Description
Danny Elfman, who has scored many of Tim Burton's imaginative films (Edward Scissorhands, his two Batman films, etc.), is a perfect musical partner for the somewhat macabre director, and never more so than here, where, in fact, Elfman gets not only to write the music but to play the part of the main character. The Nightmare Before Christmas is an animated movie musical about the abduction of Christmas by the denizens of Halloween land, and Elfman sings the part of Jack, the Pumpkin King.
Patrick Stewart recorded narration for a prologue and epilogue. While not used in the final film, the narration is included on the soundtrack album.
Jack Skellington and his frightful cast of characters are ready to celebrate the Nightmare Before Christmas with this boo-tiful 2-picture disc vinyl set. Featuring images from the classic Tim Burton film and the full soundtrack composed by Danny Elfman, this is a wickedly perfect collection for any Nightmare fan.
