The bonus disc is like the perfect 1-disc Elfman/Burton compilation. A great way to introduce Danny to your friends!

How does Sleepy Hollow sound? I'm really excited for that one, hoping the sound quality will be a revelation.
Just comparing the big brass crescendo when Elfman's name appears on screen (1:59-), there is a definite improvement in the mix/master. I'm not sure if I'm imagining this, but the sound is meatier and less brittle. Still, this is the album version — the film version is very different (solo vocal vs. choir, etc.)

Got mine today. The music box suite is the same one playing on the website. Pee-wee is great, everything else sounds pretty much the same. As stated its a great sampler of Elfman's greatest hits, kinda like a Burton/Elfman Music for a Darkened Theater. Great gesture to send it out, but I'm not sure whether I'll hang onto it. Anyone out there who didn't get one desperate to buy it?...
Can you drop me a line please?

I am so going to frame that cd together with the picture of Elfman signing it.,
A big thanks to mr. Kraft for arranging this!
As far as the tracklisting goes. I think a compilation of his best music fits a special cd like this a lot better than some unreleased demos or other tracks.

Do you really want to get rid of a disc signed by Danny Elfman which is bound to a limited edition? It doesn't seem a very wise intention. As soon as I receive mine I will put it in a glass case, even though I already have almost all of the track list.
Some people aren't really into collecting trophies. I can certainly understand the lack of enthusiasm for this disc if the music is all duplicated in the boxset. Some people see it as a needless redundancy. Mine hasn't arrived yet but I'm not sure at this point if it's something I'm going to want to keep (autographs have little meaning to me unless I've met the person signing and physically been at the scene while that person signed something for me).
If you need any help taking it off your hands send me a note!!

On a serious note, I'm impressed with Mr. Elfman's dedication to his fans by taking the time out to do this. What a nice fellow!
