Walter Murphy "Themes from E.T. and More"

The rare 1982 record album, with disco-pop renditions of blockbuster movie themes. Arranged & conducted by Walter Murphy, ("A Fifth of Beethoven" & "Family Guy" fame) this album has unfortunately never been released digitally, but I've transferred my record as cleanly as possible for this presentation. Enjoy!

00:00 Theme from E.T. The Extra Terrestrial
03:47 Theme from Close Encounters of the Third Kind
07:49 Theme from Jaws
12:41 Theme from Star Trek
16:17 Theme from Raiders of the Lost Ark
19:32 Theme from Superman the Movie
23:30 Theme from Poltergeist (Carol Anne's Theme)

Thank you for uploading this music. I am a movie music fan in both their original and disco versions. You did a very impressive job cleaning up the tracks of the LP vinyl. I lost my ET 45rpm a long time ago. I really like your work and your graphics are awesome.

I love this album!!! I own the LP, but have been struggling to find the cd version for ages! Does anyone how to get the cd?

[VWVVWVVWV]

@isdiazfr There is no CD.

It pains me to admit that I own this record, which I actually bought in 1982 when I was 12. Needless to say, I didn't have many friends! LOL

[VWVVWVVWV]

@dalastar3 Then you & I are of a kind.

This is a great album.  I always knew of Meco and his music of Star Wars, Star Trek, Wizard Of Oz, etc. but this is so much better! It is done just like the original but with a disco beat, just like when Walter Murphey did Fifth Of Beethoven! And the sound quality is excelllent!! Thanks for the uplaod!!!!!
