I had this exact thought but would never have executed it so well.

Yeah what was with that shit? Sony must have hired a new art direction team sometime between 2002 and 2005, because a lot of Sony CD releases all conformed to a unified house style round about 2004 that I noticed with Spider-Man 2, then the same spine font showed up in The Legend of Zorro in 2005.

 

They probably got a font discount.

Wow, great news that the digital OST is releasing Wednesday December 18th.  That means we have less than 120 hours until the final John Williams Star Wars album is out in New Zealand and Australia, which let's face is is when most of us will begin listening to it!  Wow!

[BuzzLightyear 143]

Finally!!! 

[Alex 2,919]

Still no info on track titles/times?

I wonder if they're trying to avoid a Qui-Gon's Noble End situation.

[Jay 41,648]

No but it could happen at any time now.

 

For TFA, we got the titles 22 days before release; For TLJ, 9 days before release.

Today is 8 days before the TROS physical release, and 6 days before the digital release.

So to summarize:

 

TFA in 2015: OST released Friday, December 18th.  OST preorders began Friday September 4th (3 1/2 months early), track list revealed Thursday November 26th (22 days early), audio leaked Tuesday December 15th (3 days early).

 

TLJ in 2017: OST released Friday, December 15th.  OST preorders began Friday September 1st (3 1/2 months early), track list revealed Wednesday December 6th (9 days early), audio leaked Monday December 11th (4 days early)

 

TROS in 2019: OST slotted to be released Friday, December 20th.  OST preorders began Friday November 22nd (1 month early), track list yet to be revealed.  As of now we are 16 days from release date.

 

[Disco Stu 15,508]

The tracklist for TLJ was from some employee unpacking a box at like Best Buy or something wasn't it?

[Jay 41,648]

Target, yea.

[Disco Stu 15,508]

Hilarious!  You just never know where these things might come from or when.  Keep your eyes peeled on /r/StarWarsLeaks, I guess.

[Taikomochi 1,319]

I suspect this album was put together far later than the other two, hence the limited info.

[Jay 41,648]

I'm not sure what you mean.  Disney didn't officially tell us the TLJ track titles before release at all.  We only learned them because someone who worked at Target was nice enough to open a copy early.

[Taikomochi 1,319]

Well, the limited information on shipping on Amazon, whereas last time I’m pretty sure it had a shipping date listed by now, plus the lack of cover art until yesterday plus the lack of any type of leaks of track titles makes me think maybe the album was assembled later in the process than the preceding two films. I don’t know - did Williams do sessions as late on the last two films as he did this time?  I didn’t say I knew for sure, just a suspicion. 

[Jay 41,648]

The recording sessions went later into the year for TROS than they did for TLJ and TFA, for sure.

 

I'm not sure I understand the Amazon part of your post.  They deliver new CDs on release date.  It'll be in your mailbox on Friday the 20th.

 

As for titles, again Disney never announced the TLJ titles either.

As for leaks, people can't open up a copy at Target if Target hasn't received them yet to be opened.

Well, glad it’s updated now then. Never mind in that point.

Just checking, as someone who also pre-ordered the TLJ OST but then it didn't arrive until a week and a half after the release date—is this what everyone's Amazon order currently looks like? I mean as far as the "delivery estimate" bit goes. I really need this to arrive on the release date, this time around; I'm flying on the 21st.

 

 

 

Anyway, why is mine a dollar more than yours!

 

[Taikomochi 1,319]

Actually, mine still says delivery date pending despite being ordered as soon as the pre order went up on Amazon. Hmmmmmm.

 

The fact that the preorder didn’t go up till later is also what I was thinking of.

[Jay 41,648]

The real question is when will @AzOutcast wander over to Epcot to see if they are selling it early?

[petek66 27]

"This experience has been one of the highlights of my professional life, bringing me so much joy in working with some of the world's greatest orchestras and musicians. I stand before the now completed nine Star Wars films with pride and gratitude for the gift of this extraordinary journey." 

 

OK, I'm ready anytime to see a picture of John Williams standing next to a shelf with his 9 bound scores lined up. Or maybe he should wait and bookend them with Oscars...

[King Mark 3,805]

I only have one certain prediction about the OST:

 

The best rendition of the new Farewell Theme will be unreleased or microedited out.

 

And the Finale will be fucked up like RotS missing Padme's Funeral and other music and HPSS missing Griffindor Wins

[Giftheck 1,070]

I want that foreboding Emperor's Theme that was on today's preview clip. It's like Palpatine's TV Set mixed in with Palpatine's Seduction, dialled up quite a bit.

[Tom 5,408]

edit

[Giftheck 1,070]

I think this would also be a great place, if he ever did contemplate it, to do a suite based on the Emperor's Theme.

[Jay 41,648]

Let's avoid discussing anything about the FYC including track titles in this thread for now, so people who are avoiding that can still safely read this thread

While the release of the digital copy two days earlier probably doesn't require such a close eye on a physical release, the moment I hear that it MIGHT be available there, I'll drive over in a bmmm-tssss.

 

Joke's on you though, as I live on Spaceship Earth. At the top. And nobody knows I live there. And there's a button that I can press and launch that ride into space.

Right? There are like 10 TROS threads at this point. I don't even pay attention to which one I'm in anymore.

I used to use Fishpond, but it's not what it used to be. I remember using it just fine about a year ago but family and friends who've used it have had problems galore with them which is strange.

 

 

I still use it a lot, but only to buy books and CDs. Never had a problem, but that doesn't mean to say there aren't problems. Maybe it could depend on from where the stock comes or the type of item being bought

Indeed that's a very interesting question! Why, now? 

 

It's not even like some other countries, like the UK, Germany, or France, have their own versions. It's always (or most times) one cover for Japan, and another one for the rest of the world... 

 

They should make the Japanese cover the international version!

Excerpt from the Japanese page where the images were originally posted (Google translate 😁):

 

Quote

One piece that contains the score in the play that colors the completion of the magnificent saga with music. When I interviewed JJ Abrams who came to Japan for the promotion (performed on the 11th), he was acclaimed , "There are new themes, and John Williams is a wonderful work beyond John Williams." .

As a matter of fact, I do know a bit of Japanese - I studied the language for a few years in university (I've also been to Tokyo). This section says, as far as I can tell,

 

"This album contains the highlights of the score that gives the ending of the magnificent saga its vitality (or "colour"). When I interviewed JJ Abrams who came to Japan for the promotion (interview took place on the 11th), he was raving: "While there are new themes, John Williams is being his usual old self, and then some."

I was editing the comment. 😂 

 

But yeah, I agree. It's good! 

[1977 1,752]

"John Williams is a wonderful work beyond John Williams."

 

I couldn't agree more!

I liked the Google translation better.

[Josh500 1,618]

For English speakers, Japanese is one of the toughest languages in the world! Even Google can't quite make sense of it, sometimes.
