hmmm I'm a little bit concerned about the release date - the online shop where I usually order cds pushed the release date back to October 23
To coincide with the release of Afterlife likely.

It would make total sense to release anything Ghostbusters related when the film opens on November 11th here in the US all at the same time which would include Rob Simonsen's score for Afterlife which I'm sure Sony is also preparing to release right now. This is going to be like when La-La Land releases the original score to Top Gun and at the same time as Paramount releases Top Gun: Maverick in December to cash in while the film is hot in both cases.
As disappointing as this sounds, we can finally get real clarification that Edelman's score will get a CD and there's plenty of time for Sony to give a definitive announcement from here to November.

Good to know 
I'll buy it now, on CD, as opposed to just acquiring a copy or listening for free on Spotify* or YouTube.
*as an original sign-up member, I have Spotify free for life.

Never seen the sequel because I didn't like Ghostbusters that much - just Elmer's score, but now-days i'm willing too try past-time movies that I snubbed, & I don't know Edelman's style that could surprise me!
It's definitely the best thing about the film by far with the exception of the films' signature sequence which is when the Ghostbusters take the negative slime and convert it to a positive causing the Statue of Liberty to get up from Ellis Island and going to the museum to battle Viggo The Carpathian. The film isn't bad but it definitely is and was a major let down for a sequel just as Star Trek 5 was back in 1989.
Get the score, it's excellent and I've been waiting forever for it to get a release.

The score is take it or leave it. Don't expect the same level of work that Bernstein achieved.
The film is … well, "awful" might be too harsh, but it's certainly bad and that Statute of Liberty walking scene is terrible. And so is the mood slime.
I guess it's watchable … once. After that, I think we're just fooling ourselves (the general "us") into thinking it'll get better over time or some such excuse.

Rewatched GBII a couple weeks back and had a blast. Not a perfect movie, but still quite enjoyable. I remember loving only a few score cues, particularly during the last act, but after the recent revisiting I'm excited for a potential score album in a way I'd never before felt. Hopefully it will come.
Also, was remembering seeing the film opening night in Times Square, NYC. The audience was packed and really got into the film. Big cheers toward the screen for Bobby Brown's cameo and shrieks during the opening and bathtub sequences. I'd forgotten how THAT entertaining experience shaped my view of the film. I must have rewatched it on VHS like 20 times and countless other times on Cable and TV.
Honestly didn't realize there was a lot of Jeers for the movie till recent years. Perhaps I didn't expect it to be the second coming of part one, but it served it's purpose to entertain me at least. I kinda envy those days since I would later become quite critical of things after age 30.

I have vivid memories of seeing this in the theaters back in 89. Good times
