The Holy Mountain (Original Soundtrack) [Import]

• Track Listing

The original soundtrack to Chilean-born film-maker Alejandro Jodorowsky's 1973 masterpiece THE HOLY MOUNTAIN. When Jodorowsky wanted, in his words, 'another kind of music - something that wasn't entertainment, something that wasn't a show, something that went to the soul, something profound,' for the soundtrack to THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, forward came Jazz Legend Don Cherry and Crack Studio musician (and one-time Archie) Ron Frangipane to share composing and (along with Jodorowsky) conducting duties. And, boy, did they deliver - the score to THE HOLY MOUNTAIN is every bit as hallucinatory as the fantastic visual imagery in the film itself. Every one of the 24 tracks on the film's soundtrack presents another vertiginous twist in the philosophical and spiritual journey that is THE HOLY MOUNTAIN. Japanese pressing. P-Vine. 2015.
