Damo 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I just managed to get this album and the recording of it is pretty good i reckon except for the Star Wars Main title which they have a slower tempo when I first listened to it. The rest seems to pretty good to worth hearing but the Jaws one was kinda weird one. Does anyone have this? If so what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I actually just downloaded this, and the tempo on Superman is so slow! also, is it just my mp3s, or is the recording horribly muffled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damo 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 Somehow I listen to two version of it one from the Greatest Hits Album and from this Giant of Cinema one and I think the tempo is about the same but the version of the superman from Giant of Cinema is missing some cymbals clashes at the start of it.

BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 certain bits are aobut the same, but some parts like the descending brass sections are horribly slowed down on GoC. oddly, the GoC seems to sound worse than the original album too though it might be a poor rip.
