Bespin 8,480 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Heidi would have made mine too, but I didn't participate in the Top 10, as I don't know all the pre-Jaws material.One thing is sure, Images would not have been there!

Incanus 5,713 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 If I remember correctly Images was first time officially released in 2007. The earlier incarnations of the album were a pressing of promotional FYC LP which was never available commercially. Those other versions listed above are most likely bootlegs.And it is a weird but wonderful score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 It's brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,713 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 It's brilliant!The Killing of Marcel is my favourite track.Johnny should have experimented some more as he produced some cool unusual things when pushed to that direction.

Bespin 8,480 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 I don't want bootlegs in my disco, only official releases and promo.Thanks Incanus.Any one else confirm that about Images? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 As far as I'm aware the Prometheus CD is the only legit release of this score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,323 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Correct.Williams arranged an album presentation of the score back in the day, but it was never released. It was only sent to academy members for them to possibly vote for it for Best Original Score of that year. It was a promotional LP, not a commercial LP.All "releases" of it after then, before 2007, were illegal bootlegs.In 2007, Prometheus released the first legal commercial version of the score.

If it's the case I want to keep it.A promo album is an officially made object, but with a restrained distribution. But it's "collectible" and generally of good quality.

Jay 37,323 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 LOLof course not!They probably pressed maybe 40 copies to send to academy members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,480 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 This page seems to give the "Promo" credit to the Hemdale Music/BMI LP.Seems a legit label.http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=504269 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,323 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 That's probably legit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,480 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 That's probably legit!So it seems to be our Promo LP. I corrected my post and I will adjust my website tonight, I will erase the other LP that was issued on Classic International Film, which appears to be a real bootleg pressed presumably from the promo LP.

Thor 7,478 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 The original IMAGES promo is the one with the white cover posted above. Anything with artwork beyond that is a bootleg. Bespin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,478 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 What you have is not the original album that was sent out to Academy members in 1972, Stempel (unless they made different versions), but it probably makes no difference. At least yours has a better cover! And it's the same music on it. Bespin and Stempel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
