Additional Notes:
Tracks 3 and 25: While the character in question is mainly referred to as "Hama" in the film, the track list notes her as "Ohama". Therefore, I went with the latter in an attempt to remain as faithful to the original Japanese text as possible.
Track 9: There is no specific English word(s) for this term. It roughly translates to "Killing a would-be avenger", which is what I more or less went with.
Track 10: The title of this cue refers to the second year of the Bunkyū era, which was 1862.
Track 20: The cue number for this track, M20 Iroha, can be translated as M20 Basic or M20 Basic Elements. I decide to leave "Iroha" as seen in the track list for reasons similar to tracks 3 and 25: I wanted to remain as faithful to the original Japanese text as possible. Lastly, this cue would be mixed into the Snowstorm Death Battle cue in the film (more on this cue below).
Track 32: The translation may not make since if you haven't seen the film. It refers to the film's abrupt ending.
Track 37: This stock cue was originally composed for the Akira Kurosawa directed film "Red Beard" (1965). However, it ended up unused in that film. As mentioned above, track 20 was mixed into this cue in "Daibosatsu Pass". Unfortunately, this wasn't replicated for this release. I also want to point out that listeners may recognize the material heard in this cue; as Masaru Sato reused it for the Godzilla film, "Ebirah, Horror of the Deep" (1966). Yes, Masaru Sato reused music just like Akira Ifukube and many other composers working during the Golden Age of Japanese cinema.
UPDATE (06/18/19): This album is out-of-print as of June 17, 2019.
