The score Hayao Miyazaki envisioned for his 1992 film Porco Rosso finds its definitive home on vinyl. Hisaishi composed this album as a standalone tone poem, drawing from Miyazaki's original cartoon serial Hikotei Jidai and his handwritten music notes to evoke Italy of the late 1920s. This Japanese import presents 10 tracks with new mastering and new jacket artwork, pressed on a format that honors the weight and warmth of its source material. Includes single jacket, OBI strip, and insert.
An encapsulated copy is the only way to own this pressing exactly as it left the source: the OBI strip intact, the insert unfolded, the sleeve untouched. For a first-pressing import with new artwork commissioned specifically for this release, that original state is irreplaceable.
