Mike Oldfield's soundtrack for 1979's The Space Movie is to be released as an album for the first time, TeamRock reports.
It's to be launched on October 16, 2015, along with a director's cut edition of the film on a bonus DVD.

Oldfield was brought in by producer Tony Palmer after NASA made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Palmer recalls: "In 1978 I was shown the mountain of film collected from John Glenn. Use whatever I wanted, I was told.

"From the beginning, I wanted Mike to write the music. The soundtrack that emerged is an inspiring match for the images."

Oldfield's soundtrack album is available for pre-order now.

All times are CT (US)
