In November 2009, Intrada released an official two-disc album containing Silvestri's complete score. The first disc contained the complete orchestral score as recorded for the finished film, along with two source cues that Silvestri wrote. The second disc consisted of alternate approaches that Silvestri took with a large portion of the score, with a darker, more serious tone.
None of the songs from the first album are included in this score-only album, and for moments in the film where Silvestri's score was shortened (i.e. the final moments of "Einstein Disintegrated" and "Peabody Barn; Marty Ditches DeLorean") or replaced with source music ("Town Square"), the full score cue is presented as originally recorded.
The set was a limited edition of 10,000 units and sold nearly 6,000 by the end of January 2010. As of January 2013, the set is still available from Intrada.
