La-La Land Records, Capitol Records and Paramount Pictures proudly present the expanded and remastered 2-CD SET of acclaimed composer Hans Zimmer’s (THELMA & LOUISE, SHERLOCK HOLMES, INCEPTION, THE DARK KNIGHT RISES) original score to the 1989 culture-clash cop/actioner BLACK RAIN, starring Michael Douglas, Andy Garcia and Ken Takakura, and directed by Ridley Scott. Zimmer’s pulse-pounding score would become a sonic blueprint for action film scoring throughout the 90’s and well into the present. Finally, as produced by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by Doug Schwartz, BLACK RAIN gets its much-deserved and expanded deluxe treatment, presenting Zimmer’s film score on Disc 1 and the original, remastered 1989 album presentation on Disc 2, along with bonus tracks and alternate cues that include the main title version of the opening song “I’ll Be Holdin’ On.” Tim Grieving’s exclusive, in-depth liners take you behind the film and its iconic score. This is a limited edition of 3000 Units.
