Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Williams keeps preventing the release of Close Encounters. "The suite on the Boston Pops albums is enough!", he was quoted saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Every score album should just contain a seven minute suite of the orchestral music, plus reinterpretations by prog rock bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amer 2,078 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Great News! La La Land gearing up for another JOHN WILLIAMS title for a possible May release! Here is what LLL post on their Facebook Empire of the Sun message: Did I mention that we are wrapping up another William's expansion now? Artwork goes into the studio for approval shortly. Hopefully by May we will see the final product. I'll say the Gates at Warner bros have been opened let the speculation begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall any missing cues from them.For Accidental Tourist, according to the FSM OST re-release liner notes about 4 minutes, for The Witches of Eastwick around 20 minutes and for JFK some undetermined amount as the film has several Williams composed pieces not on the album.I would not spit in the face of a Harry Potter release but I highly doubt they have gotten that one out of the studio hands.

Williams usually prefers to present the longer pieces from his scores on the soundtrack so a lot of these minute or a bit longer pieces usually do not end on the album (unless spliced together).

Amer 2,078 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 The recent trend of John William expansions from LLL have mostly been Steven Spielberg films.. like the recent, 1941, HOOK and EMPIRE OF THE SUN.. just an observation....what Williams Spielberg scores deserves a proper expansion in your opinion?

King Mark 3,624 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Patriot would have the most unreleased music .No chance of Memoirs or Tintin...too recentWhat's missing from the A.I. 2 c.d. promo? (apart Dr.Know sequence) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,637 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I'll buy any expanded Williams release, but really my interests lie in AI and any music from Star Wars or Indiana Jones which has not been officially released.

King Mark 3,624 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Even if they release A.I. there's no guarantee we'd get the film version of Search for the Blue Fairy. JW might insist on keeping the album version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,249 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 The 1996 and 2002 releases of ET contained film cues only; The original grammy winning LP was full of concert arrangements and alternates, none of which are included on the expanded releases.Additionally, there are some inserts recorded for the film that were not in either the 1996 or 2002 CDSo, we need an ultimate set with the complete film score on disc 1, and the original LP plus additional alternates on disc 2.
