the legendary German-American classic composer with an impressive number of Academy Award Nominations movies to his name. Waxman wrote engaging soundtracks for classic films such as Rebecca (1940), Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde (1941), Sunset Boulevard (1950), The Nun's Story (1959) and many more.
Franz Waxman's The Bride Of Frankenstein OST on vinyl for the first time ever! First pressing available as 1000 hand numbered copies on slime green vinyl.
"With its strange, sweeping yet disquieting melodies and unusual timbres, it was some of the most ambitious music ever written for the screen -- indeed, if Max Steiner's score to King Kong made that movie into a 'symphony accompanied by a motion picture,' in the words of composer-pianist Oscar Levant, then Waxman's music for The Bride of Frankenstein gave that movie the impact and sweep of a Wagnerian opera (although the finale recalls the Mahler 'Symphony No. 2')." - Bruce Eder, allmusic.com
