Description: BARBARELLA - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack - PROMO by Bob Ludwig Near Mint Description Offered is an unusual pressing of The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for Barbarella. As described more fully below - this is a rare Monarch Pressing Plant Promo Edition in Stereo, and is an early mastering by the legendary Robert Ludwig. Robert (Bob) Ludwig was to Stereo LP Pressings as Rudy Van Gelder was to the preceeding generation of Mono Pressings. For those familiar with Bob Ludwig's fabulous Mastering Work, his signature "RL" appears in the deadwax matrixes as an identifier. Interestingly, the earliest work of Bob is indicated by a lower case r ("rL") etched into the deadwax matrixes. For his later work, he used the more familiar upper case R ("RL") instead. We have included a photo of this in our Photo Gallery, and listed both of the full deadwax matrixes for Barbarella below. Most of the Promo releases are in Mono, and there are very few of these Stereo Promos available. The LP is in Investment Grade, Near Mint condition. The Cover Art is classic 1960's Psych Rock: The Bob Crewe Generation Orchestra Barbarella (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Label : Dynovoice Records - DY 31908 / Stereo Promo Copy Pressed At The Monarch Pressing Plant Format : 33 1/3 RPM 12" Analog Stereo Vinyl Record & Album Cover Country : U.S. Released : 1968 Genre : Jazz / Rock / Stage & Screen Style : Psychedelic Rock / Original Motion Picture Soundtrack THE VINYL : NEAR MINT NM : This beautiful record is lightly played with minimal evidence of spindlewear (please see close up photos of the labels).
