New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Dennis Hopper's 'The Last Movie' OST -
Various Artists
Limited edition yellow vinyl gatefold sleeve includes rare vintage photos and detailed liner notes
After the incredible success of the film Easy Rider,
Dennis Hopper was given complete freedom to direct and star in the bizarre, surrealist The Last Movie - released in 1971. Filmed in a drug fuelled haze in Peru with Hopper,
Peter Fonda, Kris Kristofferson, Dean Stockwell, Michelle Phillips, Russ Tamblyn, and Samuel Fuller - there has never been a soundtrack to this film until now!
Featuring the first ever performances of Kristofferson's legendary "Me and
Bobby McGee" plus sublime country-folk songs from John Buck Wilkin, Peruvian folk & dance music - all recorded live on set in Peru - nothing was overdubbed. Plus, provocative movie dialogue from
Dennis Hopper, Sam Fuller and others.
'The Last Movie' recordings are being released for the first time ever in any audio format - taken from the original movie reels.
