D.A.R.Y.L.
MUSIC BY MARVIN HAMLISCH
LLLCD 1307
LIMITED EDITION OF 1500 UNITS
RETAIL PRICE: $19.98
ALBUM PRODUCED BY DAN GOLDWASSER
MASTERED BY JAMES NELSON at DIGITAL OUTLAND -- TACOMA, WA
LINER NOTES BY JEFF BOND
ART DIRECTION BY DAN GOLDWASSER
La-La Land Records and Paramount Pictures present the WORLD PREMIERE release of yet another 80’s classic – D.A.R.Y.L. This magnificent score was composed by another legend in the music industry – the late, great Marvin Hamlisch. If you grew up in the 80’s, this light hearted children’s sci-fi film was almost mandatory viewing on cable since it was probably shown at least twice a day on HBO for the entire decade! This La-La Land fav features a memorable and beautiful score by one of Hollywood’s most diverse and talented composers. Also on this release is the film’s title song – SOMEWHERE I BELONG, written by Hamlisch/Pitchford and performed by Teddy Pendergrass. Jeff Bond takes the listener deep inside the film’s history and the scores’ creation as Dan Goldwasser’s sure hand at art direction makes the whole thing look good.
Last but not least, La-La Land ventures out of the realm of soundtracks and into the realm of Bluegrass, Country, Folk, Rockabilly and Smooth Jazz….

Wow -- LLL is branching out! I'm intrigued by their first non-soundtrack release, and Empire of the Sun is amazing news! I'm not familiar with D.A.R.Y.L. but I'm glad for its fans. Only slight disappointment is Altered States, because it sounds like it could have been expanded were it not for the composer's wishes. Disappointing because they didn't have to mess with the album program; just present it first and the rest of the score as bonus tracks afterwards, as Lukas did a number of times for FSM releases...

Great releases! A shame we may not be able to get an Addams Family Values remastering down the road as well, since Varese owns that title and most likely will never revisit it. Nice work, LLL. Looking forward to these.

Why is it June 24th for Empire of the Sun and The Addams Family, instead of June 17th? I thought it was a 2 week gap between each wave of releases.
Does this mean that the July releases will be pushed back to the 8th and 22nd respectively?
WEA and UME titles tend to take longer to manufacture. We want to make sure those titles are in stock or close to being in stock before we ask you to fork over your hard earned Mula.
After June 24 we will be back on the schedule we set at the beginning of the year. JULY 15 will be the next release date. We are skipping July 1 due to the Holiday on July 4th
