BONUS STUFF! Although we cram more into our liner books than practically anyone, there is a limit to how much we can squeeze into them, regardless of how small a font we use. Therefore, a lot of information about the music we’ve recorded and some fun photos couldn’t be included in the books. We’ll be putting a lot of that material up here from time-to-time, including some humor we were too embarrassed to have in print.
Hear the music that Ron Goodwin (probably) wrote for the circus wagon in the early version of The Day of the Triffids! This music cannot be heard anywhere else!

When Monstrous Movie Music was forming as a label in the mid-nineties and needed a memorable logo, many ideas were tossed around before we made our final decision.
Knowing at the time that the 50th anniversary of the Roswell Incident was rapidly approaching, our Art Department came up with this alternate logo that was supposed to appeal to the “ET” crowd. Wisely, we rejected it.
What’s the whole truth on those partial cue titles like “Kay And The Monster, Part 1,” “Tony Visits Port Royale, Part 2,” and “Monster Gets Mark, Part 1?”

Which is correct? Gill-Man, Gill-man, Gill Man, or Gillman?
For our Mighty Joe Young CD, special effects artist Ray Harryhausen (who worked on the 1949 film), was kind enough to go into a recording studio and clash some cymbals for us, which we later overdubbed into the movie’s cue, “Beautiful Dreamer.” To hear a sample of Ray’s contributions, click below: |
