LEE HAZLEWOOD 'A House Safe For Tigers' LP (US, Light In The Attic, Catalogue #LITA 087) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited year 2012 Light In The Attic label LP edition presenting a first time ever domestic US pressing of the very rare 1975 Swedish Original Soundtrack album by Lee Hazlewood entitled A House Safe For Tigers. Originally released only in Sweden in 1975 on the CBS label.
(NOTE: LIMITED VINYL EDITION!)
"A House Safe For Tigers is the soundtrack to one of the seven TV movies Lee Hazlewood made with the director Torbjörn Axelman during his period living in Sweden in the early 1970s. Hazlewood had moved there to lay low and to help his son avoid the draft, but wound up finding happiness and creative freedom. Many of the albums recorded in Sweden made their way no further than Scandinavia, but of them all, A House Safe For Tigers is the holy grail for collectors, often changing hands for hundreds of dollars. Originally only available in Sweden, this marks the first time Tigers has been reissued and available the world over. The movie was a 'semi-documentary' featuring Hazlewood and his friend Axelman, looking back to childhood and contemplating the meaning of life. In it, Hazlewood runs a marathon, tells anecdotes about a bum who cured his stutter and convinces a group of Swedish children to take sides against Richard Nixon. 'It's strange, very strange,' Hazlewood said, 'But we meant it to be strange. It's not necessary to see A House Safe For Tigers to enjoy the soundtrack, of course. Despite the fact that it was never released outside of Sweden, the music's hallowed reputation -- cultivated in the intervening decades by the privileged few who were able to hear it -- is testament to the strength of its material. First ever reissue. Re-mastered from original master tapes. Includes new liner notes by Wyndham Wallace, interviewing director Torbjörn Axelman."
