pictured here is the 2nd hand copy of the tape version of the coveted Starstruck soundtrack which Michele has just ordered me off amazon!! the price would probably cause you to raise an eyebrow, since we speak of a 23 year old 2nd hand audio tape, but i want it i want it i want it!!i am just hoping that it turns up here in a decent enough condition to either transfer to cd, or just to play it.
in the mean time, i have sent info off to my sister in NZ and my good friend Blondie in the USA as to where they can obtain the vinyl record for me, if they are so kind as to amuse my craving. if i end up with numerous copies of it, well, they all seem to have different cover art, and i would be happy to be declared "the king of owning analogue copies of the Starstruck soundtrack".
meanwhile, i cannot for the life of me understand why this has never surfaced on CD. it is a great album (i presume - the music on the film itself is awesome, and it seems to be all on this) featuring some awesome talent. no doubt it is bogged down in copyright matters or something. that said, for it not to appear on the internet, either officially or via (ahem) "independent" means, is rather strange. am i the only one with magpie eyes (or ears) for it? i find it rather difficult to believe that to be the case.
be most excellent to each other!! and if you are still of a party age, behave on New Year's Eve!
