Here's a Record Store Day find that I didn't have written down on my list before the event, but I saw this in the shop and just had to grab a copy. It's a 7" record playing at 45rpm recorded in mono and with six tracks on it. Some would call it an EP, but these tracks are so short that the combined length of the record is less than most singles. That is to say, there's nothing "extended" about it.
The record contains the themes for 1960s ITC produced cult classic TV shows, Man In A Suitcase, The Saint, Danger Man and The Prisoner from legendary composers Ron Grainer and Edwin Astley. The first two tracks on each side of the record are quite short at about 20 seconds a piece, with the third title on each side being a longer piece and all the more satisfying for the listener. Quite frankly, the music for Patrick McGoohan's masterpiece The Prisoner is worth the record price alone.
Fantastic stuff!
