Varèse Sarabande and Craft Recordings announced that they are bringing both Pee-Wee's Big Adventure and the Back to School soundtracks to vinyl. The two soundtracks, both written by Danny Elfman, will be put together on one vinyl release, which you can see here.

Side A will feature the Pee-wee film, while the Rodney Dangerfield classic will take up Side B. Both were presented in the best quality possible to reflect the work that Elfman put into making them. To be clear, these are the instrumental tracks, so you're not going to be seeing any of the Oingo Boingo classics appear here.

But they are offering them in three different colors of vinyl, as you can pre-order them now in red, green, and 'Rebel Splatter,' which you can see here. We have more info from the company on the release below, as it will officially drop on June 28, 2026.

Directed by Tim Burton in his feature film debut, the film follows Pee-wee on his wildly eclectic cross-country search for his stolen bike, the Red Rocket.

Oingo Boingo frontman Danny Elfman was brought in to compose the score, and a dream pairing between filmmaker and composer was born. Elfman continued his breakout run a year later with 1986's Back to School, starring renowned funnyman Rodney Dangerfield as a rich businessman who goes to college to inspire his disillusioned student son.

Oingo Boingo performs their hit 'Dead Man's Party' during a fraternity party scene in the film, while Elfman's score perfectly weaves its way through the film's moments of pure jocularity and earnest humanity. The film is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.
