Available on Vinyl for the First Time! Limited Edition 180g Double Vinyl!

For the very first time ever on limited edition vinyl, I Am Shark will be  releasing the original soundtrack to Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace,  scored by legendary composer John Williams and performed by the London Symphony  Orchestra. "Once again, John Williams has exceeded my expectations and  produced a lavish, rich, moving and thrilling score. Every fan of Star Wars--  and of great music-- is in his debt," said George Lucas.

The original album was released to accompany the film (May 4, 1999). This  release was certified Platinum in the U.S. and Gold in the UK, containing 17  tracks from selections of the score, meant to stand alone as a separate  listening experience and not as one hears the score in the film. John Williams  edited each track to present the score as one would hear it in a concert suite.  Recorded in Abbey Road studios over a week, starting on February 10, 1999  performed by the London Voices and London Symphony Orchestra, Star Wars Episode  I: The Phantom Menace was the first Star Wars score Williams had composed in  over 16 years. The scores of the following two films would rely heavily upon  tracking from this score, a decision that Williams and George Lucas had made  early into production of the film.
