Eplicon 53 Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 ....The Deluxe Edition (2-disc set) is one of the new albums Varese Sarabande is putting out as part of their club releases!(This was the X-mas surprise they alluded to in their previous announcement?)Oh, well. The current album did leave off many a good cue, but I thought the first movie needed expanding more than the second. Still, I've pre-ordered it. http://www.varesesarabande.com/details.asp...1102%2D1014%2D2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 LOL, I think the mixed reaction on other boards to this news only demonstrates that this release been long -- indeed, too long -- in coming.Myself, I'd prefer a deluxe edition of the first Home Alone score, but I really have no complaints here. I know Ricard's happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker 5 Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 Whoa! Another complete John Williams score! I don't play much Christmas music in my house (being that I don't celebrate Christmas) but the score is the only thing I like about Home Alone 2 so this will definitely be getting some play on my stereo. I just placed my order.Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eplicon 53 Posted November 11, 2002 Author Share Posted November 11, 2002 I never noticed anything wrong with the current Home Alone 2 soundtrack, so I was surprised to find out that a later generation master was used, and at the wrong speed, to boot. What is it, like a semitone off or something? Given how some people were griping on FSM's message board about this being one of the new club releases, suffice to say, I think this title is safe for now....

And with this new edition, it will be the only Home Alone song that has not an orchestral version."you always wanted....", I agree, it's pure marketing (it reminds me of that TPM Ultimate that said "every note JW composed...").

Romão 2,274 Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 I have no chance whatsoever in a near future to buy this release, because I simply can't afford it right now. And since this edition is limited, I suposed it's another JW cd I will have to settle for a copy.Too bad, but life goes on.Romao, who can't even find any of the Home Alone scores around here.
