SEALED
Presented in stereo from original MGM master elements.
Authoritative liner notes from album producer Nick Redman compliment exciting package.
Two soundtracks from one of the great composer/director collaborations. Jerry Fielding gives Sam Peckinpah's BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA colorful below-the-border flavor with dark overtones, mirroring violent tale of American caught up in spiral of murder in Mexico. Haunting guitar over bittersweet harmony mingles with dissonant strings, jagged brass punctuation.
Complete score (38:26) presented in stereo from original MGM master elements. Album also features lengthy suite (31:08) from THE KILLER ELITE.

BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA - Wealthy Mexican Emilio Fernandez puts a bounty on the head of Alfredo Garcia, who has seduced Fernandez' daughter. Trouble is, Alfredo Garcia is already dead and buried. Barkeep Warren Oates and prostitute Isela Vega (whose services had frequently been used by Garcia) travel to the small town in whose cemetery Garcia is interred, planning to dig up the body and recover the head. Attacked by a shadowy Mexican clan, Vega is murdered and Garcia's body is stolen. Now hoping to avenge Vega, Oates joins Fernandez' homosexual henchmen Gig Young and Robert Webber in killing off the Mexican murderers--and when this is done, Oates turns his gun on Young and Webber. He brings the head of Alfredo Garcia to the eager Fernandez, then pulls off one last blood-spattered act of carnage. 1974
THE KILLER ELITE - This second-string Sam Peckinpah action film features James Caan as ex-CIA agent Mike Locken, who has retired due to injuries received at the hands of his ex-partner George Hansen (Robert Duvall). But Mike is lured out of retirement to protect Yuen Chung (Mako), an Asian political leader. There's a contract out on Yuen Chung's life -- and the killer assigned to rub out Yuen Chung is none other than Mike's former partner, George Hansen. The confrontation between the two leads to a showdown on a decaying naval vessel between Mike's forces and a group of ninja warriors. 1975
