This set may be sold out on Waxwork Records website but it can still be obtained through Amazon and Ebay at this time.

The expansive score (which is available in its entirety for the first time) by composer and conductor Richard Bellis is expertly measured with a range of classic orchestral prompts and haunting electronic music and sound effects created using synthesizers. A few other goodies included with this set are a red balloon with Waxwork Records logo, a postcard with front cover album art and a replica 12X12-inch insert of The Derry News with the headline “All’s Well in Derry!”, so you can create your very own S.S Georgie. The gate also features a spot UV-gloss coating to keep it looking like the day you purchased “IT”. This hair-raising set is pressed on a very fitting 180 gram Red, Blue, and Yellow “Balloon” coloured vinyl with tri-fold gatefold, featuring Pennywise with balloons and folding out to reveal a scrapbook, featuring photos from the film. Gatefolds are covered front to back in illustrious artwork from the King-approved Matt Ryan Tobin. Waxwork Records has built a devoted fan base with not only inventive colour schemes and amazing sound quality, but also the obvious pride they take in packaging their releases. This chilling triple LP set has taken over a year to reach completion as they worked meticulously with Warner Bros., composer Richard Bellis and even King himself.
