From the Harry Saltzman-Don Kirshner Film “Toomorrow”: Limited Edition Purple Vinyl LP Original Soundtrack

Please note the packshot is a mock up based on the description from the distributor, the actual vinyl colour may vary

Long before she was Sandy, the good girl of Rydell High, or Kira, the Olympian muse of the roller disco Xanadu,
Olivia Newton-John was just plain Livvy, the girl singer with dreams of the big time in the 1970 sci-fi movie
musical Toomorrow. This little-known motion picture was the brainchild of music impresario Don Kirshner
and Harry Saltzman, best known for co-producing the first nine James Bond films with Albert R. Broccoli.
And Toomorrow wasn’t just the movie’s title. After a lengthy talent search, Kirshner and Saltzman assembled
the band Toomorrow, whom the music mogul modestly described as “the best-looking total group that ever
existed.” Why the misspelling? As drummer Karl Chambers put it
in the film itself, “I dig it! We’re too much, we’re too morrow!” At
least Kirshner thought so—he had visions of Toomorrow achieving
the success of his previous creations the Monkees and the Archies,
and enlisted the aid of songwriters Mark Barkan and Richie Adams
(along with composer Hugo Montenegro) for the movie’s bubblegummeets-
rock tunes. But, weighed down by legal problems surrounding
Saltzman, and a premise—Toomorrow was going to save a race of
aliens called the Alphoids from an existence-threatening “sterility of
sound”—that was silly even by late-‘60s B-movie standards, the
movie went nowhere. The soundtrack, however, boasting the nascent
superstar Newton-John, has attained serious cult status over the years,
with the original record commanding prices that are truly from outer
space. Our Real Gone release marks its first LP reissue, pressed in
purple vinyl and featuring notes by Joe Marchese. Like the cover says,
“Launch out on a musical cosmic trip with the new ‘Toomorrow’!”
