Edmilson 7,473 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I guess they added the "From HBO's Euphoria" for SEO reasons. Fans of the show trying to find this cue won't Google "John Williams The Fury", they'd rather write something like "What is the name of the song from the Euphoria season finale?".

This is absolutely right from an SEO perspective! You know, if this gets someone to fall in love with Williams then bring it on. Besides we can name the tracks whatever we want in our own libraries.

Jay 37,373 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 "album" in the context I used it meant the entire release as a whole, I wasn't talking about just his 1978 album program specifically The release as a whole is a comprehensive and great-sounding release of the music JW recorded for the film as well as the album re-recording he did later all in one great looking package with good notes and Titus art direction DangerMotif 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,141 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 It is great and you should jump on it. Although the seller has 12+ copies, makes me wonder if a reissue is imminent. But this is a prime slice of Williams goodness. Since you’re already a fan of the OST, the film recording has a lot of nice Williamisms of the time. Bits of action music here and there and such. Definitely worth having both recordings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holko 9,531 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 ...so once again they just crapped it on streaming and a few locked/bad platforms leaving me no good way to actually buy it? Fuck these studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,484 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 At the time, a re-recording was pretty common, and it was used for three main reasons : 1) Pass Go and Collect $200 (for the productor/composer and the instrumentists... movie score sessions were not really paying off back then) 2) Allow the composer to record suites he has written to offer a better portait of his score... than the score itself. 3) Pass Go and Collect $200 (Oh, I already said it?)

Marian Schedenig 8,210 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 The LSO musicians recording in London were paid in $? Naïve Old Fart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,553 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 No, they were paid in £ sterling. To add to what Bes has already stated: there are two more reasons why OSTs were often rerecorded. 1/ it was the chance to offer the listing audience improved sound. Imho, both DAMIEN: OMEN II, and CAPRICORN ONE are, both, vastly superior, sonically, to the OSTs, and both are rerecordings. 2/ repeat fees. For an OST to be released, orchestras often demanded up to 100% of the original recording fee. Thus, it was cheaper to rerecord an OST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,210 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Mostly, it came from a time when releasing the full score was is wasn't a thing and (I believe) releasing just bits of it as is and leaving other bits off was also considered an odd idea. And also, medium limitations (like about 20 minutes max. per LP side) had to be taken into account. Rather than microediting parts of a score into a cohesive album experience (which was I imagine much more complex in the earlier analogue days), those few scores that were released were released in album arrangements. The idea of a film music album as a best seller was, I think, born around the time of Laura, when producers realised that they could turn film themes into hit songs. So film music albums were those hit song arrangements, and perhaps some others, and perhaps a few highlights of the original score. Mancini albums (and Williams's original disaster score album versions) are a good example of that. So the idea of the recorded film score being a different entity from a potential album was probably already established when it become more common for actual *scores* to be released as well, and they naturally went ahead with compiling and arranging suites from the full score and recording it for the album. Or at least that's how I imagine it based on my fragmentary knowledge of the history of film scoring and film music releases. Actual insiders might point out that I've got it entirely wrong. 10 minutes ago, Naïve Old Fart said: Imho, both DAMIEN: OMEN II, and CAPRICORN ONE are, both, vastly superior, sonically, to the OSTs, and both are rerecordings. Better performed, too. Probably because they didn't have to bother with the technicalities of recording to picture and having the music sync with it. And the same goes for The Fury.

HunterTech 994 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Funny, because a different listing also sold the release for cheap, but was fully transparent about it being in broken cases. I guess in this instance, the lightweight shipping is more to blame for the damage. In any case, I have been offered the $19 price, so......

Smeltington 1,441 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Album Art Exchange has lots of different covers submitted by users, from all different sources. Sometimes people do a good job cleaning up artwork from the pre-digital era, you could almost call it a "fan edit". Somehow there's stuff on there that doesn't come up in a high-res Google image search. It's a great resource, but unfortunately the owners often block large regions or countries at a time from accessing it. I haven't been able to load the site for months now.
