They're not italics! (These are…)

Well then… re-record the whole score if you have to.…

Yes. The reasoning is the same as with classical music: It's the year the music was recorded/produced that counts (classical albums often have recording dates in one year but a production date in the next year, because that's when the post production was finished (I suppose). So film year for the original recording (whenever released), and re-recording year for re-recordings. Otherwise I'd have to research when the music was actually *composed*, and also put the composition year for all classical albums - never mind the headache of trying to tag rock albums that contains songs written earlier. Yes. Yes.

As a bonus track on one of the Leigh Phillips re-recording albums, maybe/hopefully.

For me: Album artist / album name / disc - track - track name.flac Some of my early rips put different discs from multi-disc albums in different directories, and I'm annoyed whenever I encounter one of them.

Artist = composer. Unfortunately. I think the player I use at home could use the composer tag instead of the artist tag, but most other software can't, and there's no standard album composer tag (as far as I know), and also… if I tag a Beethoven symphony with composer = Beethoven, artist = Karajan and a Beatles song with composer = Lennon/McCartney, artist = Beatles, I'd want to have my default view to list the classical album under the composer but the rock album under the artist, and I know no player that does that. So yes, the whole system is flawed, and *some* compromises have to me made. I therefore usually tag the composer as artist and composer for classical/soundtracks, but the band/performer as artist and the actual composer as composer for rock stuff - if I'm not too lazy. I used to put all the individual performers in the comments section (that would allow me to filter by singer even with e.g. opera recordings that have 20+ individual artists), but unfortunately I got too lazy for that years ago. I do put the conductor (and if necessary the orchestra or the year) in the title for classical pieces, because it makes at least viewing and filtering easy, and I never want to sort by that info anyway.

My player/collection manager presents my albums in a tree that can be configured in many different ways. I always stick to the default - artist by alphabet on the first level, then albums by alphabet (excluding articles and the like). But it's easy to change the sorting to e.g. chronological, or albums or genres on the top level, or to filter by genre (but not enough of my albums have the genre tagged correctly for that to be of any use). Listing, sorting, and filtering should be handled by the player software so you don't have to compromise by mis-tagging your files.

"Assemble the Minion!"… Official April Fools' from LEGO: https://www.lego.com/en-at/themes/despicableme/about The overall idea isn't anything special, but the execution is wonderful.

What do you mean?

Oh, right… No digital tier, how odd. That's so uncommon I never even noticed. It does make me wonder how much money goes into providing physical copies to people who don't even want them.

You are free to pledge any amount of money at or above your selected pledge level. I haven't checked, but I'm sure you can also lower your pledge level while the campaign is running. If you've currently backed at a physical level, but don't actually want a physical CD, I imagine you can lower your pledge level to a digital tier and leave your pledge amount as it is. Personally, I selected the $50 level with my name in the booklet, not because my name is worth the extra $20 to me but because I figured the campaign needs the money.

Good idea. I'm almost exactly four lines above you.

Why would you put the composer in the title? Pretty much every player in existence can use at least the artist tag for sorting and display along with the album and track title. Having the composer/artist in the title is redundant and screws up sorting.

The interesting thing about The Enterprise is… as one of the earlier Goldsmith cues that made a strong impression on me, and because of its classic, hummable theme, it always felt very traditionally Romantic to me. Unless I got the Omni score and read along with it and suddenly heard how strikingly modern it actually is.

Oh, it's that guy again. He keeps posting pictures of by butt on the internet…

Star Wars is one of Disney's biggest franchises now, even if they didn't originate it. Regardless of whether you agree with them considering it their own (technically at least it is), at least they're consistent by honouring the people who made it what it is.

I hope they play the Cantina Band cues once in a while.

"¿Dónde está la zapatería?"

I see you almost got a butt seat again.

"I gotta stab her three times?"

"How about you, Jimmie? You an oak man?"

Disappointing that I can find hardly any stills from this on the net. Slocombe's cinematography is stunning.
