Hellgate and Lost Continent [MMM-1972] presents the first film music album by the great Paul Dunlap, who is best known for his horror and sci-fi scores of the 1950s. Hellgate is a fabulous 1952 Lippert western, with a fine cast that includes Sterling Hayden, Joan Leslie, Ward Bond, and James Arness. Everyone involved in this film rose to the occasion, and that included the composer, who wrote a powerhouse score capturing the drama and romance of this very moving post-Civil War tale. About 35 minutes of the soundtrack survived on acetate recordings, and it’s an excellent introduction to Dunlap’s artistry, as it covers a wide range of of the prodigious composer's talents.
As a bonus, we have included the 27 minutes of music that still exists from the classic 1951 Lippert dinosaur picture, Lost Continent. One of the composer’s best scores, the music offers fury and wonder in this tale of a search for a wayward atomic rocket. Newly transferred and restored from the composer’s personal recordings, this archival release is a fitting introduction to Dunlap’s incredible musical ability. The 20-page illustrated liner book details the music, the composer, and the movies.

トラックリスト『燃える大陸』・・・アメリカ空軍の原子ロケット“ネプチューン号”が試験飛行中、南太平洋上で行方不明になる。ノーラン少佐(C・ロメロ)をリーダーとする捜索隊が輸送機で南太平洋上に向かうが、ネプチューン号が姿を消したと思われる地点で突如、機は操縦の自由を失い、孤島のジャングルに不時着。現地民の話からネプチューン号が島の聖地として恐れられている高台に墜落したことを知った一行は、飛行記録を回収すべく、その高台に足を踏み入れる。そこは不気味な原始植物が密生し、太古の恐竜が生息する“失われた大陸”で、地下には無尽蔵のウラン鉱脈が眠っていた。監督：サム・ニューフィールド、出演：シーザー・ロメロ、ヒラリー・ブルック。1951年米。
