Vinyl LP pressing. Original soundtrack to the hit motion picture starring Michael Keaton, Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis. The Beetlejuice soundtrack, first released in 1988 on LP features most of the score (written and arranged by Danny Elfman) from the film. On top of Elfman's score, the soundtrack also features two Harry Belafonte songs which appeared in the film: "The Banana Boat Song" and "Jump in the Line (Shake, Senora)". The plot of the film revolves around a recently deceased young couple (Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis) who become ghosts haunting their former home, and an obnoxious, devious ghost named Betelgeuse (pronounced Beetlejuice, portrayed by Michael Keaton) from the Netherworld who tries to scare away the new inhabitants (Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, and Winona Ryder) permanently.
