UFO TV Series Soundtrack Vinyl 4 LP Set Barry Gray TEST PRESSING Plus Purple Vinyl Gerry Anderson

UFO TV Series Soundtrack Vinyl 4 LP Set Barry Gray TEST PRESSING Plus Purple Vinyl Gerry Anderson:

 This is an ultimately rare version of the LP. There were only 5 of these made in the entire world. They were only available to internal employees of the Milan Record Company for review. This version contains the original 2 Purple Vinyl LPs plus a Black Vinyl test presing of each record making it a 4 LP set. A Test Pressing is one of the first few records pressed from the record masters and are used for review by company officials to listen for any flaws or defects. A test pressing has a plain white label and has the original matrix numbers etched into the vinyl. Test pressings are the first to be pressed and therefor contain the best possible sound quality. This is an amazing collectible and you will not find another one anywhere!!!

 After a decade of creating pioneering puppet series made for children, Gerry & Sylvia Anderson took their first steps into live-action, with the 1969 feature film Doppelganger (re-titled outside Britain as Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun). This science-fiction film approached its outer space subject matter with a gritty realism, and would set the tone for what was to be their first live-action television series: UFO. This new series took as a starting point the pioneering work of Dr Christiaan N. Barnard, the surgeon who performed the world's first heart transplant operation. In UFO a dying race of aliens travel across vast distances of space to harvest organs from human beings to help ensure their own survival. To combat this threat the United Nations created SHADO, a top-secret organisation utilising the latest technology available to defend the Earth. To complement the series, the Andersons frequent musical collaborator Barry Gray created a multifaceted score that gave the programme its own musical identity. Elegantly crafted and a firm favourite with Barry Gray fans, the sound of UFO, particularly its ethereal "World Music" closing credits is, quite simply, a joy. Includes a bonus track, Trampoline performed by The Spencer Davis Group from the episode Ordeal.
