What about Willow? Isn't that release highly sought after but can't be expanded for some reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundlefly 2,385 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Maybe the creation of the cover took so long, because they didn't know whether to include the slogan "The Deluxe Edition" at the top or not. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow would surely be included, *if* the Lucasfilm vault has been made available. So would all of the Indy scores, Land Before Time, and Star Wars. I would love an expanded Willow!!

phbart 609 Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 I sure hope it's not much longer than 10 years. The CDs (not the box, which is OOP I believe) are still on print on Amazon with the Concord label on the description and the streaming versions (the Spotify ones, at least) have the copyright to "2008 Lucasfilm under exclusive to Concord" where the image cover is the fedora hat similar to the 2008 box and simply "2008 Lucasfilm" where the image cover is the same as the OSTs. The 44.1khz/24bit version of Raiders from HDtracks is credited only to Concord with no mention of Lucasfilm and is dated 2017. I believe there's a Raiders dual vinyl set from Concord too, right?

I'm just going to assume that's correct because they're some of the most beloved JW film scores of all time and we typically can't have those definitively released. So just stick with the versions playing at the wrong speed. On 6/9/2018 at 6:34 AM, bollemanneke said: But compared to TLW, ET wasn't that special... was it?

Omen II 1,235 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Or maybe it will actually be a couple of books instead of CDs! The Boys' Bumper Book of Film Composers Film Composers and Their Amanuenses for You to Color The latter would be LaLa Land's contribution to the current (hopefully short-lived) trend for adult colouring books, published just too late for Christmas.

Still, no point in speculating when the next release will be. La La Land Records statement is true, and when an announcement comes, then it comes. The anxiousness is not needed.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Honestly I’d forgotten that this thread was focused on just LLL. I’ve been thinking of it as a general “Williams releases in 2018” hype thread. Of course Williams releases by any other label had gotten so rare there kinda wasn’t a difference between the two in my mind. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,346 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 2015 brought us Jaws and Jaws 2 from Intrada, and Tom Sawyer from Quartet. 2017 brought us Stanley and Iris and Pete N Tillie from Varese. 2018 has brought us The Cowboys from Varese. Other than that, it's been all La La Land, all the time (Empire of the Sun in 2014, AI, Lost in Space, and Home Alone in 2015, Juassic Park and The Lost World in 2016, ET and CE3K in 2017). I am sure the future will bring more titles from all the labels. Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4,145 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 They are both monumental releases, presenting previously unreleased music in extraordinary sound quality.

That was my point. The Cowboys is absolutely as worthy of attention as scores like ET or Raiders (notice I didn't say "as good as" or "better than", just "as worthy of attention") Holko and Yavar Moradi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
