Press Release from La-La Land: La-La Land Records and 20th Century Fox proudly present the remastered and expanded re-issue of renowned composer David Newman’s (THE WAR OF THE ROSES, GALAXY QUEST, THE SANDLOT) original motion picture score to the 1992 historical dramatic epic HOFFA, starring Jack Nicholson and Danny DeVito, and directed by DeVito. An important work in composer David Newman’s canon, HOFFA is an orchestral wonder, grand in emotional scope and sweep, evoking and supporting the powerful dramatic waves inherent in this film’s true-story telling of the rise and fall of the U.S. labor movement’s titular hero, Jimmy Hoffa. Lush, romantic and powerful, Newman’s score honors Hoffa’s achievements and ultimate sacrifice, and this new release showcases the music in all its cinematic glory. Produced by Mike Matessino and Neil S. Bulk, and mastered by Matessino, this limited edition release of 2000 units features a running time of more than 30 minutes beyond the original 1993 soundtrack presentation, featuring previously unreleased cues and bonus tracks. Writer Tim Greiving provides the exclusive, in-depth liner notes and the epic art design is by Jim Titus.
