Quartet Records, in collaboration with Universal Music Enterprises and Paramount Pictures, presents the restored and remastered 2-CD reissue of Hans Zimmer's iconic score for Ridley Scott's 1989 action-suspense film BLACK RAIN, starring Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia as two New York City cops who arrest a Yakuza member and must escort him to Japan for extradition.
BLACK RAIN was the first collaboration of Hans Zimmer with Ridley Scott, kicking off a creative partnership that would go on to produce some of the most thrilling film scores of the next two decades. For this new release of the BLACK RAIN score, we were fortunate to access archival studio materials that had been transferred within the last decade?sources that were unavailable for previous editions. These included the original 24″ and 32″ multitrack recordings. With these elements in hand, the score was carefully restored, cleaned and remixed to achieve vastly improved sonic fidelity. Among the discoveries in these transfers were several unexpected bonuses. This expanded edition has been a long time coming, and we're thrilled that fans can finally experience Hans Zimmer's early action score in its most complete and dynamic form to date.
Painstakingly produced by Stephane Humez and Dan Goldwasser, mixed and mastered by Maxime Marion with the supervision and approval of the composer, the package includes detailed liner notes by Kaya Savas, including an exclusive interview with Mr. Zimmer.
リドリー・スコット監督が、マイケル・ダグラス、高倉健、この作品が遺作となった松田優作ほか日米の豪華キャスト共演で描いた傑作ノワール『ブラック・レイン』のハンス・ジマーによる傑作スコアを修復・リマスターした2枚組CDがリイシュー！
トラックリストマイケル・ダグラスとアンディ・ガルシアが、ヤクザの一員を逮捕し、身柄引き渡しのため日本に護送しなければならないニューヨーク市警の二人の警官を演じている。
『ブラック・レイン』はハンス・ジマーとリドリー・スコットの初タッグ作品であり、その後20年にわたり最もスリリングな映画音楽を生み出す創造的パートナーシップの幕開けとなった。今回の『ブラック・レイン』スコア再発にあたり、過去10年以内にトランスファーされたアーカイブスタジオ音源（過去の版では入手不可能だった音源）を入手できたことは幸運であった。これにはオリジナルの24インチおよび32インチ・マルチトラック録音も含まれる。これらの音源を基に、スコアは入念に修復・クリーニングされ、リミックスにより音質が大幅に向上した。トランスファー作業中に発見されたものの中には、予想外のボーナス音源も複数含まれていた。この拡張版は長年の念願であり、ファンがハンス・ジマーの初期アクションスコアを、これまでで最も完全かつダイナミックな形で体験できる！
ステファン・ユメズとダン・ゴールドワッサーによる入念な制作、マキシム・マリオンによるミキシングとマスタリングを経て、作曲家の監修と承認を得て完成した本パッケージには、カヤ・サヴァスによる詳細なライナーノーツと、ジマー氏への独占インタビューを収録。
レストランで偶然にヤクザの殺人に出くわしたニック（マイケル・ダグラス）とチャーリー（アンディ・ガルシア）両刑事は、その犯人佐藤（松田優作）を日本に護送するが、大阪空港で逃げられてしまう。府警の松本（高倉健）の監視下、警官としての権限の無いまま捜査を見守る彼らだったが、佐藤はそれを嘲笑うかの如く、自ら刺客となって二人の前に現れるのだった。1989年米。
