The Hills Have Eyes is a 1977 American horror film written, directed, and edited by Wes Craven. The film follows the Carters, a suburban family targeted by a family of cannibal savages after becoming stranded in the Nevada desert. Made for only $230,000, the film has spawned may sequels and remakes and has gone o to become a cult classic.
Composer Don Peake has recently revisited his score and this vinyl release presents the newly discovered and remastered original tapes from the film.
He remembers his work on the score and how this remarkable soundtrack was created -
"I was immediately struck with the brutality of the characters, and I decided to create a sparse, and disturbing score utilizing both acoustic instruments and a few experimental electronic instruments. I used "The Blaster Beam" - a long aluminium channel (About 10 feet) strung with a single wire. The Player (Craig Huxley) would slide a piece of steel up the wire string creating a long Glissando. I also had the prop master deliver the bone necklaces that the actors wore in the movie to the scoring stage. I used these bones as shakers for the chase scenes. The percussionists each had a necklace to play. We recorded all the music "Live" with absolutely no overdubs. The tapes had been lost for many years. I just recently came upon them in my storage. I had my friend Ron Hitchcock "bake" the tapes for 10 hours, and then transferred them into the Pro Tools digital format. This is the very first time that this music has been available to listen to."

『サランドラ』は1977年のアメリカ製ホラー映画で、ウェス・クレイヴンが脚本・監督・編集を手掛けた。ネバダ砂漠で立ち往生した郊外に住むカーター一家が、人肉を食らう野蛮な一族に狙われる物語である。わずか23万ドルの製作費ながら、数多くの続編やリメイクを生み出し、カルト的な名作となった。
トラックリスト作曲家ドン・ピークは近年、自身のスコアを再検証。本作のヴァイナル盤では、新たに発見されリマスターされたオリジナル・テープ音源を収録しています。
彼はスコア制作当時の記憶と、この傑出したサウンドトラックが生まれた経緯をこう振り返る―
“登場人物たちの残忍さに直ちに衝撃を受け、アコースティック楽器と数台の実験的な電子楽器を併用した、簡素で不気味な音楽を創作することを決意した。使用した「ブラスタービーム」とは、単一のワイヤーが張られた長いアルミ製チャンネル（約3メートル）である。演奏者（クレイグ・ハクスリー）がワイヤー弦に沿って鋼鉄片を滑らせ、長いグリッサンドを生み出す。また、小道具担当者に映画で俳優が着用した骨のネックレスを録音スタジオへ届けてもらった。これらの骨を追いかけシーン用のシェイカーとして使用した。打楽器奏者それぞれが演奏用のネックレスを所持していた。
全楽曲をオーバーダブ一切なしの「ライブ録音」で収録した。テープは長年行方不明となっていたが、つい最近、私の保管庫で発見した。友人のロン・ヒッチコックに10時間テープを“焼いてもらい”、それをPro Toolsのデジタルフォーマットに変換しました。この音楽が聴けるようになったのは、これが初めてのことです。”

ドンは、フィル・スペクターのライチャス・ブラザーズのヒット曲「You've Lost That Loving Feeling」、アイク＆ティナ・ターナーの「River Deep, Mountain High」、ジャクソン・ファイブのヒット曲「ABC」などでギターを演奏しました。
彼は、ロイ・オービソン、モンキーズ、ウェイン・ニュートン、マーヴィン・ゲイ、バリー・ホワイト、ソニー＆シェール、ジョン・レノン、ビーチ・ボーイズ、ダイアナ・ロスなど、数多くのアーティストのアレンジャーとして活動しました。
