We begin a month of travel-related music in what I am calling World Tour November. And what better way to begin that month than with a tour of the world all in one album. This episode will serve as the month’s Overture, so to speak.

The movie, based on a Jules Verne novel, was an epic screen hit that won eight Academy Awards. Not only was the lead character a trailblazer in the film, but the entire production was considered a trailblazer itself in many ways.

So, get ready to hear the soundtrack that won the 1957 Oscar for Best Original Score in Volume 201: 80 Days with Passepartout.

More information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
