Steiner - Das Eiserne Kreuz II
*2025 stock* Following the immensely successful and profitable School Girl Report movies producer Wolf C. Hartwig could afford a much bigger international production: Steiner – Cross of Iron, based on a World War II novel, should be directed by none other than Sam Peckinpah. The music was supposed to come from the pen of Peter Thomas. Unfortunately, the two did not get along (interview with Peter Thomas in “Der Filmkomponist Peter Thomas” by Gerd Naumann, 2009 ibidem Verlag). In the end, the Ame…
Winnetou Und Sein Freund Old Firehand (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
*2025 stock* Winnetou und sein Freund Old Firehand (aka: Thunder at the Border, Winnetou and Old Firehand) was the finale of Horst Wendlandt's Rialto Film adaptations of Karl May's novels in 1966.

This met with a mixed response from critics and fans, with opinions ranging from ‘exp…
Edgar Wallace - Music From The Original Movies (Revised)

Peter Thomas was responsible for the unmistakable sound of almost half of these thrillers (18 out of 38). Depending on the budget, he was able to let off steam: screams, gunshots, the clicki…

Derrick & Der Alte (Music From The Original TV-Series 1974-1984)
Derrick turns 50 this year, but the extremely popular and highly successful German crime series has gone quiet. This is due to chief inspector Horst Tappert's posthumously publicized Nazi past. A comparable TV series, on the other hand, continues to run unwaveringly to this day: Der Alte. What they both have in common, and the subject of this album, is that Peter Thomas was one of their musical creators in their early phase. Peter Thomas and his Sound Orchester composed and played the music for …

Alan Vega
Alan Vega's self-titled debut solo album was released in 1980 during the same period Suicide released their second album, Suicide: Alan Vega and Martin Rev. While Suicide's label ZE Records was interested in pushing the duo toward a synthetic disco sound inspired by Moroder's production on Donna Summer's "I Feel Love," Vega felt a pull in a different direction. He wanted to dig deeper into the roots of his own sonic identity, fueled by blues, rockabilly, early rock n roll, and his enduring love …
