1986 released on the Geffen Records label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch2 class=\"product-about-heading\"\u003eAbout this album\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eLittle Shop Of Horrors is a gleefully twisted soundtrack-musical that helped turn a stage oddity into a lasting cult favourite. Alan Menken’s tuneful, Motown-leaning score and Howard Ashman’s comic, sharply observed lyrics give the songs real theatrical bite, from the rueful Skid Row (Downtown) to the showstopping Suddenly, Seymour. Released in 1986 alongside Frank Oz’s film adaptation, the music keeps the original off-Broadway spirit intact while expanding its reach for a wider audience. Its blend of horror, humour and classic musical craft made it one of the most distinctive screen musicals of the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Howard Ashman, Alan Menken\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Geffen Records – GHS 24125\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album, Stereo\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_us\"\u003eUS\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1986\"\u003e1986\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/soundtrack-vinyl-records\"\u003eSoundtracks\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/soundtrack\"\u003eSoundtrack\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Prologue+(Little+Shop+Of+Horrors)\"\u003ePrologue (Little Shop Of Horrors)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Skid+Row+(Downtown)\"\u003eSkid Row (Downtown)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Da-Doo\"\u003eDa-Doo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Grow+For+Me\"\u003eGrow For Me\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Somewhere+That's+Green\"\u003eSomewhere That'S Green\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA6 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Some+Fun+Now\"\u003eSome Fun Now\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA7 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Dentist!\"\u003eDentist!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Feed+Me+(Git+It)\"\u003eFeed Me (Git It)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Suddenly,+Seymour\"\u003eSuddenly, Seymour\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Suppertime\"\u003eSuppertime\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+The+Meek+Shall+Inherit\"\u003eThe Meek Shall Inherit\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Mean+Green+Mother+From+Outerspace\"\u003eMean Green Mother From Outerspace\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB6 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Howard+Ashman,+Alan+Menken+Finale+(Don't+Feed+The+Plants)\"\u003eFinale (Don'T Feed The Plants)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Geffen Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44468640972865,"sku":"4327896","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/NjgtMjUwMi5qcGVn.jpg?v=1787559682"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/collections\/howard-ashman-vinyl-records.oembed","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
