It's amazing what movie studios would come up with to promote their films. This odd gem, sold at auction, was a recording of the kooky theme song from THE GREEN SLIME. The record had a "Not For Sale" notice on the label, so it may have been distributed for free at select theaters.
Following is the description from the auction house:
The Green Slime (MGM, 1969). Promo 45 Record. Science Fiction.
A special disc jockey record featuring music by Richard Delvy from the motion picture The Green Slime. One side features the song "The Green Slime," the other features "From Beyond the Stars." Starring Robert Horton, Luciana Paluzzi, Richard Jaeckel, Bud Widom, Ted Gunther, David Yorston, Robert Dunham, Gary Randolf, Jack Morris, Linda Hardisty, Kathy Horan, Ann Ault, Linda Miller, Patricia Elliott, and Tom Scott. Directed by Kinji Fukasaku. An unrestored 45 record with bright color and a clean overall appearance. Very Fine-.
Sold for $74.00 in 2012.
There's a copy on eBay right now, only the seller wants $384 for it.
