STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER

Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDMITH

INTRADA MAF 7119

By popular demand, Intrada has re-issued the expanded edition of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, featuring Jerry Goldsmith's colorful and exciting score. As a follow on to his masterpiece score to Star Trek: The Motion Picture, this score takes off where his first score left off. While The Motion Picture allowed Goldsmith to establish themes that would become rooted in the Star Trek franchise, that film required a score of atmosphere and awe -- focusing on the mystery, grandeur, and beauty of space. For Star Trek V, high-adventure was the order of the day, requiring a colorful, exciting, action-packed score.

In 2010 La-La Land Records released a long-awaited 2CD expanded edition of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Their 5,000-copy limited edition sold out in months. While other expanded Star Trek albums were not limited and remain in print, this rapid sellout created a hole in the catalog, so Intrada has decided to put it back in print. The CD program is identical to the already perfect presentation created by La-La Land Records, although packaging has been updated to fit in with the design of the Star Trek II, III, IV and VI packages.

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) was the penultimate film to star the original cast of Star Trek. After Leonard Nimoy (Spock) directed the third and fourth entries in the series, Paramount Pictures awarded Star Trek V to William Shatner (Kirk), whose story input resulted in an action-adventure exploring religious fanaticism, the human yearning for God, and the familial nature of Kirk, Spock and McCoy (DeForest Kelley)­with touches of humor inspired by the commercial success of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986).

STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER (2CD)

Label: Intrada MAF 7119

Date: 1989

Tracks: 42

Time = 131:51

For those that missed spectacular limited 2-CD presentation from La-La Land label, Intrada brings powerhouse Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack back as per desire of licensor to see title remain available in ongoing STAR TREK soundtrack series. William Shatner stars, directs fifth feature installment of legendary series, employs familiar original cast in tale of hostages, quest for meaning in life, other ambitious plot ideas. Goldsmith anchors with famed Enterprise theme but ingeniously focuses on incredibly flexible four-note triad-ish motif that plays in all manner of guise: aggressively bowed in low cellos, tentatively played by upper strings, crisply punched by trumpets, elongated by triumphant French horns, so forth. Rich major-key theme for Kirk ("A Busy Man") adds warmth while pulsating action cues ("Open The Gates", "Raid On Paradise", "Let's Get Out Of Here") excite! Score also makes terrific use of dynamic theme for Klingons, introduced in first feature. Array of alternates plus remastered presentation of original 1989 soundtrack album round out stunning audio treat, mastered from original digital session elements. All musical content plus liner notes by Trek authority Jeff Bond are identical to earlier 2-CD release. New packaging by Joe Sikoryak brings artwork design in keeping with other Intrada/Film Score Monthly STAR TREK releases. Jerry Goldsmith conducts.

So its:

2. Only $25 instead of $30.

3. Got a new spine that lines up with Intrada's 4 and 6, and FSM's 2 and 3. I wonder if the rumored LLL Trek 1 will match?

[scallenger 665]

Will definitely be getting this in the next month or two for sure. It was a mistake for me not to get it before, even when I did have money issues at the time. I'll probably get this at the same time as LLL's rumored ST:TMP. Awesome that it is also 5 dollars cheaper now. I'm not missing out this time.

[stewdog1 50]

Not thrilled that they went unlimited this soon and $5 cheaper to boot.

[JoeinAR 1,957]

24.95 is highway robbery for this score.

[Wojo 2,458]

And what fantastic analogy would you draw for those of us who paid $29.99 the first time around, just because we're Star Trek completists, Goldsmith fanatics, or both?

[Trent B 354]

24.95 is highway robbery for this score.

[JoeinAR 1,957]

sorry Trent, that is way too much for this score, maybe STTMP, but few scores are worth that much to me. I don't pay that for movies why should I pay more for a score. Especially for such a terrible film.

[Wojo 2,458]

A lot of us do have rather expensive scores in our collections that we have permanently detached from the movies in our mind, because the music is so good.

I listened to Cutthroat Island a lot more times than I ever saw the film, which was once, and once too many.

[Nemesis 301]

It's probabely cheaper because they didn't had to mix the masters again.

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

STV is better than TMP.

[crocodile 9,724]

Umm... no.

Karol

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Umm. Yes.

[Trent B 354]

Again, you're wrong. Most people will always choose Star Trek TMP over Star Trek V, including myself.

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

STV is a better listening experience than TMP, there is not one cue I skip.

[Admiral Holdo 16]

Again, you're wrong. Most people will always choose Star Trek TMP over Star Trek V, including myself.

Yeah, see, we call those opinions.

[Wojo 2,458]

Again, you're wrong. Most people will always choose Star Trek TMP over Star Trek V, including myself.

Hmm. I never think to myself, "I want to listen to Star Trek V," but then choose to listen to Star Trek TMP at the last moment. Do you know why? Because then I would never listen to Star Trek V, ever.

[OneBuckFilms 517]

It really depends on my mood as to which one I want to listen to.

Love them both, a lot.

TMP for me, however, has a slight edge.

[Jill Sandwich 11,166]

Both scores are garbage. Horner trumped Goldsmith's drivel out the airlock!

[Hlao-roo 390]

[Richard P 5,303]

You're all wrong. Goldsmith is rubbish.

24.95 is highway robbery for this score.

I'm not a trek fan and I disagree with that. I had the chance to hear this after it was sold out, and after listening to about 4 cues, I immediately regretted dismissing it.

Or, think of it this way: the money Intrada makes from this will help make something happen that you do want to buy,

And: ordered!

[Charlie Brigden 7]

Can someone who gets this do a high-res scan of the artwork? I absolutely loathe the LLL cover.

[crocodile 9,724]

Is this not big enough for you?

Karol

[Charlie Brigden 7]

That is, thanks. But I'd like the inlay and spine as well. Or I may just make it myself.

[Wojo 2,458]

Truthfully, fellas, the whole "wrong opinion" shtick got old fast. Blume did it best and he's not here anymore.

~*~

I dislike the tiny yellow font up top in front of the saucer. It worked on VI's cover because it's over top of black space.

Is your problem with LLR's cover for V the white font that stretches from edge to edge? Really I think we need another poster that isn't so much pink and purple.

[Charlie Brigden 7]

My problem is the whole design looks cheap - and the custom created logo is nigh on the same as a bootleg cover that previously made the rounds. The back cover as well just looks ugly and cheap. I agree on the yellow font, but it's better than the LLL. I had previously assumed the long "Music from the Paramount original motion picture soundtrack" was contractual as it was the same on the original LP, but I guess not.

[Incanus 5,890]

It is a good release when people can't obsess and criticize about anything but the cover art and design.

[crocodile 9,724]

I like pink. The LLL cover looked better to me. Seriously.

Karol

[Incanus 5,890]

As long as the music sounds good I am happy. Not worried about spine colors or design of the booklet. Except if it is a JW release. Then I hold no bars.

[crocodile 9,724]

Me neither to be honest. But, again, I'm really happy for those people who missed it. It's a really great music and great presentation.

Karol

[Jay 46,244]

I have a 1400x1400 version if you want

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Here is my version:

[Admiral Holdo 16]

Well, my LLL sold... $35.99! Not too shabby, just a little above breaking even. Guess I'm obligated to get the Intrada now

[Wojo 2,458]

Who paid $35.99 for a score that's about to go back into circulation, a first-grader? Shit.

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Little thing I just noticed, in the album version of the end credits you can actually hear the Rams Horn/Bird Call effect very faintly at certain points.

It's nice, Fal, but...you versus Bob Peak? Really?

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

I should probably delete that!

[Naïve Old Fart 13,023]

No!!!!!!!!

I like the (magenta, is it?) colour-scheme. Just bear in mind, Fal, that you are up against the single greatest film poster artist, who ever bestrode the face if the Earth (the second is Richard Amstel, and the third is John Alvin).

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Fun fact: a couple patches from the Roland D-50 were used in this score:

 

The falling droplets sound

Sha Ka Ree Choir

 

[Trope 1,449]

Does anybody know why for this score the French horns were recorded/mixed to the right channel, instead of their standard placement to the left?

I've always wondered this but nobody (so far!) seems to know! Very strange...

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Interestingly in TMP they seem to be mixed sonewhat centered on some tracks.

There's some interesting mixing choices in TMP as well, although I haven't yet gone in depth on what they are specifically. I think I remember the end credits having some instrument placements that change throughout the track, although I may be wrong.

I don't really pay attention to instrument placing on CDs, and I'm not very familiar with the standard American orchestra setup. But at least in Europe it's not unusual for the horns to be on the right:

 

[Jurassic Shark 16,430]

Is there any reason to seek out the LLL release instead of the Intrada, apart from the cover design?

[Jill Sandwich 11,166]

I didn't even bother buying the Intrada because the contents and mastering was identical to the LLL that I already owned.
