Description

Date Of Arrival : Dec 2017

A new 40th anniversary set for the Star Wars: A New Hope soundtrack. The 3xLP set is on 180-gram wax, comes packaged in a “Hard cover faux leather wrapped book” and with “a bound 48 page book with images of the recording sessions, scenes of the film, and conceptual art.”

It states that the music is remastered (doesn’t seem like a new remaster). The set follows in the Force Awakens mold of having a hologram, hand-etched by Tristan Duke. It’s a hologram of the death star on disc 3, side A, and the 40th anniversary logo on side B.

For optimal viewing, use a direct light source or simply hold a mobile phone flashlight above the vinyl to view the hologram. Side B features the Star Wars 40th Anniversary logo etched into the vinyl.
