What is the first Pixar film that comes to your mind when you think of the famed studio’s catalog? More than likely your response was probably Pixar’s ground-breaking first full-length film featuring the unstoppable duo of Buzz and Woody — Toy Story. The movie not only wowed audiences with its amazing new animation style but also with its sharp wit and ability to make you feel genuine emotion for the film’s characters — would they ever get back to Andy safely?

The emotional pull of the story, the wonderful design of the characters, and the incredible vocal work are just a few of the elements that comprise this masterpiece. But, what about Randy Newman’s brilliant and astounding (now iconic) score and songs? The visual and audio are so intertwined that there is no way one can be referenced without also thinking of the other. Heck, You’ve Got a Friend in Me may very well be one of the most memorable moments in all of Pixar’s history.

TWENTY YEARS LATER

November 1995 — As soon as the credits rolled on Toy Story, I immediately jumped out of my theater seat and was on a mission — I had to own the soundtrack to the film I just experienced. This may sound like an exaggeration to suit the story, but I assure you it is not. And now, twenty years later as Pixar celebrates its 2-decade milestone, Walt Disney Records will release (as part of The Legacy Collection series) a wonderful re-issue of the Toy Story soundtrack with even more songs and ways to enjoy Mr. Newman’s work.
Pixar Post was given the exclusive first look at the high-resolution artwork and tracklisting for the 2-disc Legacy Collection set releasing on July 10, 2015 (Walt Disney Records).

ADDITIONAL DETAILS & ORDERING

Note: Pixar Post may receive a commission for items purchased through affiliate links in this article — we thank you for your support.

Serious fans of Pixar’s scores know that the “Cast and Crew” soundtracks for each film (exclusive to Pixar Animation Studio employees) contain two to three times the number of songs as the retail release. What’s even more exciting (and why we feel this is essential to own) is that an official “Cast and Crew” Toy Story soundtrack was never produced — until now. 

Disc one contains the complete score (including songs) from the film in sequential order, while disc two contains instrumental and demo versions of the iconic songs. The set also comes with a collectible 20-page booklet which includes liner notes by John Lasseter and Randy Newman.

The cover artwork was created by the exceedingly talented Lorelay Bové, a visual development artist with Walt Disney Animation Studios (TangledWinnie the PoohWreck-It Ralph). Bove’s art can be seen in the hardcover book, Lovely: Ladies of Animation: The Art of Lorelay Bové, Brittney Lee, Claire Keane, Lisa Keene, Victoria Ying and Helen Chen. Additionally, Bové was recently named one of ‘10 Animators to Watch’ by Variety (the same article we discussed that also noted Toy Story 4 co-director, Josh Cooley, as well).
Be sure to pick up The Legacy Collection: Toy Story on Amazon, Apple Music, Spotify, or YouTube Music (released on July 10, 2015).
