Originally meant to be an episodic entry in Steven Spielbergs Amazing Stories television series of the mid-1980s, the plot of *batteries not included was considered too overflowing with potential to constrain to anything less than a full feature film.No stranger to either Universals Spielberg-related productions or the genre of science fiction fairy tales was composer James Horner, whose career was entering full swing (quite literally) by the time *batteries not included arrived in 1987. The assignment gave Horner the opportunity to stay firmly rooted in his comfort zone within this narrow sub-genre, plucking many of the elements from his music for Cocoon for rearrangement in *batteries not included while also testing a few ideas that would receive significantly more development in The Land Before Time the next year.Created from the original manuscript, this release offers a rare opportunity to study film music in its authentic, original orchestration and arrangement. An opportunity not to be missed!
