Pieter Boelen 741 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Does anyone know of an Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade soundtrack in good sound quality? I now have one and the sound quality seems to be pretty much better than on the previous bootleg release. The track order is severely messed up though.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 In what way does it differ in sound quality? It is as good as the official CD, or just slightly less crappy then the bootleg cues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieter Boelen 741 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 I am not exactly the best person to judge the sound quality; I can't really hear the difference between 128 KB/s MP3 and CD-quality audio. But to me the music does sound better. It does seem it is missing at least one track: the Dunn & Duffy Circus Train track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Various bootlegs with variable amount of noise reduction exist. Some boots don't have much hiss but hiss removal induced distortion is horrible.K.M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Ok thank you for the sample Pieter.The music sounds slightly less harsh I guess, but it's very muffled in places and the mix is off, there far more on the right channel then the left.I really doubt this is a new source, someone just tinkered with the bootleg.

King Mark 3,631 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Actually I think it's much more pleasent to listen to.K.M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Perhaps, but it still sounds like rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieter Boelen 741 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 So is it better or not? I can upload it if people want it. It has some tracks missing though: Dunn & Duffy Circus Train, Iskenderun, Der Königgrätzer, Der Königgrätzer (Alternate) and The Birds of Charlegmagne. I only have these tracks in 128 KB/s myself, so I would prefer to replace these with higher bitrate tracks first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I personally do not think it's any better.Did you get these from Goodmusician? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieter Boelen 741 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 No, I didn't. I got them from Soulseek. It would be great if GoodMusician could some day make the best Last Crusade version possible though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I doubt it would sound any better then what you have now. That boot doesn't give you much to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane 1 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Oh, Miguel. That's great. Be sure not to forget me when it's done. With the obvious hope to have a proper release of Last Crusade and Temple of Doom with the release of the IV score...I mean, we got (almost) identical Star Wars release in 1997, 2003 and 2007, can't we just pretend to have one good Indiana Jones release? Raiders' 25th anniversary has come without releases, as ToD's 20th or LC's 15th...If you ask to any long term JW fan (and with "long term" I mean those who were his fans before the Harry Potter era) I bet these 2 scores are the most wanted from the Williams history.Just think about the fact that almost every of his most known masterpieces got an expanded/complete re-release through the years (The Star Wars Original Trilogy plus TPM, Jaws, Superman: The Movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, CEot3K, E.T. and even The Fury, Home Alone 2 and some others...) so it's pretty much a scandal that there are two (out of three!!) Indiana Jones scores which has a badly incomplete official release... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 It's unfortunate, I can't really say it is a scandal.I mean, not compared to the situation in Dafur, or New Orleans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McClane 1 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 What's non-music tragedies has to do with this?However, I really think it's a very negative thing that those scores were never been relased in all of this year.And in general, it's always bad. In this modern day they should do something like this: you buy the usual OST (which is usually very incomplete) and get the special code to legally download (or buy, but with a reasonable price) everything used in the movie that didn't end up on the official CD.It won't solve the piracy problem (as those "extra" tracks would soon end on p2p programs) but it would surely solve the problem of filmmusic fans not having everything the should have.I also never got the copyright thing...if I was a composer, I'd love to decide what music release, and if I want to release it all, I'd like to be able to release it all.I think John Williams knows that there are so many fans that wants these two scores (perhaps alond with expanded Jurassic Park and sequel) but he can't do nothing to release HIS music. I think that after all the times he has been asked about, if it was able to release the music he wants, we may had it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world sucks for this genre of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Andrade 1,273 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 We have ripped the missing track from the Last Crusade, "The Floor is on Fire (Germany declared war on the Jones boys)". There is a bit of sfx on that one, but overall is quiet listenable. PM me or Merkel for the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
