Limited double 180gm colored vinyl LP pressing. Artwork by Phantom City Creative. Music restored, mixed, edited and mastered by Mike Matessino. One of the finest achievements in film music and quite possibly the most iconic score of all time, John Williams' score to Jaws is absolutely essential for soundtrack collectors. While the Grammy-winning 1975 MCA album was a re-recording, this vinyl set presents the entire Academy Award-winning score as composed and recorded for the actual film in it's first-ever vinyl release. Album co-producer Mike Matessino restored, edited and mixed the music from the original studio elements for the best possible quality, approved by the composer himself. John Williams won a much-deserved Oscar for his work on Jaws, with a score that not only manages to accentuate the terror of the onscreen action without resorting to cheap stingers, but also layers in beautifully understated cues to offset the horror with much needed relief. Quiet and calm one minute, then ratcheting up the tension with screaming strings the next when the great white attacks.
