It will be my one and only SUPERMAN soundtrack untill the day I die. But I did buy the Rhino 2CD at some point, just to see what the big deal was. Loved the "Helicopter Rescue" track of the unreleased cues -- and perhaps one I could include in the already-long Warner Bros programme without losing flow -- but ultimately found that was not enough to keep it. Sold it a few years later. The End. Great story. Thanks for sharing. 😂 1977 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rough cut 1,714 Posted December 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 20, 2018 Superman is one of the best JW scores, I think I’ve bought it in all releases available... sequels as well! This will be phenomenal! Also, I feel that - though good as the Blue Box is - expanded editions has really moved into new territory. La La Land (and Varese) has raised the bar, lead by MM, in terms of presentation, both presentation of audio and packaging. Also... a SUPER cool announcement! Well done LLL! 😊 Dr. Rick, Josh500 and JWMike 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrScratch 294 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 This is a score I never get tired of purchasing. I hope there is some new unreleased track on it that we’ve never heard before, but I’ll still get it either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 No, I don't care about JFK (never heard before, don't own) or Amistad (heard a few times but definitely in my pile of CDs to get rid of. Superman has had an abundance of official releases over the decades, to the point of oversaturation. A new release is unnecessary and non-essential. If it had never been mentioned, nobody would have ever missed it. Entire generations would live and die in complete ignorance of a few missing source tracks, a few minutes of unknown music, re-edits of existing music, alternates, and maybe a better sound quality for people with dogs' ears. But mention a new Superman album coming out, and the people with disposable incomes get super wet at the thought of having this otherwise un-thought of shameful money grab come into their lives. Repackaged, recycled, with a pretty box and a sad story, and you people would buy anything ten times. But Harry Potter expansions are completely essential and welcome, seeing as how we got only one official album for each of the first three, and only two had superior unofficial expanded releases. I probably should have waited ten years for LLL to expand each of these Harry Potter scores to four discs like they inevitably will do.
