So good. Can't stop listening to "Too Many Gremlins"
No kidding! It's an incredible album and I keep going back to specific tracks over and over, usually the ones with those cool slower variations of the Gremlin Rag. I'm tellin' ya, this album is swoon-worthy.

Some of the ultra cool nuggets are the Electronic riffs interspersed in the cues giving the Gremlins a very menacing edge even when there isnt any violent activity going.
And finally hearing that secondary gremlin theme in all its glory!

That secundary theme reappears in Gremlins 2 (which now deserves to be expanded and remastered!)
This is a landmark release. Very good! My congratulations to everyone in the team making this release possible. It's been worthy the waiting. But I just have a little complain. In the back cover (where tracklisting it is featured), how comes there is a Gizmo from Rick Baker's designs for second movie? I think this has to do with Warner as they used this picture for the DVD and Blu-Ray discs as well.
Cheers!
Warners chose to make that key art for the Gremlins DVD and we didn't second guess them. But congratulations of spotting the difference between Chris Walas and Rick Baker's work.

So I'm late to the party, my copy just arrived yesterday with some others.
I just wanted to personally say what an awesome release this is. I never had any of the unmentionables, but I did have the Geffen CD in the 90s which was more a sampler than anything else. The sound quality is amazing, and all the cues are so strong. I'm sure it has to do with my love of the movie, but the score is so amazing and holds up so well on its own, and above everything else, is classic 80s Goldsmith.
I've always felt Goldsmith's brilliance was overshadowed by John Williams (in the non-fan, public eye). I'm so happy that, to me anyway, his relationship with Joe Dante was the perfect union, up there with Hitchcock/Herrmann, Spielberg/Williams, etc. Something about Dante's love of shlock/satire/suburbia/corrupted Americana really brought the best out in Goldsmith.
The source cues are so amusing. I never figured the "blues" or "rabbit rampage" cues were written by Goldsmith. Like on Die Hard, I always find it so amusing how a composer can so simply dial up a genre and source cue, and it fits into that mold so well. Talent!
I find the three different Aftermath/Silent Night cues very interesting, and think the right choice was made in the film.
It took 27 years, but was worth the wait!
