Intrada is set to make Disney fans p-p-p-pleased with a major soundtrack expansion: Alan Silvestri's stirring score to Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Gary K. Wolf's quirky novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit? - the tale of a hard-boiled private detective named Eddie Valiant solving the murder of a comic strip character - was equal parts Raymond Chandler and Chuck Jones, and perfect film fodder. But nobody could have predicted what Who Framed Roger Rabbit would have become: Jeffrey Price and Peter S.

Some Disc! 'Charlotte's Web' Soundtrack Makes CD Debut From Varese
In 1973, Hanna-Barbera's animated adaptation of E.B. White's beloved children's novel Charlotte's Web was released; over time, it became a multi-generational classic. 45 years later, a major milestone occurs with the first ever CD release of the film's winning soundtrack, courtesy of Varese Sarabande. Though White professed to not care for the film, condemning it as "a travesty" and admitting "I don't care much for jolly songs," Charlotte's Web has incredibly gained fans with time. The story

WIN! WIN! WIN! Celebrate Eight Great Years With a Varese Mega-Giveaway!!
It's no "Video Killed The Radio Star" on MTV, but it's still pretty cool! On January 11, 2010, a very simple Wordpress version of The Second Disc opened its digital doors. In the eight years since, a lot of stuff about the business has changed - back then, there were still four major music labels, and streaming music wasn't really a thing in the U.S. - but we think one thing has remained consistent: this has remained a hub for enthusiastic coverage of reissues, compilations, box sets and all

This Friday, January 12, Varese Sarabande is reissuing the long-out-of-print soundtrack album to 1984's thriller Thief of Hearts.

The film starred newcomer Steven Bauer as Scott, a burglar who breaks into the home of
Soundtrack Watch: Intrada Crowns 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves,' La-La Land Boards 'Deep Space Nine'
From the forests of medieval England to the furthest corners of the galaxy, two of the biggest soundtrack labels are kicking off 2018 with some great archival titles. Intrada announced last night their first release of the year: an expansion of Michael Kamen's score to Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. The 1991 adaptation of the English folk hero, starring Kevin Costner in the title role and star turns from Morgan Freeman (as Azeem, one of the Merry Men) and Alan Rickman (as the villainous

First up is a CD reissue of an obscure title featuring two members of the Faces: Mahoney's Last Stand - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Ronnie Lane and Ron Wood.

The Year In Review - The 2017 Gold Bonus Disc Awards, From A to Z
Happy New Year, and welcome to The Second Disc's Eighth Annual Gold Bonus Disc Awards! As with every year's awards, our goals are simple: to recognize as many of the year's most essential reissues and catalogue titles as possible, and to celebrate as many of those labels, producers and artists who make these releases happen in the current retail landscape. The labels you'll read about below have, by and large, bucked the trends to prove that there's still a demand for physical catalogue
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Elton John, 'Diamonds'
It's not untoward to ask exactly who the intended audience of an Elton John compilation is in 2017. The British piano pop legend has been releasing music for more than 50 years now, and has enjoyed a run of success that began early in the '70s and has yet to entirely let up. And in that time, there have been plenty of collections for fans of all stripes. His very first greatest hits album topped both the U.S. and U.K. charts in 1974 and prompted a sequel only three years later (and a third a
A SECOND DISC INTERVIEW! Have No Fear, Bond Is Here: "Casino Royale: 50th Anniversary" Reissue Announced, Chris Malone Explains Restoration
Seven James Bonds at Casino Royale/They came to save the world and win the gal at Casino Royale! Six of them went to a heavenly spot, the seventh one is going to a place where it's terribly hot... Hal David's lyric captures just a small fraction of the insanity of Charles K. Feldman's 1967 Casino Royale, the big-budget comic extravaganza and cult favorite that was "too much...for one James Bond!" And so, David Niven as James Bond was joined by 007s of all shapes and sizes (and genders!),

Mommie Dearest: Music From the Motion Picture
Mommie Dearest, featuring a score by the legendary Henry Mancini, arrives on vinyl for the first time. The controversial 1981 film was based upon the book by Christina Crawford, recounting the abuse that her mother Joan Crawford allegedly inflicted upon her. Faye Dunaway starred as Crawford, and her over-the-top performance turned the film into a cult classic despite the lukewarm critical reception it received at the time. The prolific Mancini tailored his score to reflect the time period

With a Bang! Legacy Recordings Brings "The Bert Berns Story" Soundtrack to Vinyl

Though Berns died in the final days of 1967 at just 38 years of age, a year hasn't gone by since when his songs haven't
