Galt MacDermot - Woman Is Sweeter (Martine's Movie Soundtrack)

The definitive reissue of HAIR composer Galt MacDermot’s masterpiece – a quirky instrumental album originally created as the soundtrack to a film about fashion designer Yves St. Laurent. Long loved by hip hop samplers (one of the first to use it was the legendary J Dilla), funk and rare groove aficionados and those into the shapes of rhythm.

Woman Is Sweeter is one of the few to feature drummers Bernard Purdie and Idris Muhammad on the same album.

Exclusive audiophile vinyl produced by Now Again Records in celebration of Record Store Day 2023. All-analog transfer by Bernie Grundman from the original master tapes. Includes an extensive booklet written by Eothen Alapatt, who worked with Galt MacDermot since the 1990s, about the composer’s life in music.
