Top Gun - Deluxe Edition Original Film Soundtrack/Score 2CD Promo (Faltermeyer)

Description: UltraRare (sealed) item. Deluxe Edition. Sought-after 2CD promo of Harold Faltermeyer TOP GUN private, unofficial Complete Motion Picture Soundtrack AND Score. Total Disc #1 21 TracksTotal Disc #2 23 TracksTotal CD Album Track & Time = 44 Tracks, 1 hour, 51 minutes This rare 2023 2CD set, limited to 500 copies, features Faltermeyer's complete, electronic-infused score to Tony Scott's film about a squadron of Navy pilots training in an elite program colloquially known as - you guessed it - Top Gun. Tom Cruise stars as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a talented but reckless pilot who must learn honor and responsibility alongside his instructor-turned-love interest Charlie Blackwood (Kelly McGillis), his best friend and wingman Nick "Goose" Bradshaw (Anthony Edwards) and his rival, Tom "Iceman" Kazinsky (Val Kilmer). Shot on a modest $15 million budget, Top Gun grossed more than $350 million worldwide - the highest flyer, #1 motion picture of 1986.Fresh of acclaimed, popular scores for Beverly Hills Cop and Fletch, Faltermeyer - known for pop work with Donna Summer and Giorgio Moroder - took his bank of synthesizers and keyboards to the next level with the rich musical textures of Top Gun. Anchored by the soaring theme "Top Gun Anthem," featuring Billy Idol sideman Steve Stevens on guitar, fans of the score came up short when the film first hit theaters, although Top Gun was hardly lacking in musical thrills. The picture boasted a soundtrack full of fast-paced pop songs including Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone" (a U.S. No. 2 hit), Loverboy's "Heaven in Your Eyes" (a U.S. No. 12) and Berlin's "Take My Breath Away" (a chart-topper in America and the Academy Award winner for Best Original Song) alongside tracks by Cheap Trick, Miami Sound Machine and Teena Marie. The album sold more than nine million copies in America and remains one of the most celebrated pop soundtracks. This earlier presentation honors both halves of the film's musical legacy, presenting the complete film score for the first time, the original soundtrack album, a selection of bonus cuts and classic pop songs from a 2000 reissue of that CD, several uncompiled B-sides from those singles featuring original recordings by Faltermeyer, and several unheard iterations of "Top Gun Anthem" in demo form. See track listings on 2nd pic. Note: This score doesn't contain SFC (the 1st time the score was released without SFX!). Factory pressed and sealed CDs. Very rare find. As good as the new La-La Land Records release. Harder to find earlier promo. Label: Air Force Records Reference: AFCD-000221095. Contains all the great tracks here, nothing missing. Awesome score, one of his Best! Get this gem while you can. Brand New! In sealed wrap.A Must for any serious fan of Top Gun and/or Harold Faltermeyer. S/H cost is $5. .
