I am pleasantly surprised by this post. Never thought I'd see a label promoting an expanded release for a Zimmer score. I hope this means certain other 90s titles by the composer might get a chance in the near future too. Especially the early 90s titles, like Backdraft, League of Their Own, or Cool Runnings. Great release MV, looking forward to Broken Arrow. Listening to the original release now - great early Zimmer score. Hopefully La-La Land can bring more of Zimmer's early works like League, Backdraft, Thelma & Louise, and Rain Man I'd jump all over a full release of League of Their Own! Rain Man, however, recently was releasaed by Perseverence. Here's the link at Screen Archives. http://screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/14455/RAIN-MAN/

It would just be nice to see if we could now get one in decent quality

I'm glad to see another Hans Zimmer score out of the vaults, but Broken Arrow was never my favorite of his. As the original album is pretty generous at 60 min long I'm not sure if another 56 min would augment my impression. On the flip side I am interested on the effects of a remastering. The original album sounds ok, but lacks warmth and clarity. Could a more vibrant sound change my opinion?

Broken Arrow certainly wasn't the best action movies I've seen, but I just listened to samples of Milan's current release of the score on Amazon and think I'll give the score another try. I'll also take an expanded release of DAYS OF THUNDER and THE THIN RED LINE as mentioned earlier

Great News. Broken Arrow is one of my favorite Zimmer scores ... or by any composer for that matter. It's a really cool score, indeed. I wonder, did La-La Land get Zimmer's blessing on this one... although a big action score, there's also some Morricone influence, or tribute in there as well, so maybe he (Zimmer) is actually a bit proud of this score Really hope it will include the piece(s) from where, and around, Deakins appear again after the crash. That variation of the main (Deakins) theme with some female vocals etc. I've always missed... But if it's more than 30 min. of new material (not counting bonus material) it would seem like it should And with a total time of 116 min., that would mean like 20 (++) min. of bonus material. Would be interesting to see what that is. Hopefully not just "album versions" of the music on the OST, since it's the exact same stuff, only the cues are shortened and/or combined. You had some "punching" sounds added to the mix (in the film too) a couple of places, but don't know if it's worth to include those pieces twice (maybe as segments). But if so, that's fine. Personally I prefer the mixes without those punching sounds... As for the sound quality (of the original release), I don't think you can improve that much on it, since that had crystal clear sound !

Bravo, MV! I'll be ordering Broken Arrow. Can't you persuade Zimmer to do Thelma & Louise?
