If you’re a fan of David Lynch and David Lynch-related music on vinyl, 2015 is basically the year all your dreams will come true. Because — drum roll, plz — in addition to the many Sacred Bones releases/reissues that have been poppin’ off lately, you can now play the Blue Velvet score/soundtrack on a delicious, crackly blue (duh) vinyl record.
This LP is being reissued on wax for the first time in 30 years or so, and the good people at Varèse Sarabande are the ones behind the project. Blue Velvet and its accompanying Angelo Badalamenti score/soundtrack first came out in 1986. In 1990, it got reissued again, and in 1991 Brazilian label Estúdio Eldorado put it on vinyl, the only time UNTIL NOW it has been on vinyl.
The soundtrack marks the first time Lynch worked with Angelo Badalamenti and Julee Cruise. The Varèse Sarabande reissue is limited to 1,000 glorious limited-edition copies.
