Jay 37,373 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 The Jaws LP is a 100% rerecording made after the main sessions of the actual film cues. The 2000 release of the original film cues on Decca was a 100% previously unreleased CD, even though for some reason Decca used the */** system in the back cover.

Faleel 5,359 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Also, I heard that some cues in the film recordings had some podium changes (dropped instruments etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I got in to Mothersbaugh through his work with Wes Anderson, but I'll never forget discovering his Rugrats work. It must have been sometime in high school, I was half-awake in a daze at like 3am, surfing for something on TV, and I landed on Rugrats. I hadn't watched it since I was a kid and when the Music by Mark Mothersbaugh card popped up I was like "uuhhhhhwhaaaaa." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 That's pretty much what's happening to me now. I used to watch it when it was first on in the early 90s (yeah, I know, I was a bit older than their target audience), but I've just started again due to the younglings and I'm amazed at how good it is - not just the music, but the whole show - and how much of it I remember.

Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I was the target age in the mid 90s but I never liked the show, just didn't click for me. That said, I got into Mothersbaugh many years later through Devo (Devo > Oingo Boingo) and Wes Anderson, but now I can appreciate the quality of his Rugrats underscore. Not quite up there with what Alf Clausen did for The Simpsons, but still, fun stuff.BTW, thought I'd post this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apropros of nothing in particular, is there a version of JB's score for "Boy And Bicycle" available on CD? It's just a marketing thing. The LOTR Complete Recordings are - ESSENTIALLY - the complete score AS HEARD IN THE FILM, with exceptions (ie, Shore trims a few bars here or there, or Shore restores music that was dropped from the film, or Shore replaces a film version of something with a preferred alternate, etc). So what they DON'T include is all of the many many alternates cues that were recorded. Of those alternate versions, many are available on the original OSTs that came out at the time of the films' releases, many are available in the free "Rarities Archive" CD that came with Doug's book, and many other remain unreleased to this day. Does that answer your questions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I haven't listened to the OST albums in ages, but I really should throw them on soon. I always forget that there's quite a difference in some cues/performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I haven't listened to any versions of these scores in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faleel 5,359 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 And of course,the Mordor music during the "But he was destroyed" bit, and a bit of Ent music in the EE scene right before Shadowfax's appearance is not on the CR.My answer is "no, and if there is, it's incredibly unnecessary".If by unnecessary, you mean, "I can live with film edit loops, whole chunks of score being edited out/replaced by music from other cues, instruments and choir dialed out, and themes having cues start halfway through the first phrase of a statement of a theme." then you are absolutely right.More info here: http://www.jwfan.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=23818 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I only meant that the CR's represent such a monumentally complete and satisfying musical journey that it's likely one could, in general, be content to leave all the miscellany/discrepancies in the scores as heard in the films.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I agree. I gave up the hunt for "scraps" of LOTR music after the CR's were released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The Complete Recordings are the versions of the complete scores Shore wanted to release and they are quite brilliant. Some people quibble about the name of the set but complete recordings or score, makes little difference to me at this point. A couple of odd mixing moments aside I have no problems with them. That said there is a good deal (a couple of hours at least) of alternate material to be found on the OST albums and the Rarities Archive and other sources, among them some truly excellent stuff. But it requires some time and patience to compile everything from these diverse sources.Oh and according to Doug Adams all the 3 LotR score sessions together yielded over a month of continuous audio (every take of every cue) and I am sure some fans would be only satisfied with that but I am quite happy with the materials I have got at the moment (from all the diverse sources). CRs are by far the most listened to version of this music I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,552 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thanks eveyone, for all that, and believe me, Incanus, after spending nigh-on $300 for all three boxes, Im happy with what I have got, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
