Marian Schedenig 8,211 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I haven't noticed any sound issues either, except in the end credits suite - I'm too lazy to dig out the liner notes, but I expect they were taken from film stems or something. They're just a rather harsh copy & paste suite of film tracks anyway, though the beginning is nice to have because it features the choir bits without the orchestra track and you can hear details in the choir writing that get completely lost in the full mix. The expansion is no revelation though. The album had plenty of filler stuff already, and aside from one or two nice moments, the expansion mostly adds more of that. And the film versions of some cues are also much inferior to the album versions - I'm looking at you, Red Route I. shockwave and Jurassic Shark 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Some outstanding cues in that score though. A. A. Ron and crocodile 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,211 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Definitely. The album version of Red Route I alone makes owning *some* release a must. shockwave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yavar Moradi 2,603 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Red October is one score that's perfect in the film, but outside of obvious musical highlights, doesn't play great in complete form on album. I'm still grateful for the complete release but I edit it down. Yavar Tom Guernsey and shockwave 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,091 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Thanks guys, it seems I'll stick to the OST based on your answers. 1977 and Yavar Moradi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the album and find it a pretty good listen. There's really nothing missing in terms of highlights, although the album does end a bit abruptly. The sound quality is fine to my ears (un-remastered as it is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I never owned the OST, so I felt obligated to buy the expanded version. But it's hardly my favorite or most listened to Poledouris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondheim 1,157 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 The sound quality of the end credits could be better. I wonder why it sounds different than the versions I have seen on DVD and blu-ray. If they took the film stems, wouldn't it figure that the end credits sound as good on this release as they do in the picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shockwave 8 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I think the music sound more vibrant on the dvd release. Red Route 1 sounds more clearer. And I do miss the film version of Kaboom!!!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
