Macy, Don Knotts and J. T. Walsh. The 2-LP deluxe edition features the film’s original score composed by Academy Award winner Randy Newman (Toy Story, Monsters, Inc., The Princess and the Frog, A Bug’s Life, Marriage Story, Avalon, Cars) and will be available on Red, White and Blue swirl vinyl in North America, while the international edition is pressed on Translucent Tan vinyl. The soundtrack will be released on September 13 and is now available for pre-order on Amazon, where you can also check out the track list.
