Barry Gray’s soundtrack LP to the 1962 series “Fireball XL5” from Gerry and Sylvia Anderson will be released on vinyl early in 2021 on Silva Screen Records, the next in a series of Anderson releases which has so far featured UFO, Supercar and Thunderbirds.
Fireball XL5 was set in 2062 and followed the exploits of the eponymous spaceship commanded by Colonel Steve Zodiac of the World Space Patrol. It was produced, like most other Anderson productions, in Supermarionation, using puppetry techniques that captured the imagination of a generation. Composer Barry Gray collaborated with the Andersons on all the Supermarionation series, his jazzy style supplemented by the use of an electronically augmented keyboard, the Ondes Martenot, creating the other-worldly atmosphere which became synonymous with the sci-fi series.

LP盤。幻のジェリー・アンダーソン作品! マリオネーションとライブアクションを融合した斬新なスパイ・シリーズ「ロンドン指令Ｘ」のオリジナル・サウンドトラックがついに一般発売！
トラックリストジェリー・アンダーソン制作のスーパーマリオネーション。前作「ジョー90」と同様スパイものである。本作で「スーパーカー」から続く、一連のスーパーマリオネーション作品はいったん終了し、以後「謎の円盤UFO」などのライブアクションに移行することとなるが、本作はマリオネーションとライブアクションとの融合を目指した意欲作で、神父の顔や手のアップは人形ではなく俳優スタンレー・アンウィン自身の映像が使われているといった、まさにライブアクション作品への橋渡し的存在となった。 1969年イギリス。
