Step inside the world of Shatter with this definitive Hammer soundtrack release - celebrating the 1974 crime thriller where martial arts collide with the Mob in a high-stakes double-cross. Following a fractious production in Hong Kong in the early '70s - marked by the dismissal of original director Monte Hellman and strained relations between Hammer and Hong Kong's Shaw Brothers studio - Shatter entered post-production under challenging circumstances. In late 1974, David Lindup composed and recorded a suite of music and songs for the film's score, later assembled into a final mix by music supervisor Philip Martell. Much of this work was ultimately obscured in the final film due to the action, heavy sound effects and processing. For the first time, David Lindup's score is presented as originally intended. This 12" LP restores approximately thirty minutes of music, including the main theme, alternate cues, and incidental pieces. Pressed on orange vinyl and produced exclusively as a Limited Collector's Edition, this is essential for library music collectors, film-music connoisseurs and fans of funk music.

1974年のこの犯罪スリラーは、武術とマフィアが激突し、命がけの裏切りが繰り広げられる物語。70年代初頭の香港での制作は、当初の監督モンテ・ヘルマンの解任や、ハマー社と香港のショウ・ブラザーズ・スタジオとの間の関係悪化など、波乱に満ちたものでした。こうした困難な状況下で、『SHATTER』はポストプロダクション段階に入りました。1974年後半、デヴィッド・リンダップは本作のサウンドトラック用に一連の楽曲と歌を作曲・録音し、後に音楽スーパーバイザーのフィリップ・マーテルによって最終ミックスがまとめられました。しかし、アクションシーンや重厚な音響効果、音響処理の影響により、これらの楽曲の多くは完成版映画ではほとんど聴こえなくなってしまいました。
トラックリスト今回初めて、デヴィッド・リンダップのスコアが当初の意図通りにリリースされる。この12インチLPには、メインテーマ、代替キュー、挿入曲など、約30分間の音楽が復元されています。
オレンジ色のヴァイナル盤にプレスされ、限定コレクターズ・エディションとして独占的に制作された本作は、ライブラリー・ミュージックのコレクター、映画音楽の愛好家、そしてファンク・ミュージックのファンにとって必携の一枚である。
