ADigitalMan 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 The real gem that almost everybody wants loud and clear is a UE for AOTC and ROTS. That is the biggest selling point a set like this could have.I kind of have to disagree with this a bit. What most people want these days for all three prequels especially AOTC and ROTS is the complete intended edition, not a chopped up Phantom Menace duplicate ... or duplicates in this case.I hate to say but Steef might be correct that this set could be the Original Trilogy and Phantom Menace "Ultimate Edition" repacked in a box set. As I said earlier I'll be ponying up for this set to see what it's about.I apologize. This is what I meant by UE ... a complete score, not a digital lift of Burtt's edits. Given the feelings towards the TPM UE, calling a complete score a "UE" will naturally bring up distaste and confusion. That said, I suspect Lucasfilm would see the TPM UE as complete and therefore be less likely to release a third TPM soundtrack, compared to AOTC and ROTS.Which brings me to a question: The alleged UE of AOTC that is claimed to be complete ... what is that? Is it like TPM UE or is it a true complete score? Does anybody actually know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're active and not apathetic, you can actually effect change. But if you're resigned to defeat and only wish to complain to other like-minded dudes on the Web, well, here you are.So if emails are not enough, what could we send Sony Classical in protest to get a better release? There are those DVDs of the Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition, of course. But perhaps something more head-scratching. Like woolen blankets, to use GM's description of ROTJ's sound. If they received tons of woolen blankets, they'd likely turn around and donate them to some type of homeless mission, which would double the "good" that could be gained from sending them.

GoodMusician 56 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I sent them this lol:As an avid John Williams fan and a fan of the Star Wars saga, I have to say this:We need a proper release of the complete scores. Sony has said before that they have no plans to release the complete scores to the prequel trilogy and no plans seem to be made to fix the Original Trilogy.I formally would like to state that if Sony made a proper release, then people WILL buy the sets.The Ultimate Edition for Episode I was not the complete score as it was marketed to be. Instead, it was (to my knowledge) the only time a score has been released edited to show what it sounded like in the film, and NOT the composers original intention. Because of this, most fans were angry and decided against buying it.If it were released in complete form (at least 3 CD's), this would be a top seller guaranteed. The other Prequel scores also need a complete release.As for the original trilogy, the currently available scores for Empire and Jedi are very poor in quality. One only need but compare a few Jedi tracks to A New Hope to hear how poor they sound, despite the fact they were recording nearly 10 years latter with far better equipment and funding. Empire was also improperly mixed by Risner. Every track he mixed he flipped the Horn Channels, mixed the harp too close to the center along with percussion and celesta and made the overall mix almost Mono, removing the surround sound aspect to John Williams orchestrations and removing the power from "The Imperial March."For a definitive release, these errors are inexcusable. Also, the amount of material omitted from these "definitive releases" is staggering. With the re-discovery of better Jedi masters, a new release including the COMPLETE scores, mixed properly, is in order.I have made an outline of every error in the Empire and Jedi Sets:Empire- Disc 1/Track 1 - Mixed by Risner (too narrow)Empire- Disc 1/ Track 2 - Mixed by Risner so the horn channels are flippedEmpire - Disc 1/Track 3 - The synth is improperly mixed causing digital noiseEmpire - Disc 1/Track 4 - This track could be cleaned upEmpire - Disc 1/Track 5 - Imperial Walkers to the end is mixed by Risner far too narrowly, horn channels are flipped, and the overall sound is poorEmpire - Disc 1/Track 6 - Mixed by Risner (too narrow, horn channels fliped)Empire - Disc 1/Track 8 - Mixed by Risner (" ")Empire - Disc 1/Track 9 - Mixed by Risner (" ") Harp is incorrectly in the centerEmpire - Disc 1/Track 10 - Jedi Master Revealed mixed by Risner (" ") Harp incorrectly in CenterEmpire - Disc 1/Track 11 - Mixed by Risner (" ") Harp in center as is the celesta Empire - Disc 2/Track 1 - Mixed by Risner. (" ") The poorest mix ever released of this powerhouse piece. (Horns Flipped)Empire - Disc 2/Track 2 - Mixed by Risner (" ") The poorest mix ever of this piece (Horns Flipped)Empire - Disc 2/Track 4 - Mixed by Risner (too narrow, with harp incorrectly in the center with the celesta. Horn channels flipped)Empire - Disc 2/Track 5 - The whole mix of this track is a bit off but the "City in the Clouds" portion mixed by Risner is horrible, with horns flipped, the choir far too loud and the harp in the center Empire - Disc 2/Track 6 - Mixed by Risner (" ")Empire - Disc 2/Track 10 - Mixed by Risner (" ")Empire - Disc 2/Track 11 - "Hyperspace" is mixed by Risner so narrowly that the strings are almost mono, the horns are flipped, and the effect of the cue is lost completely.Empire - Disc 2/ Track 12 - Mixed by Risner (" ")Also, the alternate for both cues on track 12 ("Finale" and "End Credits" are ignored and not placed on the set).----Errors from Return of the Jedi:The entire score sounds muffled. This is in part due to the fact that the original masters for most of the score could not be located. They have seen been found and a corrected release is in order. Rather than list every cue, just know that every cue has the ability to be remixed from better quality masters and should be done so since the mix is so poor on the release that almost every cue sounds muffled, lost, and muddy.Also, an extensive search into where the still missing material is should be conducted.The material missing from the SE includes:Jabba the Hutt Concert Suite - Original Album Recording SessionLapti Nek - FilmLapti Nek - Film InstrumentalLapti Nek - AlbumLapti Nek - Extended AlbumLapti Nek - Album instrumentalLapti Nek - EnglsihMax Rebo Band Song 1 Max Rebo Band Song 2Unknown Joseph Williams Unused Source CueThe Forest Battle InsertYub Nub (Choir)Yub Nub (Ewok)Yub Nub (Film)Victory Celebration (Film)Leia's News (Alternate)The correct takes for cues such as "Superstructure Chase" should also be used in the mix as the one on the SE is not the correct take or is an incorrectly edited version of this cue.Thank you for taking the time to look at my request. I realize there is a 30th anniversary set being released, and from the rumors I'm hearing, it will simply be a repackaging of the already available SE's which as I have shown here, need to be addressed.Thank you and I would love to hear back from you-Bernard Kyer (21, Florida) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say even the casual listener doesn't need those anymore.I understand your points, but this is just the norm for big record companies: repackaging and re-releasing is one of their well-known tactics to generate new revenues without spending too much money. Sony has a very long history in this field: look at their classical music catalogue or even at the various "Deluxe Editions" of historical rock & pop albums.

indy4 155 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Heads up!http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/post...1&archive=0From Musictap.com:Sony Classical will celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars by releasing several versions of a Star Wars Anniversary collection that includes a single-disc John Williams ‘best of’ grouping of 13 tracks from all 6 Star Wars films and will be called Star Wars: The Corellian Edition. The other version is a Box set containing 8CDs of Star Wars scores including 2CD Expanded Editions of A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and The Return of the Jedi. Each episode CD will be contained in a gate-fold mini-jackets that are exact replicas of the original LP sleeves. The 30th Anniversary Collector’s Edition 8CD Box will also contain a fold-out poster created specifically for this set, historical notes of the creation of the soundtracks, and 4”x4” four-colour stickers. Whatever your desire is, the Star Wars collection is coming to a galaxy near you (sorry I said that.) The Box arrives on October 8 whilst the single disc Corellian Edition arrives on October 2.After this is released, Sony is going to need a new "disguise". To anyone who e-mailed Sony, tell me if you get a response!While I am not going to waste my money on any of these sets (unless the remaining 2 discs are must-haves), I would be interested to see a track listing of the Corellian Edition, and see which cues JW likes the best.What a dissapointment...major let down. I wish in general, label companies would stop releasing already released stuff, when they could be releasing new material!! (e.g. Star Wars prequels, Family Plot....)I want to encourage everybody on this board to sent a letter. You've got nothing to loose, and the more, the merrier.Here's my letter:I am sending this e-mail in regards to your "Music of Star Wars 30th Anniversary Collector's Edition." While I appreciate all you're doing and all you've done, I will be among the many people who does not buy this product. It is a waste of hope and money for all those Star Wars/soundtrack fans who already own the Star Wars soundtracks. What really is in dire need of a release is the 2 other prequel scores, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith (mainly Revenge of the Sith). Both of those items would be immensly popular to fans of Star Wars, soundtracks, and John Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I don't think pointing out the mixing flaws in Empire Strikes Back and missing Laptin Nek versions in Return of the Jedi helps at all.What's the friggen obsession with Lapti Nek some people have?I've listened to this track exactly once on the 1983 OST.It's also one of the worst Williams compositions of all time .Return of the Jedi needs a complete remastering not just flipping horns around in one cue.What we need is Attack of the clones and Revenge of the Sith expanded,that's the least they could do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodMusician 56 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 My point in including all the errors wasn't so much that they'd read them, but that anyone seeing the letter would realize that the sets are so far from perfect that they require some sort of attention.I wasn't necessarily asking for much. They digital transfers exist. They need but remix them. And with Return of the Jedi, better masters are available and so while they're remixing Empire, they can do Jedi... and also do a search for the still missing masters which would be an EXCELLENT selling point for any re-release.I only really included it to make a point: they are so far from perfect that they do not deserve the name Definative Releases.As for linking to my work, please dont! lol...I'm not sure showing them that will do much more than earn me an email saying to remove them lol...
