Pellaeon 593 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 The LLL set is expensive and encyclopedic. Here is what was out before then—three soundtrack albums and four suites/re-recordings, probably the way to go for a little light listening! OST 1 Suites 1 Suites 2 Re-recording 1 Re-recording 2 OST 2 OST 3 Alexander Courage The Cage (OST 1) Where No Man Has Gone Before (OST 1) The Naked Time (OST 3) Fred Steiner Charlie X (Re-recording 1) Mudd's Women (Re-recording 1) The Corbomite Maneuver (Re-recording 1) (Best 2) Balance of Terror (Best 2) What Are Little Girls Made Of (Best 2) Mirror, Mirror (Re-recording 2) By Any Other Name (Re-recording 2) Sol Kaplan The Enemy Within (Suites 2) The Doomsday Machine (Re-recording 1) (OST 2) Joseph Mullendore The Conscience of the King (Suites 2) “Theme From Star Trek - Lounge Mix” from The Conscience of the King (Best 2) Gerald Fried Shore Leave (OST 3) Amok Time (OST 2) The Paradise Syndrome (Suites 1) Samuel Matlovsky I, Mudd (Suites 2) Jerry Fielding The Trouble With Tribbles (Re-recording 2) (Best 1) Spectre of the Gun (Suites 2) George Duning Is There in Truth No Beauty?

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 There are two "best of Star Trek" releases by GNP that also have TOS music. The Trible With Tribbles, Corbomite Manuever, Balance Of Terror andWhat are Little Girls Made Of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon 593 Posted June 2, 2018 Author Share Posted June 2, 2018 Thanks! Though I probably wouldn’t bother with the first one (at least not for the TOS content). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Agreed, but I thought the point was to list all TOS releases before the LLL box? Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon 593 Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Absolutely. But in the replies we can make discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yavar Moradi 2,599 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 You guys don't like Fielding's Trouble with Tribbles? I think it's a bunch of fun! I was very glad to have that suite from it before LLL's box rendered it redundant. Of course Fielding's other score for the series was even better.

karelm 2,913 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I find TOS music to be of consistently very high quality and thoroughly enjoy listening to it. Especially the symphonic suites showcasing them in longer form but the music was very high quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I like Dennis McCarthy and Jay Chattaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeinAR 1,949 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 You can just say Star Trek. It has no sub-title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pellaeon 593 Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Good news, everyone! I’ve found another concert arrangement which has been recorded twice, that I know of. It’s called “The Menagerie Suite,” and it’s an arrangement of Alexander Courage’s “The Cage.” Erich Kunzel recorded it with Cincinnati Pops in 1984, and it was again recorded in 2000 by Nic Raine and the City of Prague Philharmonic. Time Warp Space 3 I dug them up the YouTubes, so, check them out. I’ve started the videos after the TOS Title Theme, so you’ll have to go back a bit if you really want to listen to that again. So I did end up buying the LLL TOS set. I mean, let’s be real. There was no point in buying small selections of the original recordings piecemeal, and still end up with something far short of definitive. I’m loving the LLL TOS set, but, I’m still interested in the re-recordings. For one thing, the TV recordings are almost all mono (“The City on the Edge of Forever” is the only one which exists in stereo). And the orchestras were small. And the cues are short. The re-recordings are still perhaps the way to go for an optimal listening experience. Here are some more Youtube videos I’ve found, from Fred Steiner’s re-recordings: Charlie X, by Fred Steiner Mudd's Women, by Fred Steiner The Corbomite Maneuver, by Fred Steiner The Doomsday Machine, by Sol Kaplan Mirror, Mirror, by Fred Steiner The Trouble with Tribbles, by Jerry Fielding By Any Other Name, by Fred Steiner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
