TownerFan 4,983 Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 At this point, I'd have to imagine the Amazon listing is correct, meaning it contains the 1997 SEs again, and not the original LP configurations.It appears to be so, yes. I got today the press release from Sony's Italy offices and it shows the same track listings as Amazon.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TownerFan 4,983 Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 The rights will revert back to LFL/Disney directly. Then it'll be up to them if re-releasing the six scores through their own label Walt Disney Records, or license them to a third-party label. staccato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Let's hope the Legacy Collection of Disney is an indication of their interest to see the classic film music released, including the Star Wars scores old and new.

And not in the Sony way.Yes, it surely bodes well. Disney doesn't license out soundtrack rights for their own films nowadays (with the exception of some live-action production released under the Touchstone/Hollywood Pictures banner). They have an agreement with Intrada on some catalogue stuff , but that bodes as well, in my book. staccato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,314 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Hopefully the labels attempt a bidding war with Disney over the rights, if for no other reason than to let them know how many companies would love getting their hands on the scores.They'll never give it up to a specialty label considering the size of Disney Records and the brand itself, but it will reinforce the demand. staccato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phbart 609 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 So, are we really paying $230 for 192kHz/24bit masters pressed on vinyls that won't even come close to that resolution or dynamic range? If the current vinyl hype is about the all analog chain, isn't wiser and cheaper to pan for gold on ebay (e.g. look for a good copy of the original vinyls)? staccato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,481 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Paying money for lossy audio files is against my religion!Well that was for me few years ago... but when a CD is only available in the USA, that it cost as much in mail fee to get it that the cost of the CD itself... and when the mp3 on iTunes is at 9,99 $ CAN or less... and that's not a main or major album from the artist I collect (Aznavour, Orbison, Williams, etc)... Well, I fall.For example, last week I bought the Davel Pell compilation "Remembers John Kirby/The Big Small Bands". At 9,99 $ CAN that's not disturbing just to satisfy my curiosity.

Nick1Ø66 4,714 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I'll pass. Even the high res downloads, which might otherwise be worthwhile, hold no interest for me if they're from the 1997 masters. Is there any clarity on this?I'm rather surprised Sony, if they're too lazy to do anything new with the OT, isn't putting out the PT Complete Recordings just to sweeten the deal on this clunker given that this is likely their last shot on making money off these scores. The arm of TPM UE is indeed long if it can still reach us here in 2015.Hopefully Disney will do this right one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phbart 609 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 As I understood, 192kHz/24bit versions will the LP programs. Not sure if they will use the LP masters or if they'll use the 1997 SE masters and edit it to create the LP programs. If the latter is true, I'll pass it too. If not, I have 3 months to decide... staccato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
