November 29, 2013: "Superman Returns" Limited Edition 2-CD Soundtrack

La-La Land Records are releasing a Limited Edition 2-CD set of the "Superman Returns" Soundtrack.

La-La Land Records, Warner Bros., and WEA proudly present another expanded and remastered title in our line of archival releases in celebration of Warner Bros. 90th anniversary - composer John Ottman's (THE USUAL SUSPECTS, X-MEN 2: X-MEN UNITED, KISS KISS BANG BANG) score to the 2006 Warner Bros. feature film SUPERMAN RETURNS, starring Brandon Routh, Kevin Spacey and Kate Bosworth, and directed by Bryan Singer. Composer Ottman pays homage to John William's iconic SUPERMAN theme, incorporating Williams' music within his own thrilling, emotionally-charged orchestral score to this re-imagining of the Man Of Steel legend. Expanded over its previous release by more than 70 minutes, this 2-CD presentation of SUPERMAN RETURNS finally gives this wonderful score its proper place within the SUPERMAN musical legacy - and it arrives just in time to celebrate Superman's 75th anniversary! Produced by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by Doug Schwartz, this special limited release of 3000 units contains Bonus Tracks and exclusive, in-depth liner notes from film music writer Jeff Bond. Dan Goldwasser provides the soaring art design.
