I am one of those people who still apreciates the older elfman scores from the 80’s and 90’s, they still hold up to me . I enjoy them all no spacific score, they’re just that good. But if I could pick any I’d chooose the gothic stlye scores, Batman Returns, Somersby, Mission Impossible A Simple Plan
I think everybody prefers the scores from his hayday. The late eighties and early nineties were when he had his style refined to it’s best. Those were the scores that got him noticed in the first place.
My iPod is loaded with them.
I can say the only score from back then I don’t like that much is Nightbreed.
The rest I could listen to time after time until I drop dead.
How could anyone not? Like someone said Elfman was at the top of his game from 89-94. Wish that old Elfman would come back someday. Had a brief glimpse of his greatness with Sleepy Hollow in 98 though.
I have an old 1gig MP3 player that is PURELY older Elfman stuff… everything from Batman to Scissorhands… from Dick Tracy to BeetleJuice… all the good stuff. I also have a 20gig Ipod with a bunch of other movie scores, and some newer Elfman stuff — which of course, I love as well.
Guess which one I listen to more, though.
