Just got this in my email today:
BATMAN (1989): LIMITED EDITION: 2 CD-SET (Expanded Archival Collection)
LLLCD 1140
Music by Danny Elfman
Limited Edition of 5000 UnitsAs part of our Expanded Archival Collection, La-La Land Records presents the World premiere release of the film version of Danny Elfman’s acclaimed original score to the 1989 Warner Bros. blockbuster BATMAN, starring Jack Nicholson, Michael Keaton and Kim Basinger and directed by Tim Burton. With a running time of 144 minutes, this 2-CD SET, produced by Dan Goldwasser, Neil S. Bulk and MV Gerhard, and remastered by James Nelson, features the previously unreleased film version of Mr. Elfman’s score, as well as a remastered presentation of the 1989 soundtrack album and never-before-released Bonus Tracks. 20 Page CD Booklet features in-depth liner notes by Jeff Bond. Limited Edition of 5000 Units
ABOUT THIS RELEASE: In order to present as much music as possible from Batman in the best possible quality, multiple sources were utilized with the best-quality elements selected for each cue on an individual basis. For disc one and the bonus cues on disc two, three sources were used: Eric Tomlinson’s 35mm 4-track mixes, 1/4 inch stereo mixes and a stereo 35mm music only track. The album cues on disc two were sourced from the original digital album master featuring Shawn Murphy’s stereo album mix.

July 17, 2010 at 2:19 pm #65613sandyclawsParticipantBelieve me, there is major excitement going on from me! Can’t wait!
July 17, 2010 at 7:14 pm #65614DannyBikerParticipantWhen are pre-orders beginning ?
July 17, 2010 at 9:49 pm #65615TenderLumplingParticipantOh, I think this is fantastic! I just think most people here felt this was a foregone conclusion. Anyhow, I can’t WAIT to hear the alternate cues. What a dream come true.
July 18, 2010 at 6:26 am #65616Descent Into MysteryParticipantI’ve been waiting YEARS for this!
July 19, 2010 at 1:14 pm #65620ThorParticipantUnsurprisingly, I’m totally indifferent to this release.
I felt the original soundtrack album was perfect – both in terms of sound and presentation.

July 20, 2010 at 2:22 pm #65624Danny_TrejoParticipantOH MY GOD! Elf-gasm….
July 21, 2010 at 9:54 pm #65626LuciusParticipantHere’s another Elfman music on Batman Begins video. This one is pretty well done, I think.

July 22, 2010 at 4:57 am #65628Mr. DantzParticipantI guess Batman Returns will have a similar release later this year. I always preferred that score.
July 22, 2010 at 1:42 pm #65629Descent Into MysteryParticipantBatman Returns is more dramatic and emotional, so I can understand why someone would prefer it. But I like Batman more because, for Elfman, it’s original. Returns was scored after Edward Scissorhands and the Nightmare Before Christmas SONGS and you can hear a lot of that syle in the Returns score.
July 22, 2010 at 3:44 pm #65630sandyclawsParticipantThat was my favorite time period for Elfman scores. 89′ thru 93′. Batman Returns was the best of them all. I can’t wait for the complete score!
July 22, 2010 at 5:31 pm #65631elfboy91ParticipantAgreed! I find myself listening to RETURNS way more than the Original! Although I like them both… I can’t wait to get this one though! I want some of that New and Improved JOKER PRODUCTS! Awesome!
