DANNY ELFMAN - Batman: Original Motion Picture Score LP (Turquoise Vinyl)

Label: Warner

Finally back on vinyl! This album contains Danny Elfman’s The Batman Theme which won the Grammy Award for “Best Instrumental Composition.”

Danny Elfman is one of the titans on film score composition. His dark and memorable themes are embedded in cinematic history, but it is this soundtrack which marks the most admirable chapter of his spectacular work. The theme which Elfman conjures for Batman is one which generations have come to identify as the definitive theme for the Caped Crusader of Gotham.

This vinyl is essential to any movie-score collection. It is the music which came to define the dark and Gothic hero whom battles Gotham's underbelly. The soundtrack is quite diverse, and explores many characters through a variance of instruments and tempos, however it magnificently draws all songs back to the original theme, linking the tracks with a fluidity that marks Elfman as a master of his field.
