I really dislike the trumpet and trombones in that recording. The original recording with the LSO is much better in my opinion.

That album IS the BEST re-recording of a Star Wars score... ever. Get it... NOW! :)

Our fearless webmaster is quite correct. That album is fabulous. The best recordings of "The Imperial March" and "The Asteroid Field", and overall just a great album.

I did notice that a lot of the brass perfromances are squeky. :)

Justin -Who still thinks it's a good re-recording however the LSO is better. :)

I absolutely love how Williams quotes Leia's theme in that piece. :)

I love all of the other Gerhardt recordings (Williams and non-Williams), but I'm still not sure about his take on ESB. Sounds a bit amateurish to my ears. But perhaps I have to listen to it more often and get used to it.

(And I still think the Skywalker Symphony Orchestra album is excellent).

Marian - who prefers Gerhardt's recordings of the other two scores.

Well, I was only comparing it with the other re-recordings, not with the original soundtrack recordings :)

I couldn't disagree more :)

:) Shame on you boy....shame on you. Gerhardts is priceless.

Melange- Who thinks the suites are amazing on Gerhardts.

Asteroid Field is 5 times more powerfull for example. :jump:

Cool, thanks for the confirmation.

I've seen it at the local Barnes and Noble, but I didn't know it had the Han and The Princess concert version on it. I'll probably pick it up on Sunday.
