Thor 7,384 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I don't know; I would need to research prices on the secondary market. Maybe something like THE EIGER SANCTION or titles like that, which have had no reissue. Or some old, OOP FSM titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lairdo 725 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 So, assuming I get it - the question is about the most valuable released JW album. Eiger is a good one. Maybe the Sinfonietta for Wind Ensemble? Hard to find on CD from Japan. US LP is more available though. Checkmate/Rhythm in Motion is out of print. I don't see any copies on eBay at the moment, and Amazon shows one for $70 or so - more than Eiger. 1977 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MainTitle 37 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I like to think that over time there have have been some Williams scores that through either us being familiar with them or perhaps later on discovering by sheer accident make them worthy of potential reissue let alone expansion. I'd cite FSMs generally considered superb 3CD edition of "Goodbye Mr. Chips" that MM did back in 2006. I've only seen the movie once thoroughly enjoying it, and had the privilege of hearing the soundtrack just once also but fell short of procuring it at the time for reasons that now elude me. That's one of his works that should have remained in print circulation. Certainly I'd welcome the chance to purchase it for my private collection as a JW aficionado, but definitely not at the exorbitant prices that it seems to command on eBay etc. My general consensus here is that a lot of the maestro's work is released and then gone almost too quickly it seems. This isn't exclusive to JW of course, it happens to all composers, regardless of their popularity. From a historical perspective it's hard for fans to keep up.

The most I would ever be willing to spend on a CD is probably 100 Euro. Over the years, I spent that much (each) on the OST albums of Jaws 2, Dracula, The Poseidon Adventure, and The Eiger Sanction. 1977 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,617 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 It's still frequently cheaper to buy a used CD than to buy a digital album. The latter has never come down in price since digital downloads became a thing. The CD of TLJ that arrived a few days ago cost me £3 new. I'd pay 2-3 times that price for the digital album. For older albums, where you find a marketplace listing for 1p + P&P or a digital download for £, there's no contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Looks like the Indy box set is OOP, although the individual CD reissues are still in print. So I guess disc 5 Interviews and More Music from Indiana Jones is now valuable. It doesn't seem to be streaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
