Hm, and I thought Disney severely cut down the physical CD output since their co-branding deal with Intrada started a few years back. I'm not surprised they're doing The Lone Ranger (Zimmer still sells CDs), but I thought Monsters University would be an Intrada release.

[Jay 46,244]

I thought so too!

Randy's Newman's Monsters University gets a physical CD from Disney but Danny Elfman's Oz doesn't?

 

Randy's Newman's Monsters University gets a physical CD from Disney but Michael Giacchino's Up doesn't?

 

Randy's Newman's Monsters University gets a physical CD from Disney but his own Toy Story 3 doesn't?

 

It's all odd

[Marian Schedenig 11,694]

Randy Newman is probably a big enough name (not just in the soundtrack community) to "warrant" a physical release on their own label.

Which doesn't explain the Toy Story 3 part.

The word "complete" on that bottom textbook nearly gave me a heart attack.

I still don't understand how Disney released UP in CD without it being the complete score, a highly acclaimed score which won the OSCAR! (an award they hadnt got since 1995's Pocahontas!!!!!!!!!!!)

[Jay 46,244]

Disney didn't even release UP on CD - they only released it as a digital download

It took the existence of Intrada for a CD to happen, and they chose to present the Grammy-award winning album presentation (they might have been obligated to do so anyway, I don't know). Can't argue with that.

We already have the complete score via the FYC and C&C promos, so who cares?

I'm sure in 10-20 years there could be an expanded CD anyway

Dude..i know intrada released it, but i didnt want to mention them since it could be interpreted as critizism for it..and im sure they would have been delighted to release the C&C

I mean, after the success of the score, Disney should have released the complete score, not the mp3 album. And it was the 1st collaborarion CD of the disneyland line, they should have started with a bang!

[Jay 46,244]

They wanted to release Giacchino's Grammy winning album arrangement on CD. I don't fault them for that.

It was an unlimited release. I'm sure a 3,000 copy expanded CD will come out in 10-20 years like every other score

Reuse fees are expensive

It says there aren't any samples on my computer?

[Jay 46,244]

Hmmm, mine too

I believe Mr. Fake mentioned that Michael Giacchino wanted it that way as well.
