Alan Silvestri's BTTF Complete Sountrack 2 CD-Set


Wow! At last! From Intrada -- Alan Silvestri's complete orchestral Back to the Future soundtrack. Spectacular 2-CD set offers every cue Silvestri fashioned for landmark movie, presented from complete multi-track scoring session masters. CD 1 features now-iconic score used in movie. (Songs can be found on MCA label release.) But there's more! Many film fans know movie underwent changes in lead actor & serious tone of initial production. Find out now how Silvestri made changes as well! CD 2 presents early sessions featuring entire score Silvestri recorded before re-scoring with now-familiar one. Early version features darker, more serious tone in music than final version. Cool alternate scoring highlight: powerful trombone chords for initial version of Marty arriving in "Peabody Barn". Another powerful highlight: lengthy, intense action music for "George To The Rescue". Highlighting both discs, of course: early and final versions of complete "Clocktower" sequence, a genuine cinema-scoring milestone. Authoritative notes by Michael Matessino on background of production, scoring details, session dates plus great color stills complete package. Both early version and familiar "famous" version of score offer non-stop excitement! Alan Silvestri conducts.

The CD set arrived yesterday and I just can't say enough good things about it. I remember how disappointed I was when the original CD was released with just a small portion of the score. How wonderful it is to finally hear this monumental work in its entirety!

Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet Vulcan and told me that if I didn't buy Intrada's 2-disc Back to the Future soundtrack that he'd melt my brain. :blink:
