In that case, Vangelis is guilty of what you initially described I believe Titanic is a particular offender too? I'm sure I read somewhere that the OST is more of a collection of concert pieces, and that together with edits and re-scores, most of it it bears almost no resemblance to the actual score.

The poster says the original soundtrack is available on Arista/Legacy Recordings. The CE3K OST was an Arista release, but that company has been defunct for years (merged into Legacy Recordings, Sony's catalog arm). That would indicate a re-issue of Arista's album, hence the shared credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if the new E.T. release is getting the OST remaster treatment then this would might see the same treatment (if not better) as another general TIE- IN release.

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Quoting Jay from the other thread because my reply was more appropriate for this thread. 45 minutes ago, Jay said: I think what annoys me most is that the whole score is so short, he could have easily given us the entire thing plus his repeated music creations and it still would have fit on one disc. Oh well. Matessino to the rescue in another 7 years or so? Hmm, A.I. came out 3 years before the Terminal and that was expanded 2 years ago. I guess MM had a strong sales pitch for that score though (and presumably they paid higher reuse fees being a more recent score). Really though, there's not too much left with Williams/Spielberg scores: Recording sessions leaked: Minority Report, War of the Worlds, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Schindler's List, Sugarland Express Complete expansions: Jaws, Empire of the Sun, 1941, Artificial Intelligence, Jurassic Park, The Lost World Incomplete expansions: Indiana Jones Trilogy (won't happen until Concord's licence expires), E.T., Close Encounters, Hook (won't happen until the Ultimate War tapes are "found") OST complete: Saving Private Ryan OTS only, incomplete: Always, Amistad, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, Munich, Tintin, War Horse, Lincoln, The BFG I doubt we'll see any scores post-Tintin expanded in the foreseeable future, so anything from Always to Munich strikes me as a likely release. All 5 scores are short enough to fit on a single disc. Any score with session leaks could happen too; i just think they'll be lower priority for LLL compared to others.

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Oh wow, didn't even know the sessions had leaked! Always assumed it had an OOP OST and Williams didn't want it re-released. Well, updated the list. That really only leaves 5 Spielberg/Williams scores that MM could work on (short of E.T. or CE3K, but I'm doubtful). I still think Amistad is an obvious candidate; lots of unreleased music, TLW already released from that year and it's the 20th Anniversary.

I just feel they're in slightly lower demand for LLL because they already "exist" in raw form. Make no mistake, they'll all happen eventually, I just think they'd prioritise scores which only exist in OST form. Happy to be proven wrong of course! Session leaks never compare to a properly edited, assembled, mastered and lossless MM release straight from the master tapes! (Sessions are often missing inserts and overdubs anyway). JW also wanted A.I. expanded because he was unhappy about an illegitimate release of that score in the wild, so I could be totally wrong about their priorities. In any event, KOTCS still appears to be under licence, but I could see MR and WOTW happening down the line (not to mention the first two Potter scores, which will almost certainly be bundled with Azkaban).

This year also marks the 40th anniversary of Star Wars, so who knows...
