The soundtrack to a legendary Japanese film by Koreyoshi Kurahara, which at the time of release broke all of the country's cinema records. It follows a number of snow dogs - due to circumstances tragically left behind on a camp at the South Pole - on their survival journey homewards. Most amazingly based on a true story.
For years, the soundtrack album was only available in Japan, popping up in other countries as a rare and expensive import, when in 1988 Polydor finally decided to sell the album also in the rest of the world.
Most of the music has been build around the strong and famous main theme, most prolifically arranged in the first track. Many calm and hypnotic renditions are heard throughout the album, which generally breathes a cold but enchanting atmosphere. The music is brilliantly paced and immediately awakens visions of wide snowy landscapes, mixed with flavors of the heroics of the movie's dog protagonists.
The cover design depends on which pressing of the CD you buy, with the white cover being the most seen throughout the world. But no matter which design you have, the other one is always depicted on the other side of the booklet.
