Paul Williams | Phantom of the Paradise (Soundtrack) | Album

The Phantom of the Paradise Original Soundtrack (1974), written and composed by Paul Williams for Brian De Palma’s cult-classic horror-satire, is a theatrical, multi-genre masterclass in music industry parody. While critical reception remains divided on how well the album holds up as a standalone listen outside the context of the film, the soundtrack earned Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations and stands as a defining monument of glam-rock excess.
