Too bad they didn't use the Mad Mad Mad World styled artwork for the cover. That cover artwork says more about the film than the original artwork.

 

Score's fantastic though.

A wonderful archival edition to have - what a scoring year for him. There's a metascore feeling to it, with echoes of existing repertoire and hints of things to come. I listened to the intense early act of the score before referring to the notes or revisiting any material on the film, it works without getting specific on subject as Jerry's style works its own narrative magic. Somewhat reductive from what I might've expected in this period though brilliantly so and also among his most dynamic including Alien.

So this is what the booklet tells us about this whole MQA thing:

 

Quote

LIsteners without the MQA decoder will enjoy these discs as 44.1kHz/16-bit digital, the CD standard, while those with the MQA decoder will get to hear the music in high resolution. all the way up to 176.4kHz/24-bit, from the same Compact Disc!
