Would someone happen to know who the actual artists were for each track from the first Metal Gear?

I have found from various places that IKU MIZUTANI, SHIGEHIRO TAKENOUCHI, & MOTOAKI FURUKAWA were the composers; & that IKU MIZUTANI composed Theme of Tara.

Edit:

Anyone know why 18 NIGHTFALL says "Schneider?" This is the music the plays when Snake meets Holly. And it doesn't play after...

*SPOILER!*

Snake defeats Black Color/Ninja

Double Edit:

I think "Spiral" was confused with "Escape." Weird.

I too would be interested in finding out the original artists. I'm currently editing all of my tags on my albums to show original artists and this would be very useful.

Iku Mizutani is credited for "Main sound effect" and the other two are "Sub Sound Effect".

I dunno what exactly this means, but it could mean Iku did most or all of the music, and the other two did SFX or something along these lines.

The PC-88 version of Snatcher credits "M.ADACHI" (Masanori Adachi?) as the composer of "Theme of Tara." More about Snatcher's music in this thread: https://vgmdb.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2123.

Where does the Front/Back artwork come from? Every unboxing pic I find only shows the obi with the disc inside a transparent case.

Does anyone know which came out first? The MSX2 version of Metal Gear or the Famicom version? Their soundtracks only seem to share one piece and I'm curious which one was arrangement of the other? And with that, who the actual composer was of that track (the ending track "Return of Fox Hounder").

Metal Gear was originally released for MSX2 in July of 1987. It was later (hurriedly) ported to Famicom and released December of 1987.

As for music shared by both games:

5. Mercenary
6. TX-55 Metal Gear
7. Escape –Beyond Big Boss–
8. yeah, you mentioned this
9. Just Another Dead Soldier
