March 18, 2009 by James Harvey

La-La Land Records will be releasing the complete score soundtrack to the acclaimed Batman: Mask of the Phantasm animated feature at the end of March 2009.

A representative for La-La Land Records has confirmed for The World's Finest that the record label will be releasing the complete score to the acclaimed Batman: Mask of the Phantasm animated feature. La-La Land Records will start taking orders for Batman: Mask of the Phantasm - Expanded Archival Collection from the official La-La Land Records website beginning March 24th, 2009 at 12pm(PST)/3pm(ET), with the soundtrack set to be released on March 31st, 2009. The release is currently priced at $19.98US. Much like with their previous soundtrack release for Batman: The Animated Series, this Limited Edition release will only be available through La-La Land Record's official website and other participating websites.

A representative for La-La Land Records confirms the soundtrack will be a limited release of only 3000 copies, similar to their previous Batman: The Animated Series soundtrack release. The Batman: Mask of the Phantasm - Expanded Archival Collection CD soundtrack release will contain Shirley Walker's complete score to the feature film, completely remastered with more than 27 minutes off additional content. La-Land Records is billing this release as the definitive version of Shirley's complete orchestral score to the animated feature, and will also include a twenty page CD booklet featuring in-depth liner notes. The audio masters used for this release come directly from the late Shirley Walker's recording archive. Reprise Records, a Time Warner Company, previously produced a soundtrack release for Batman: Mask of the Phantasm with over 30 minutes of content in 1993.
