In Your Eyes: Mondo Expands ‘Say Anything…’ Soundtrack with Unreleased Material

February 3, 2021 by The Second Disc | 2 Comments

Soundtrack vinyl label Mondo offers a killer new expanded release this week that’ll make even the staunchest opponent to selling, buying or processing anything reconsider their position: the stirring soundtrack to 1989 romantic comedy Say Anything… Already lauded for his teenaged work as a journalist for Rolling Stone (which inspired his 2000 film Almost Famous) and the book-turned-’80s film classic Fast Times At Ridgemont High, screenwriter Cameron Crowe made his directorial debut with this unlikely hit about a high school valedictorian (Ione Skye) who falls for an underachieving misfit classmate (Jon Cusack).

Band. It looks like those plans may be moving further forward: the label’s official Facebook page yesterday teased “huge plans for the label” in 2013.
