Lewis also contributed “Back in Time” to the soundtrack (and appeared as a judge during the battle of the bands contest which featured McFly’s rock group). The original Back to the Future album, which came out Jright after the movie hit theaters on July 3, was a hit, spending a total of 19 weeks on the Billboard 200, peaking at #12, in October, producing Huey Lewis and the News’ first chart-topping single, the RIAA-certified gold single, “The Power of Love,” nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song.

The image on Side A is a recreation of the original album cover, while Side B sports a view of the digital clock ticking inside Doc Brown’s time-tripping DeLorean, with the meter set at the current release date, making this a valued collector’s item. Perhaps the best news of all, a 30 th anniversary reissue of the original Back to the Future: Music from the Motion Picture soundtrack will be reissued as a special, double-vinyl picture disc by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) on October 21.
