    This/ the Monarch Pressing is far superior in quality than the SONIC Records Pressing. Same thing on the Truck Turner Soundtrack. Only go for a Monarch Pressing. SONIC had poor quality control and the LP's were pressed with surface noise and usually warped/ bowled. Trust me on this as I have done my homework and been a fan/ collector of these two soundtracks since their initial releases in 1974.

      It's so much better when he doesn't sing! Much better arranger and writer.

          The track "Run Fay Run" is perfect to put on your iPod mini if your name is Fay, and you suddenly need to hastily escape from an out-of-control lunatic.

            It's cool record, but sounds very flat, it's hard to distinguish each instrument.
