The Muppet Movie - Original Soundtrack

Description

It is an absolute dream come true for iam8bit to collaborate with the Muppets Studio and Walt Disney Records to release on vinyl this fully remastered edition of the original soundtrack from the first Muppet movie. More than 40 years after its original release in 1979, we dug behind the scenes of the Muppet Theatre to dust off timeless recordings such as the Oscar-nominated "Rainbow Connection" and the travel ditty "Movin' Right Along," sparing no detail to give this album the treatment it deserves. The music of legends Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher is undeniably excellent, charming in its love of lyricism, with perfectly honed harmonies and arrangements. These are the songs that propelled the Muppets from TV stars to rockstars, with outstanding performances by Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, the Electric Mayhem (with Animal on drums), and many more. Even Statler and Waldorf would approve of the exceptional album artwork by Kevin Wilson, who approached this project not as a simple commission, but as a lifelong Muppet obsession.- Featuring timeless classics like "Rainbow Connection" and "Movin' Right Along".- Soundtrack on Miss Piggy pink vinyl- Album artwork by Kevin Wilson- Music by Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher- Mastered for vinyl by Dave Gardner
