  1. This is an immediate order for me. No familiarity with this score but James Horner’s very first score. i never thought this one would ever see the light.
  2. Sam Smith was fine aside from that annoying falsetto in my view. Radiohead had an interesting take but was rejected for good reason.
  3. The San Smith song has grown on me over time. Given the importance of the song, good or not good. I’d always want it included with the score. You Know My Name was sorely missed from Casino Royale for example. For Bond the opening is always a key musical component to the film.
  4. I'm in the same boat with this one. It sort of works in the film I suspect, but the song really does nothing for me.
  5. I have a compilation of bond songs (50 years 50 tracks set) that includes it, so I used that in my "virtual" playlist.
  6. If you don't have it, get it. It is an EXCELLENT score. Song is not great, but score is.
  7. I don't always read them, but if I have the time I do. Sometimes there is a lot of great insight in a well-written set of liner notes.
  8. Listening to CD 1. Really enjoying this one. It has a kind of swagger to it I really like. Lots of fun.
  9. I find tagging things up in my archive as very zen, and allows me to quickly find the music I want to hear at any point. I'm something of a collector, but I'm not a hoarder, I curate the collection. Broadly, I have a set of rules (guidelines really) when it comes to titles: Only one release of any given score. When possible/practical, ensure I get the definitive / complete version of the score. If there is a previous release, pass it on via a donation or a sale / trade at a used CD store so that another individual can discover the music. If a previous version is signed, treat as an exception. If a previous version contains significant material absent from the new definitive release, treat as an exception.
  10. I think you should just stick to the cue names or track names for the main score. The fact that the album versions or different mixes are in separate albums usually provides differentiating context.
  11. For film scores, I have a general Style I apply to my metadada. Just for a little context, I use Windows Media Player and have it apply folder structuring and naming based on the tags, and use MP3Tag to fine tune the tagging and apply the artwork. I also use it to play back music from my laptop over headphones. For complete score releases, I always name an albul for the film it applies to, and ensure the "Album" contains the complete score from beginning to end, combining multiple disks into the album. I then keep separate albums for different groups of Alternates, named for the film with " - Alternates" and " - Album Versions" depending on what is on the disks. The OST or Original Albums are named "<Film Name> - Original Soundtrack" if present, and I ensure I have the LP or CD album cover (often from SoundtrackCollector.com). When the full score includes "Film Version" etc. I simply have the track title.
  12. Well, order is now "Awaiting Shipment" so they are likely working through them. It's also "Temporarily Out Of Stock" on the website.
  13. This should be shipping soon. Hope my standalone order gets sent out today as scheduled.
