DAVID ROSE & His Orchestra. Forbidden Planet 1956

I had a 45-size copy of this. I think it was meant to be played at 33 rpm.

I think I had a 45-size copy of this, but without most of the sound effects. I think it was meant to be played at 33 rpm.

I had this on a 33 1/3 rpm stereo album of David Rose selections in the late 1960's.

Trivia: In the mid 1960's, WAVY TV in Virginia used this same theme music for the opening of a weekday afternoon movie program called "Tronic Theater", hosted by a gentleman and his robot. The robot looked exactly like Robbie the Robot in the film "Forbidden Planet", The show aired five days a week with the same theme music.

Sry i need to correct myself.

I meant to say was the cue that is playing here included on the general release soundtrack?

[m0neymizzle]

Was there ever a general release soundtrack to this Film?

Also i am curious to know if you where in the industry at any point?

Hi m0neymizzle,

NickinMesa left this informative message. This was to be the soundtrack until they found 2 guys who played early forms of synthesizers and they fired David Rose. ..Sounds crazy as David Rose has done a brilliant spacey well fitting piece for this film with synth sounds added in. Apart from this release on 78 and 45 I have never seen or known of any soundtrack Ep or Lp to Forbidden Planet.

The official soundtrack LP album to the movie was produced by Louis and Bebe Barron. It's available on CD.
