I hope you are working on a proper interview with our good friend, Mike Mattessino on the making of this fabulous set ? Because I cant wait to read it already? As for the announcement, My heart skipped a beat when I saw that it looked like a proper expanded JURASSIC PARK and then my jaw dropped when I discovered that it has THE LOST WORLD too. Wow! A 4Cd mega release. Clearly LLL pulled out a super surprise for all us. Cant wait to hear LOST WORLD with all the unrelesed music. One of my most requested Holy Grails too! Amer A. A.

Maybe this has been restored to its original film presentation (I'm assuming they recorded this as it appears in the film) with the long pauses between each impact tremor? And yeah, wouldn't surprise me if there's another 5 seconds at the start of The Falling Car and the end of T-Rex Chase as well, which are both cross-faded into other cues on the existing previous releases. I haven't seen the sheet music though so you definitely have a better idea than I do! My money is on T-Rex Chase having a longer ending, because the OST already contains about 10 seconds of music from The Falling Car that was dialled out in the film. Right on , Crumbs. I think Williams & Shawn Murphy probably stitched the two cues on the 20th Anniversary as an easy listening experience. But I really wanted to hear 'T-Rex Chase' cue track as it appeared in the film. So I'am hoping too that MIke Mattessiono did absolutely the right thing to fix the cue in this chronological sequence and with the correct tremor punctuations, pauses, silence and the more prominent sounding brass note when Ian says '' Iam fairly Alarmed here" Ooh I cant wait..!

Just to echo @azahid, I'd also love to read an interview with Matessino about the set, if you ever had the time or opportunity @Jay! I re-read your interview about A.I. just last night and the insight is brilliant. It's always fascinating to hear how these expansions eventuate, whether LLL approached the Williams/Spielberg camp or if they approached MM after the runaway success of Jurassic World. Whether JW made any requests regarding track order or resisted presenting these scores chronologically, given his diverse OST tracks (I'm thinking CD3 starting with The Lost World was a Williams request). I wonder if there was any unknown music found in the session tapes that surprised MM (The Saboteur?), and how on earth they got Universal's approval to handle such iconic scores on an independent label, especially so soon after they expanded JP themselves. Even the really technical stuff is interesting in these old analogue scores, like how they found the session tapes or what condition they were in (this will be fascinating in the eventual Star Wars remasters, given the tapes are 40 years old and "lost" in the salt mines). From memory Williams had a few different orchestrators on Jurassic Park, and Artie Kane conducted a few cues due to his back issues. Hopefully the liner notes cover those fun little factoids.

I feel the same way here. Insights on making this future well loved box set deserves it. I agree the past relationship that LLL has forged with John Williams/Spielberg and of course Mike Mattessino has certainly paved the way for Universal. An extra support from Williams and Spielberg must have driven through the barriers of Universal to secure such a terrific franchise material. I'am also fairly certain that LLL will eventually continue into this relationship to unearth more projects (Williams and non Williams)..starting with JURASSIC PARK III and JURASSIC WORLD as a part of securing this deal) crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to The Coming Storm again last night and compared it against the movie -- I'm pretty certain the first three notes of the carnivore motif are simply dialled out in the film in favour of silence for Malcolm's line, leaving only the brassy fourth note of the motif in the final film. The 20th Anniversary set restored the complete appearance of the carnivore motif but simultaneously microedited most of the tremor punctuations preceding it, is my guess.

Labels generally expand "old" films scores (by "old", I mean at least 10 years old, if not more). What was the most recent film score a label ever expanded? The most recents I can think of are scores from the beginning of the 2000's. TFA is the most likely I guess, depending on how Disney will deal with SW music releases. LLL won't get to touch Star Wars I don't think, but it's probable Matessino will be nominated by Williams to oversee any Disney commissioned restorations of the OT/PT scores. It's ironic that TFA is the most likely score in the series to be expanded in the next year or so, given how new it is. It's entirely owned by Lucasfilm under Disney, so there's no issues with music rights or licences, barring whatever Fox's ownership of the Force Theme is (given they own the original score for perpetuity). But I predict we'll see TFA expanded long before we see OT restorations or PT special editions, if only because the Sony contract likely has ~3 years to run.

It's niche work and there's too many freelance opportunities with various studios to pigeonhole your career at a single label. Matessino did Jaws and Jaws 2 with Intrada just 12 months ago, six months after doing A.I. with La La Land. As far as I'm concerned, the label is irrelevant (as long as it's an independent label, not one beholden to cost-cutting studio interests) if MM is producing the release. In the last 5 years he's got a flawless track record, giving us one Holy Grail release after another with no stone left unturned.

So Azkaban skyrockets to the top now, if only because we got session leaks for the first two Potters. If this set is any indication, start saving your pennies for all 3 Williams' Potter scores in that inevitable box set; Azkaban won't come by itself and Williams' camp won't want it bundled with another composer's score. After that, surely it has to be Indiana Jones done properly. There's a vibe this release was instigated by the renaissance of the Jurassic Park series; a complete Indiana Jones box set tying in with Indy 5 seems like a no-brainer. Updated versions of E.T. and Close Encounters can wait; all that music is available in some form. Meanwhile, there's a goldmine of unreleased IJ music, and there's a perfect marketing tie-in on the horizon. Honestly, if Matessino doesn't raise the idea first, Spielberg or Williams will. We really are a little spoiled when our most coveted releases are expansions of scores already expanded in the last decade.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to see all Williams/Spielberg scores from the 70s and 80s to have proper restorations and re-releases, the modern technology for restoring session masters is simply too good to pass up in comparison to what was possible in the late 90s. I just reckon the Indiana Jones series is too good to pass up from a marketing perspective, with a fifth film on the horizon. It'll take well over a year to remaster four scores, of which three were analogue recordings. Neither E.T. nor CE3K will require the resources and time that IJ will.

Popular Post Chris ChrusherComix 46 Posted November 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2016 As long-time JWFans know (many probably forgot me), I dust off my old JWFan profile to join in the glee at such glorious releases such as these. And as many remember, while JP complete will be fun but not a hell of a lot of extras. It is TLW complete is what I've always wanted, as it is the most tracked and worst edited John Williams/Spielberg movie - unusual for Spielberg, as he usually trusts Williams' instincts and sometimes edits the score to the music. This was a rare aberration from his usual methods, as the main themes were clumsily tracked into some of the film's highlights and ruined the entire movie, IMO. It's tracked worse than TPM! Had to listen to my old, crude DVD rips to enjoy it, and crude they were. To have it complete and in chronological... outside of truly complete and chronological Star Wars scores, this was up there near the top. Expanded Rescuing Sarah? Any and all missing music in the dino-chase sequences? Ludlow's Demise properly placed? Oh man... this will get a LOT of play! Thank you Michael M., and co.!

This was a dream come true project, certainly one I never thought possible when we started LLL back in 2002. We've come a long way. 2. We hope to release JP 3 at a later date, but thought it was not necessary to include it on this package since, after all, it's called The John Williams Jurassic Park Collection. 3. The price is perfectly acceptable considering its 4 cds. If we released this as 2 cd sets it would have been $29.98. Plus, you know how BLEEPIN expensive it was to produce this?!!!!
