TOP GUN: LIMITED EDITION (2-CD SET)
LLLCD 1606
Music by Harold Faltermeyer
Limited Edition of 5000 Units

RETAIL PRICE: $29.98

STARTS SHIPPING MARCH 11

Available to order NOW at www.lalalandrecords.com - the first 150 orders of TOP GUN will get a CD Booklet autographed by the composer at no additional charge. Autographs are available while supplies last and ARE NOT GUARANTEED.

La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures and Columbia Records present the world premiere official release of renowned composer Harold Faltermeyer’s (FLETCH, BEVERLY HILLS COP, THE RUNNING MAN) original motion picture score to the iconic 1986 aerial blockbuster action/drama TOP GUN, starring Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis, and directed by Tony Scott. Composer Faltermeyer defined the 80’s film score pop-synth landscape with such legendary scores as BEVERLY HILLS COP and FLETCH only to re-define it further with TOP GUN, a propulsive and imaginative musical juggernaut that still inspires and influences film scores today – including the recent smash TOP GUN: MAVERICK.

Aside from two previously released tracks, this remastered and expanded deluxe 2-CD presentation marks the first time Faltermeyer’s TOP GUN score has been made officially available in any format! Disc One showcases the brilliant film score, along with bonus demo cues, and Disc Two presents songs from the film, including the #1 hits “Danger Zone,” performed by Kenny Loggins and the Oscar-Winning “Take My Breath Away,” performed by Berlin – both co-written and produced by the great Giorgio Moroder – as well as “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling,” performed by The Righteous Brothers and more, plus additional bonus tracks. Produced by for La-La Land Records by Dan Goldwasser, mastered by Doug Schwartz and approved by the composer, this limited edition of 5000 units includes exclusive, in-depth liner notes by writer Tim Greiving, with new interview quotes from Faltermeyer, and high-flyin’ art design by Goldwasser. A must-have for all film music and pop culture fans that’ll take your breath away!

KABOOOOOOOOOM

Cannot wait for this.

Great to see the score tracks interpolating themes from the songs, like "Jester Flying," in the track list. The resources spent on this project for licensing alone must have dwarfed the entirety of other projects. Glad to see this now about to go out into the world. Congrats!

Wow, so it finally happened!

Great news, of course. It's been a holy grail of mine for years, despite excellent bootlegs. Of course, I can't currently afford it, with current shipping rates and whatnot ($50 total is beyond my financial abilities), but I'm just glad it's finally released.

Ok, so now I'm just waiting to wake up and post on the FSM board that I had a dream that Top Gun was finally released.....

I ordered so fast that I didn't see the "Fletch Lives" deal. Crap.

ORDERED!!!!

Didn't even look at the track details until I finished the transaction. My comment to my colleague was "Now I should probably find out what I just bought".

MV, just FYI, the track sample for "Goose's Death/Memories" (track 1-15) is actually "Top Gun Theme (original demo - May 4, 1985)" (track 1-21).

AMAZING!!!! I only noticed on Twitter at 5:07 UK time and autographed copies were still available, finished the transaction at 5:11, went back to the main page and they were still available so I'm hopeful! Bit of a wait though before finding out haha!

Fabulous release! Bravo LaLa!

Didn't get the La-La Land e-mail until 12:23 PM and the autographed copies were already gone. I thought they used to give us advanced notice about releases and tell us to start ordering at 3 PM or something like that.

Couldn’t hit the PayPal button fast enough….never glanced at the track or release details. Just wish I wasn’t in the “John” while the release email went out. smile

Pretty sure I missed out on the autographed copy - guess I’ll find out when it shows up in the mailbox.

Wow, great release. Thanks (again) LLL!!!

Not really my thing, but I am SO happy than all the Top Gun fans who have been waiting so long for this finally have their holy grail!

MV, how long has this been in the works for you? Over half a decade, I am sure… maybe even closer to a full decade? Major congrats in finally getting it across the finish line! I hope it’s a giant seller!

And congrats to anyone fast enough to get one of the 150 autographed copies!
