Various - Morning Of The Earth (Original Film Soundtrack) mp3 album

Very few soundtrack recordings give themselves to anything more than a passing link to the film as I guess a movie soundtrack should. Morning Of The Earth defies that definition! it cleverly assembles (in that era) Australia's finest musicians and makes a group statement through the music of a land that existed once where you could grab a change of shorts a board and a couple of casettes in the panel van and head on up the coast!

I was fortunate to pick up a copy of this film a couple of years back..Probably bootlegged and a rare underground copy of a copy but who cares because it's such a great film! And I don't even surf!..With this film it made me realize that surfing isn't just a sport, a fashionable life style BUT a way of life.Soon as I had watched the film I was straight on discogs to see if I could get a copy? Nope!I then went on the filmmakers website (or was it a website just dedicated to the film maker?) and found 2 copies for sale.But the prices for such an unusual LP were unfortunately sky high £££ three figures!It's not until now that I have finally got a copy!Superb sound!But you must watch the film to appreciate the tunes as they fade gently into the background as every soundtrack should.The soundtrack and film can not exist individually!They have to be together.Peace ;)I love this LP!Obviously G. Wayne Thomas Morning Of The Earth is the star of the show but As a lover of funk rock with jazz this track rocks it!Taman Shud* - Sea The Swells..I really love this! The bass perfectly fits the waves and the surfer, surfin' them mannnnn! ;)

And being enjoyed by a new generation. It's because the films maker (my friend) has his heart in the right place

Yes! The new generation must see the film with the soundtrack first..And not the other way around! ..;)

Awesome awesome record the quintessential feel good early 70's hippie surf album ... takes me back to much freer times
