Henry B 50 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I don't think I could do without "Anything Goes." Apart from that incredible intro, it completely sets the tone for the film, both in its extravagance and lyrical observation (Anything Goes pretty much sums up TOD so much it could be an alternate title). I just love it to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,792 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Last Crusade is the weakest sounding of the three in terms of sound. It sounds like it was performed by a much smaller orchestra at times compared to the first two scores.Is it Williams fault?I recall tha when the blue box was released everything was apologies to thorne for critisizing the scores in that regard so much.Lets see when we have complete scores and remastered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry B 50 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 You're right, Luke. The mix is terrible; however, the performance of the Raiders March lacks energy and strength. No mixing can obscure this fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf 4 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 You're right, Luke. The mix is terrible; however, the performance of the Raiders March lacks energy and strength. No mixing can obscure this fact.Which begs the question why exactly Spielberg has dropped the LSO in recent years - I suppose I can understand him using a studio orchestra for some films, but to drop them entirely? Especially in a score for a blockbuster such as this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSM 126 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Is 77 mins the longest tracklist in the history of JW original soundtrack album releases (so except special editions)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruckhorn 105 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Is 77 mins the longest tracklist in the history of JW original soundtrack album releases (so except special editions)?Are you also excluding the 2-LP releases of Star Wars, Superman, and The Empire Strikes Back? If so, then I believe that this is the longest "regular" release of a JW score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,792 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 We dont have any clue of the score two week before release. Really with SW we had snippets of original music in the TV spots (and there were less spots than this movie!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love 'em!Edit: The beginning of the preview for "Grave Robbers" has a "Lost World"/"Memoirs of a Geisha" sound to it.Edit 2: I've listened to all of them, and my favorites are "The Adventures of Mutt", "The Spell of the Skull", "A Whirl Through Academe", "Ants!" (I especially like this one-although it sounds like something of JW's that I can't put my finger on), and "Departure". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
