Album US 1970 on Custom Fidelity label
Electronic and Soundtrack (Soundtrack)
Front cover: 'The first completely electronically scored motion picture! Experience sounds and sensations you never have before'. Custom Fidelity subtly altered the rainbow art color scheme of their record label during mid-pressings of this record as indicated in the above images, though it is not known which pressings were days or weeks earlier (as production was very low) and each versions matrix runout and label numbering remained identical. Original 1970 release. This movie and album was released December 16, 1970 in Seattle and filmed mainly on Lopez Island in the San Juan Islands chain and University of Washington campus during the Summer of '70. This album soundtrack was available exclusively in the theater lobbies (not sold in stores), and had a very low production. This film played briefly at local Seattle theaters and then disappeared. It was released on video in '83. Composer/keyboardist Mort Garson (Modular Moog) and Tom Muncrief (vocals) are not credited on the record cover or labels, including other credits added above. Tom Muncrief was the vocalist in The Beckett Quintet (a garage band from Portales, New Mexico). The individual compositions were written mainly for the film with several from Mort's unused 60's sound library. Two tracks are excerpts of songs which appeared on two of Mort's later albums 'The Unexplained' (1975) and 'Black Mass' (1971) while the rest of the soundtrack is mostly melodic, dreamy and psychedelic.
