A
real oddity – a soundtrack on Vee Jay records, the label best known
for their groundbreaking work in
soul, blues, and jazz. Even stranger, the score is
for a schlocky Vincent Price film, based on a Jules Verne story – written by Les Baxter, in the flowery style he used
for some of his late 50s, non-exotic work at Capitol. The album is performed by the 100 Men, directed by Cal Carter of Vee Jay – and titles include "Topage", "Flight Concerto", "Philadelphia", "Drifting Clouds", and "Over The Rocks". Nice painted cover, too!
