The Omen OST (Reissue)

The Omen was a special project for composer Jerry Goldsmith because it was the only time he won an Oscar in his long career, for Best Original Score. He was also nominated for Best Original Song, for Ave Satani - his chilling Black Mass that inverted the Latin Mass into a dark, chilling paean to the Devil.

The score is one of Goldsmith's best: not just the Ave Satani chants, but the way he incorporates them into his modernist, thrilling action music in tracks like The Killer Storm, The Demise of Mrs. Baylock and The Dogs Attack.

But Goldsmith was always attuned to the human warmth behind the chills and thrills - and the score features hopeful, loving moments for the ambassador's family, including a song version of the love theme, The Piper Dreams, with lyrics and vocals by the composer's wife, Carol.

This special LP reissue of The Omen features the original 12-track 1976 soundtrack album on red vinyl with black splatter.
