The Empire Strikes Back - Symphonic Suite from the Original Motion Picture Score - LP

180-Gram Red Colored Vinyl, Gatefold Jacket

Originally released in 1980 to supplement — not compete with — the 2-LP motion picture soundtrack, this single-LP release skillfully combines the "Symphonic Suite" John Williams created for concert performance with new arrangements of other cues from The Empire Strikes Back. The gatefold jacket features the iconic Star Wars paintings by William Stout, images of John Williams, and notes from Ray Bradbury, Christopher Palmer, and the maestro himself. Out of print since its original 1980 pressing.
