Antonb 118 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 My wife went into HMV store this morning and they said it's not out yet, only in America! I knew this was wrong, so I went into a different HMV store in my dinner hour, and they had about ten stacked on the shelve! Some of these assistents are bloody useless!

Although I read the end credits and it specifically only listed Williams as conductor, so who knows (unless he was listed underneath as "additional conducting" or something).

lairdo 726 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 I received my copy today too (from Amazon). Amazon amazingly did not crush it despite the minimal mailer it came in. While I would prefer a plastic case, I do appreciate how the trifold opens to show Rey and Kylo flanking the CD tray. I do fine the new droids on the booklet cover an odd choice for the final CD from the saga. JJ's story is cute (although so odd he spends 5 paragraphs on Jaws in a Star Wars score). Interestingly, he calls out 3 new themes - We Go Together, Knights of Ren and Anthem of Evil. As always, I love seeing all the musicians who worked on the score, and I was thrilled, but not surprised, to see Gloria Cheng as principal pianist. Luke does not figure in the packaging which I assume is because showing an image of him in the film would reveal a story element of how he appears. (He is in the credits, and all of us knew what to expect but maybe more casual fans did not?) At least Lando & Leia made it in there. No Chewy though. Otherwise, Rey, Finn, Poe and Kylo are the main images as to be expected. Overall, the CD release is about what I expected. It's fine, and I am happy to place it along the other 2 sequel trilogy entries. (I also bought a copy of the Japanese release because that looks so much cooler!) (Edit: Forgot to mention that the US version has a small slip advertising Disney+.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bayesian 1,363 Posted December 21, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2019 Just got home from a holiday party. Massively drunk, sorry. I see an amazon package on my desk, open it, its TROS, I read the liner notes, and all I can say is , JJ you magnificently lucky bastard you got to work with JW TWICE and what I would give for that. What I would give. What I would give just to MEET him once. I don;t care if the movie sucks eggs tomorrow when I see it. I don't care what the critrics or the stupid social media say. I am beyond grateful that all the things aligned that needed to align to allow JW to provide HIS music, HIS own stamp, on ALL of this trilogy, and thus on the ENTIRE skywalker saga, which had all the reasons in the world not to happen. It's a secular miracle that this came to pass. And I will remain eternally grateful . Cerebral Cortex, _deleted_, crumbs and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Funny story. I am listening to RoS and David asks what I am listening too. I tell him and he gets made at me for opening my present early. Oops. Actually I bought it. He thought he knew what to get Joe for Christmas so now he's I have two copies. The rule at my house is Only buys movies and/or soundtracks that I put on my gift list. If it isn't on the list I buy it myself.
