Home Alone Christmas
Various Artists
With the dream team of producer John Hughes and director Chris Columbus behind them, and boosted by Macaulay Culkin’s star-making turns, the first two Home Alone films rank among the most beloved Christmas movies of the last 30 years if not of all time. And their soundtracks, featuring a pair of scores by the great John Williams and a host of Christmas songs and artists both classic and contemporary, occupy an equally lofty position among holiday-themed movie music collections. But what if you took the best songs from both soundtracks and put them together into one killer Christmas album...and then put it out on festively colored vinyl? Well, that’s what exactly what we have done here with our release of Home Alone Christmas, a 12-track collection that provides the perfect blend of new and “auld” along with no shortage of burglar repellent!
On the contemporary side you get Steve Van Zandt’s tune “All Alone on Christmas” sung by the legendary Darlene Love, the late, great Tom Petty performing his own “Christmas All Over Again” with the Heartbreakers, and such artists as Alan Jackson, Southside Johnny and 20 Feet from Stardom standout Lisa Fischer interpreting various Christmas favorites. On the classic side, there’s the Velvet Fog, Mel Torme, doing his great take on “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.” And overseeing it all is the magisterial John Williams, with three selections highlighted by “Somewhere in My Memory,” the song he wrote with Leslie Bricusse that has become a Christmas standard.
This essential holiday release comes to you in a clear with red and green “Christmas Party” swirl vinyl edition... Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals!

Late Night Tales Presents At The Movies
Various Artists
Music is a powerful trigger of myriad emotions, from the romantic, powerful, disastrous and even heartbreaking. Never is this more plainly evident than with the movie soundtrack. Listen to Lalo Schifrin’s string and brass arrangements on ‘Bullitt’ and we are back in the car with Steve McQueen in an epic chase over the elliptical contours of San Francisco.Flip to Wendy Carlos’ ‘Ode To Joy’ as Alex exclaims: “It was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh,” the violence simmering somewhere close to the surface in Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange.
We’ve collected together some of the classic themes and motifs spanning the past 60 years, from Bernard Hermann’s daring fusion of orthodox orchestration and theremin, Gary Jules’ haunting version of Tears For Fears’ ‘Mad World’, as featured in the hypnotic Donnie Darko, or John Barry’s harmonica-led theme to Schlesinger’s Midnight Cowboy. In the process, we’ve selected a vast range of styles from the jazz and soul-influenced compositions of Roy Budd, Isaac Hayes and Brazil’s Deodato, to electronic pioneers like Giorgio Moroder or leftfield composers like Philip Glass.
So pour yourself that glass of something smooth, relax on the sofa, close your eyes and make believe you’re in a creaking hotel with Jack Nicholson or deep in the fearful sweat of Vietnam with Robert De Niro or a Turkish prison with Brad Davis….
