Batman the animated series: Vol. 1

A grande richiesta La La Land ripubblica il titolo esaurito del 2008 per le legioni dei fan di Batman che hanno perso questa prima uscita alla dinamite. Questa seconda edizione è virtualmente identica a quella del 2008 a parte per la bonus track "Gotham City Overture" e "Music of the Bat" che sono state tolte per preservare l'integrità della prima stampa.

L'affascinante musica orchestrale per la popolare serie cartoon della Warner Bros/D.C. Comics è di nuovo disponibile in questa edizione limitata su 2 CD. Il compositore Shirley Walker (WILLARD, MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN, FINAL DESTINATION 1-3, THE FLASH) assieme a Lolita Ritmanis e Michael McCuistion (BATMAN BEYOND, TEEN TITANS) e l'iconico "Batman Theme" di Danny Elfman, hanno rivoluzionato la serie tv con un score robusta, sanguignia che ha sostenuto BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES fino a vette molto elevate arricchendo così l'eredità del cavaliere oscuro. Il CD ci offre un booklet con note di produzione approfondite inclusi i commenti dello scrittore/produttore Paul Dini e dei compositori Lolita Ritmanis, Michael McCuistion e Danny Elfaman. Edizione limitata a 5000 copie.
