Notes
MGM Records originally planned this release as a 10" LP containing just the eight main songs (but not The Girl Hunt Ballet) and assigned the catalogue number E 207. The 10" version was never released (the catalogue number never used) and this was the label's first 12" LP movie soundtrack album.
