Renowned for his concert compositions, this was Mr. Corigliano’s debut film score – a strikingly original and thrilling work, both spellbindingly haunting and emotionally powerful, that would receive an Oscar nomination. Personally supervised by Corigliano, this special release of his ground-breaking score was remastered by Mark Wilder and produced by Didier C. Deutsch. In depth, exclusive liner notes from writer Jeff Bond include new comments from the composer as they take you behind one of the most notable films and scores of the 80’s, while Dan Goldwasser’s atmospheric art design takes you deeper into the beyond. A must-have for any soundtrack enthusiast, ALTERTED STATES has returned sounding better-than-ever! John Corigliano created the sequence for the original RCA 1980 score album. At his request, we have retained that original sequence for this album. D.A.R.Y.L.: LIMITED EDITION LLLCD 1307 Music by Marvin Hamlisch Limited Edition of 1500 Units La-La Land Records and Paramount Pictures present the world premiere release of renowned composer Marvin Hamlisch’s (SOPHIE’S CHOICE, ORDINARY PEOPLE, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME) original motion picture score to the 1985 Paramount Pictures family sci-fi drama D.A.R.Y.L, directed by Simon Wincer and starring Mary Beth Hurt, Michael McKean and Barret Oliver. Hamlisch’s robust and thematic score is ripe for discovery – a beautiful and sincere work that is both heartfelt and exciting as it expertly and emotionally ties together all the dramatic and action elements of the film’s clever sci-fi riff on the classic Pinocchio story. Produced by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by James Nelson, this special limited release of 1500 units also features the song written for the film, “Somewhere I Belong,” written by Hamlisch/Pitchford and performed by Teddy Pendergast. Film music writer Jeff Bond provides exclusive, in depth liner notes while Dan Goldwasser ties it all together with sharp art design. ANNIE HARVEY: DREAM MOTEL & PIECES OF ME (2-CD SET) LLLCD 1702 Music by Annie Harvey La-La Land Records proudly invites you to enter the beautiful musical world of singer/songwriter/musician Annie Harvey with the release of ANNIE HARVEY: DREAM MOTEL & PIECES OF ME. Having started writing songs in high school, Harvey signed with Triad Artists in 1979 and began touring the bluegrass circuit, opening for Doc Watson, J.D. Crowe, Seldom Scene and many others. She would later perform at McCabe’s Guitar Shop, the Troubadours of Folk Music Festival, and KPFK’s “Folkscene” & KPCC’s “Citybilly” radio shows. The 28 songs on this 2-CD SET were recorded from 1987 through 2010 and showcase Harvey’s wide range -- from bluegrass, country and folk, to rockabilly and smooth jazz. Featured musicians include Brantley Kearns (from Dwight Yoakum’s band), Bill Bryson (from the Desert Rose Band) and the late Dick Fegy. The sessions’ producers are Dick Fegy, Don Heffington, Duke McVinnie, John O’Kennedy and David Pearlman and the music has been mastered by James Nelson. The attractive digipak packaging, designed by Mark Banning, features exclusive liner notes. This release is also available for digital download at iTunes and other digital music retailers. SON OF BATMAN: LIMITED EDITION LLLCD 1304 Music by Frederik Wiedmann Limited Edition of 1500 Units La-La Land Records and Warner Bros. Animation proudly present the original score to the all-new DC Universe Animated Movie SON OF BATMAN. Acclaimed composer Frederik Wiedmann (GREEN LANTERN THE ANIMATED SERIES, JUSTICE LEAGUE: THE FLASHPOINT PARADOX) finds the perfect pitch for the Caped Crusader with a vigorous orchestral score that chronicles Batman’s fight against Gotham crime with his son Damian (the new Robin). Wiedmann expertly mines both sides of Batman, musically capturing the complex character’s heroic feats as well as his dark, conflicted psyche. Produced by the composer and MV Gerhard, and mastered by James Nelson, this limited edition of 1500 units contains two exclusive tracks not available on the digital download version. The CD booklet is infused with great pics and includes brief comments from the composer and the film’s animation director. The Gotham-infused art design is by Dan Goldwasser. THE PEACEMAKER: LIMITED EDITION (2-CD SET) LLLCD 1309 Music by Hans Zimmer Limited Edition of 3000 Units La-La Land Records, UME and Paramount Pictures present a remastered and expanded 2-CD SET of renowned composer Hans Zimmer’s (BLACK RAIN, THELMA & LOUISE, BROKEN ARROW, MAN OF STEEL) original motion picture score to the 1997 Dreamworks dramatic action/thriller feature, THE PEACEMAKER, starring George Clooney and Nicole Kidman, and directed by Mimi Leder. At long last, one of Mr. Zimmer’s most notable 90’s action scores roars back to the forefront in a deluxe presentation that boasts a running time over two and a half hours and includes such bonus cues as original album edits, an alternate Lisbeth Scott vocal, and the original trailer music. This is expert action-thriller scoring - powerful, thematic music that propels the action with muscle, while never losing sight of the humanity at stake. Produced by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by Doug Schwartz, this limited edition of 3000 units includes exclusive, in-depth liners by Tim Greiving and tactically-sharp art direction by Goldwasser. THE RAT PATROL VOLUME TWO: LIMITED EDITION LLLCD 1302 Music by Dominic Frontiere and Alex North Limited Edition of 1200 Units La-La Land Records and MGM proudly present RAT PATROL: VOLUME TWO, our second limited edition volume of original score from the classic 60’s WWII television series THE RAT PATROL, starring Christopher George, Gary Raymond and Eric Braeden. More exciting library cues written for the series by Dominic Frontiere (THE OUTER LIMITS, BRANNIGAN, COLOR OF NIGHT) roar to life as they accompany the Rat Patrol on their thrilling life-and-death missions. Also showcased here is a wonderful unearthed gem… the never-before-heard, unused pilot score composed by Alex North (SPATACUS, BITE THE BULLET, DRAGONSLAYER). Produced by Ford A. Thaxton and James Nelson, and mastered by Nelson, this special limited edition of 1200 Units is a must-have for fans of this beloved show and the composers. Film music historian and writer Jon Burlingame takes you behind the show’s music with his exclusive, in-depth liners, while Mark Banning reports for duty with fully-armed, combat-ready art design! DENNIS THE MENACE: LIMITED EDITION LLLCD 1288 Music by Jerry Goldsmith Limited Edition of 3000 Units La-La Land Records, WEA and Warner Bros. present the latest in our expanded archival collection, Jerry Goldsmith’s original motion picture score to the 1993 feature film DENNIS THE MENACE, starring Walter Matthau, Joan Plowright and Mason Gamble, and directed by Nick Castle. Expanded with more than 20 minutes of previously unreleased music, plus bonus tracks, Goldsmith’s (PATTON, ALIEN, POLTERGEIST, FIRST KNIGHT) heartwarming and whimsical score, considered to be one of his most entertaining 90’s works, is a sheer delight - and the undeniable heartbeat of this sweet John Hughes-produced, live-action telling of Hank Ketcham’s beloved comic strip character. Produced by Neil S. Bulk and Bruce Botnick (the score’s original recording engineer), this special limited edition release of 3000 units has been mastered by Botnick from the original, first generation three-track digital mixes. Exclusive, in-depth liners from film music writer Jeff Bond, (with comments from with Goldsmith’s agent, Richard Kraft), and David Fein’s playful art design wrap it all up in wondrous style.
