If you had this soundtrack on 8-track, you really missed out. The 2 LP set came with this 22" x 33" poster featuring a drawing of the Lonely Hearts Club Band riding/lounging/posing on an oversized tuba-ish instrument with strawberries in its bell. LHCB in the sky with berries.
Soundtrack ad from the August 24, 1978 edition of Rolling Stone:
"The Poseidon Adventure" & "Towering Inferno" had nothing on the 'Sarge'... Stigwood & RSO set the template for disaster films without ever realizing it. Just a shame they never put as much thought into the movie itself, as they did the elaborate soundtrack packaging.
ReplyDeleteDave Marsh on its double platinum success: "P.T. Barnum was right and euthanasia may have untapped possibilities."
