This is a digital download for the 1983 comedy and Christmas classic, A Christmas Story. It features the soundtrack in .WAV format and the front and back inserts for CD. Before it became a beloved classic, the film was kind of a bomb when it debuted and a original soundtrack featuring the traditional holiday songs was never created or produced for the film -- this is it!
In 2009, a limited edition CD of the incidental musical score was finally released but is now out-of-print and commanding prices in the hundreds of dollars. This collection includes the out-of-print score plus all of the holiday songs from the film. The sound is excellent.
