VARIOUS - True Romance (Original Soundtrack) [Reissue] - LP - 'Alabama Worley' Turquoise Colour Vinyl [JAN 9]

LP - Limited Edition 'Alabama Worley' Turquoise Colour Vinyl (2026 Repress). 

Though it was directed by Tony Scott, the 1993 film True Romance displayed all the signature themes and images of its writer, Quentin Tarantino, from its grisly violence to its B-movie homages to its gleeful amorality. And the same could be said of the soundtrack; alongside composer Hans Zimmer’s riff on Carl Orff (which itself was an homage to another violent road movie, Badlands), True Romance offered a playlist that smacked of Tarantino in its embrace of rockabilly (Charlie Sexton, Chris Isaak), grunge (Soundgarden), honky-tonk (Shelby Lynne), and romantic machismo (Robert Palmer’s take on “[Love Is] The Tender Trap”). Vinyl would seem a natural for such a “warped” soundtrack; and, for this reissue, we’ve crafted a custom jacket sporting production stills from the film. What’s more, this release of True Romance comes in turquoise “Alabama Worley” vinyl in honour of the sartorial hue Patricia Arquette's character favoured in the film! Consider this a colourful homage to one of the greatest cult classic films of all time.
