Details: Atco SD-33-214, stereo, tan purple & white label, gatefold cover with photos and a brief interview with Sonny & Cher from Director William Freidkin, released 1967 Condition: Vinyl VG++ (very clean!!) Jacket VG+ (light wear, seams are strong and undamaged, no writing, slick surfaced gatefold cover) This interesting original soundtrack brings together some strange bedfellows. Not only was this the first feature length fill effort from Sonny and Cher, it was also the first feature film directed by William Freidkin - who later became famous as the director of the horror classic THE EXORCIST. Combine these facts with the presence of legendary New Orleans R&B producer Harold Batiste handling the musical arrangements, and you have one odd gumbo of 1960s pop culture! As a bonus, on the inside of the gatefold cover is a cool interview with Sonny and Cher conducted by director William Freidkin. From the All Music Guide:

Quotes: "Louis Maistros has written a lyrical, complex, and brave novel that takes enormous risks and pulls them all off. He is a writer to watch and keep reading, a writer to cherish." "The Society of North American Magic Realists welcomes its newest, most dazzling member, Louis Maistros. His debut novel is a thing of wonder, unlike anything in our literature. It startles. It stuns. It stupefies. No novel since CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES has done such justice to New Orleans. If Franz Kafka had been able to write like Peter Straub, this might have been the result." “The Sound of Building Coffins is easily one of the finest and truest pieces of New Orleans fiction I've ever read.” “One has to write with considerable authenticity to pull off a story steeped in magic and swamp water that examines race and class, death and rebirth, Haitian voodoo, and the beginnings of jazz in 1891 New Orleans...The plot is complex and magical, grounded in the history of the city, without being overly sentimental. There is a comfort with death as a part of life in this work that reveals deep feeling for the city and its past....Highly recommended for all fiction collections, especially where there is an interest in jazz."
