Small screen, big sound: the epic story of TV series music on vinyl

Where it all began: when television pressed records

The history of TV series soundtracks on vinyl dates back to the 1960s, a time when theme songs began to transcend mere background accompaniment. In 1966, Lalo Schifrin composed the iconic Mission: Impossible theme, a piece of jazz in 5/4 time that became an absolute standard. Soon after, the scores for Star Trek (Alexander Courage), The Avengers (Laurie Johnson), Hawaii Five-0 (Morton Stevens), and France's Les Brigades du Tigre (Claude Bolling) were flying off record store shelves. These original pressings, often released in mono or stereo by labels like RCA Victor, Columbia, Philips, and Barclay, are now the holy grail for serious collectors.

From Twin Peaks to Stranger Things: the collector's renaissance

After a lull in the 1990s and 2000s, the TV soundtrack on vinyl has made a spectacular comeback, driven by nostalgia and a taste for beautifully crafted editions. Angelo Badalamenti's score for Twin Peaks (1990) remains an unmatched benchmark, regularly reissued on colored vinyl by Death Waltz and Mondo. Labels like Waxwork Records (The Twilight Zone, Stranger Things), Mondo (Lost, The Last of Us), Silva Screen (Doctor Who, Game of Thrones), and Invada (Breaking Bad, Hannibal) compete with ever more creative variants, marbled pressings, gatefold sleeves, and illustrated booklets. To track down these limited editions at the best price, a comparison tool like Vinyles.com lets you weigh offers from multiple specialist retailers in a single glance, without having to scour each shop individually.
