Batman Complete Score.

[thecolorsblend]

WB pretty much emptied the vault when it comes to Superman music (and Superman stuff in general) around the time of Singerman's release.  Scores from all four of the real films, an extra disc featuring background music (whatever was playing on Lois' radio when the earthquake struck, the synthesized country crapola from Smallville in Superman III, etc) and another disc for the Ruby-Spears Superman cartoon from the 80's.

Meanwhile, Elfman's briliant scores languish...

I thought I'd post this here. I got an LP of Elfman's soundtrack at a flea market.

Really?  All of that was released for Superman?  On CD?  Not a bootleg?  Damn!  Where have I been?  I knew of an expanded Superman 1 score, but I guess I need to start working on tracking that stuff down.

Cool!!!!  What did you pay for it if I may ask?  I think I paid $10 for mine at a record store 10 years ago or so.  It may have been more.  I also got Prince's Batman LP at the same time.  I think I paid $16 for that one.  Either way, it's a great find!  Congrats!

Really?

Really really.  The S4 music was a REAL revelation.  It's easy to forget how well it turned out.  Williams?  No, but what is?

The rumors are many and varied.  I've not gotten involved with the pool as it's a well known fact that you neither confirm, deny or discuss these sorts of matters.

If Amazon fails you, there's always the usual spots to find this kind of stuff.

I bought the Superman set. It was very nicely done.

Perhaps the same company could do the same thing with the Burton/Shumacher films. I imagine it would be about the same number of CDs.

I paid $6.00 for a vinyl copy on eBay.

Does anyone know what the choir at the beginning of "Descent into Mystery" is saying? Also, what are they singing in? Latin? Italian?

Take this for the uninformed opinion that it is but I always assumed it was simple chanting.

I sort of thought that too.
