Thanks Jason. I really, really, really don't want to do any editing but at least I can make a playlist that's approximate enough.

I am not sure if this has been discussed since the Hook discussion has been going on so strong in several threads but Jason you mentioned that some of the takes on the LLL set are not the film versions, and of course there obviously different takes like the Pirates! (5m6/6m1 Hook's Entrance) with that extra fanfare. Can we say how much of the LLL set is comprised of film takes?
Ars superior est vita hominum.
"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-
I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

I'd love to have the different shorter cues from ULTIMATE WAR I available. I can't stand sections of that cue because the somewhat portentous jauntiness, but so it means a prolonged session with Adobe Audition (with surely questionable results).
You wouldn't see a subtle plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on top of a harpsichord, singing "Subtle Plans Are Here Again."

Great compendium, Jason.
Do you like John Williams? His early work was a little too jazzy for my taste, but when Jaws came out in '75 I really think he came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and an air of consummate professionalism that really gives the pieces a big boost. He's been compared to Jerry Goldsmith but I think John has a far more leitmotif-driven style of composing. In '82 John composed this, E.T., his most accomplished album to date. I think his undisputed masterpiece is "The Magic of Halloween", a theme so catchy most people don't listen to what it means. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of childhood and the importance of friendship, it's also a personal statement about the man himself. Hey Paul!

It's going to take a long time to go through everything. Sometimes the LLL set has the film take and the boots had an alternate one, sometimes its the other way around, etc.

Hi, Jason. Thank you for listing all of the cues. I was just curious to ask you about one of the cues: 5M2 Arrival At Neverland.
Exactly what is this cue?
And what exactly is the last unreleased 20 seconds of 7M4 Enter Rufio?
Also, could you elaborate to me on the missing, unused 20 seconds of 15M2 The End of Hook?

5M2 Arrival At Neverland is unreleased, though.
The revised version is the beginning of Presenting the Hook.
I would like Jason to answer my three questions that I asked him, not to be rude or anything.

Its exactly the same as the revised version you know from the film, OST, LLL, etc.... Just with less music at the beginning and end. You're not missing anything.
And what exactly is the last unreleased 20 seconds of 7M4 Enter Rufio?
Basically just a slower reprise of the ending of the cue as you know it. No biggie.
Also, could you elaborate to me on the missing, unused 20 seconds of 15M2 The End of Hook?
Its a triumphant fanfaric version of the Lost Boys theme. Pretty cool.

Great list and it's really annoying to see how little is missing and how it could have all been on there!
I still don't get why Mr. Williams needed to remove cues and not want the inserts included, doesn't he or people who represent him get it that we want every note he composed regardless of cues being too similiar to eachother because personally I have never cared for album versions I just always want the complete recording sessions.

Basically, no - he doesn't
Williams is very conscious about what gets released, and if an insert was a last minute change and doesn't reflect what he wanted for that scene, or if he feels a track is too repetitive, then he doesn't want it on disc. And as much as I hate people 'sucking up' to famous personalities, saying 'no' to a Williams request is probably not a good way to ensure future releases
It's unfortunate - one of the most desired composers for unreleased music is one of the most undesired for C&C fans when it comes to being involved in the release.

Like with every releas he gets involved in, Williams does it purely to upset KM.
Repeat the JWFan pledge after me: 'I hereby recognise John Towner Williams' place in the world as the great composer there has ever been, and I therefore renounce the works of Rozsa, Korngold, Herrmann, Horner, Kamen, Giacchino (unless the prophecy is fulfilled and he becomes the heir to JTW) and Goldsmith, especially Goldsmith. I understand that if I ever refer to Jurassic Park as anything less than "a masterpiece sixty-five million years in the making" I will be resigned to living out my days at the Zimmershrine.'

Then he must hate the original version of the AOTC finale... and other inserts and revisions that ended in his OSTs...

Form Rank also comes in too early.
Actually, "Form Ranks" is edited perfectly on the La La Land album and comes in a half a beat too late on the OST

Yea, I should have clarified that Form Rank comes in early when compared to the OST. It comes in on the LLL CD exactly the way it does in the film itself.

All the cues for "The Ultimate War" how they are transitioned on the LLL set matches EXACTLY like in the film.
I know because I did a comparison of the two. I used the RL and RR channels from the DVD since that had no sfx. So the LLL set is right as far as transitions go.

You're missing the point. I agree Williams INTENDED his music to sync perfectly to the cut of the film he saw.
What I am saying is that the final film does not always match the composer's intentions.

Finally got it today, actually held off from downloading but am pretty suprised by ultimate war, mainly the bit when pan first appears seems faster and completely different to the OST as well ofcourse all the different edits. So where exactly is that ultimate war material from compared to the OST?

First of all, Jason, thanks so much for your editing guide. I've been using it a lot over the past few days to put together my own assembly. It's so generous of you take the time and trouble to do this for us.
Second: WOW. I lack some of the tinier pieces of the puzzle needed to make a definitive rendering (if there is such a thing), but having fitted what I can together it's close enough - and what was already one of my favourite JW scores has stepped up several places in my list. To experience the (almost) complete tapestry unfolding at last is stunning. In particular the whole Ultimate War sequence; on the OST it wasn't one of my favourite tracks - I found it bombastic and abrupt. But with its missing sections restored (with the horrid volume dips and peaks levelled out - I've spent quite a bit of time on that), and in the context of the sweep of the whole score, it suddenly makes complete sense. It's a thing of wonder - such invention, and detail, and colour, and verve - it's joyous.
Right now, I'm a very happy man.

How did you level the volume dips? This was the most disappointing thing about this release. That the second half of the Ultimate War was taken from the film stems.
Also, if you could level out the dips, why didn't La La Land do the same when they mastered it?

Many have wondered this. I think had Mike Matessino worked on it, he would have attempted to level everything out.
