Album (Land of the Lost)

Album refers to the 1973 soundtrack album from the Saturday morning children's television program Land of the Lost. The album, titled simply "Land of the Lost," was released by Decca Records (catalog number DL 7-5446). It features dialogue excerpts from the show intermixed with original music composed by William Loose and John Hanlen. The album sought to capitalize on the popularity of the show, allowing fans to relive key plot points and character interactions outside of the visual medium. The dialogue segments are carefully selected to advance a loose narrative that connects the musical cues. The music itself is largely instrumental and features the distinctive synthesizer soundscapes and percussion associated with the program's depiction of the prehistoric world. The album's cover art replicates the visual style of the show, depicting the Marshall family and Grumpy the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
