"The Fearless Vampire Killers" soundtrack?
This Roman Polanski film contains one of the best horror film scores ever written. It's by Krzysztof Komeda and anybody who has seen (and heard) the film knows it's absolutely amazing.
Sadly, I can't find this on CD anywhere. Could it actually be that the score hasn't been released separately at all? That wouldn't make any sense considering how good this score is - why wouldn't MGM be anything but tremendously proud of it?
Anyway, any info on this?

OK, I'll just answer my own question... some searching on the net produced the following info:
Apparently, the soundtrack has only been released in Germany, where the film is held in high regard (I know, I've lived there). It's available at www.amazon.de and for only $17 € to boot. The disc also contains the "Rosemary's Baby" soundtrack, and since all the music was taken from Komeda's personal archives, the disc contains previously unreleased tracks.
