No Need To Pay $150 For Cat People Limited Edition Vinyl 45

See these eyes so green…

Despite the rarity of the exclusive limited edition Cat People vinyl 45 7″ that we told you about last month, (05.14.2009 NEWS: BOWIE TRACK ON NEW TARANTINO SOUNDTRACK) there are better ways to try and get the thing without coughing up $154 USD on eBay (Aprrox. £91 GBP), as some poor sap just has. Admittedly the auction was for a copy signed by Quentin Tarantino, so perhaps it was a good investment.

However, if you’re just after an unsigned copy of the 45, you can get one when you pre-order either the vinyl or CD of the Inglourious Basterds soundtrack from the official soundtrack website. The site claims the offer is open until September 17th, but I reckon they mean August 17th as it ceases to be a pre-order after that date.

HMV in London’s Oxford Street is also offering the record with pre-orders of the CD, as they have been since the day that Mr T was there signing copies.

If you don’t even want to pay a penny for the 45, you may want to try your luck in this Filter Magazine contest for the ultimate Inglourious Basterds prize pack, which is open until midnight on August 12th. We will be running our own contest to win copies of the record next week, ahead of the soundtrack release.

The Inglourious Basterds soundtrack is released on August 17th in the UK and the very next day in the USA.
