Tadlow Music Presents Thriller 2, composed by Jerry Goldsmith, a Special Collector’s Edition featuring early cult TV scores. Volume 2 features newly recorded suites from six episodes composed by Jerry Goldsmith. This new release is scheduled for April 17, 2018.

THRILLER (also known as BORIS KARLOFF’S THRILLER) is an American anthology television series that aired during the 1960–61 and 1961–62 seasons on NBC. The show featured host Boris Karloff introducing a mix of macabre horror tales and suspense. THRILLER re-runs currently now air on various classic TV networks.

THRILLER was an early milestone in Goldsmith’s career, one of the television steppingstones en route to big-screen fame. Goldsmith would ultimately score 16 episodes of THRILLER (about a third of all those with original music) including some of the scariest and best-remembered hours.
