The record


Title: Johnny Mandel - MAS*H (Original Soundtrack Recording)
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1970, Soundtrack, Black Comedy Film Score, New York, New York 6/26
Matrix #: N/A
Condition: VG+ (LM) | Members: Johnny M (25' - 20')
Cultural Facts:

  1. Personal Struggle: The film used a Korean War field hospital to show surgeons coping with death through booze, sex, jokes, and emotional numbness.

  2. Studio Lore: “Suicide Is Painless” had lyrics by director Robert Altman’s teenage son Mike, who later earned serious royalties from the song.

  3. Media Narrative: The soundtrack helped sell MAS*H as anti-war comedy, turning battlefield trauma into something bitter, funny, and hard to file cleanly.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
