Joe Hisaishi: Nausicaa Of The Valley Of Wind - Soundtrack (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP

Original soundtrack to Miyazaki's groundbreaking animated masterpiece, finally reissued. Legendary Japanese composer Joe Hisaishi set the tone for the epic 1984 animated film with sweeping arrangements and touching melodies that perfectly soundtrack Nausicaa's quest to save the valley from a polluted, post-apocalyptic world. Hisaishi based the sounds contained here on the Image Album (and manga) made before production on the animation even started. This limited edition import reissue is housed in a replica of the original 1984 cover, complete with obi and masterful artwork by director Hayao Miyazaki. Recommended.
