mxsch 115 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Erich Kunzel re-rec. from 1997 credits Silvestri. Was it supposed for De Palma movie? Or is it even true that this is his arrangement? Because you can check some tracks from leaked unused Silvestri score. I can actually see it coming from him, because it sounds very much like Silvestri's signature sound. Even if it's not, by far best rendition I've ever heard. Update: it's him. There is shorter version on bootleg and it repeats orchestration of this version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,495 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Yes, the rejected score has been floating around in bootleg land for two decades now. Some parts of it actually ended up in Silvestri's ERASER. I've always kinda liked it. It's lean and mean. As for theme variations, I do think the Mullen/Clayton version that ended up in the film is one of the best out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,070 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Joe Kraemer's is the best take om the MI theme to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,353 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Silvestri's arrangement was also re-recorded by Joel McNeely for the Hollywood '96 CD Varese Sarabande put out https://www.discogs.com/Joel-McNeely-Royal-Scottish-National-Orchestra-Hollywood-96/release/12126499 https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B000001501 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I've always love his version of the main theme and the plot theme heard in this track: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,353 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 If anyone likes "The Plot" theme, I made a post showcasing how Elfman, Giacchino, and Kraemer each worked with it here: https://www.jwfan.com/forums/index.php?/topic/31267-lorne-balfes-black-widow-2020-desplat-replaced/&do=findComment&comment=1705093 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had that compilation once upon a time. Don't know what happened to it, if I sold it or what. It was quite good. Maybe it got away because I got all the titles featured there on their own soundtrack albums instead. I remember it caused a bit of a fuss, due to the cover art, which was deemed one of the worst of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some bootlegs must include it as a bonus track or something.

Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 As far as I know, Lalo's theme is not part at all of Silvestri's score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony 572 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Oh how I wish someone would use that B section in one of the film scores (3:28 onwards). That would be kick-ass during an action sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,353 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Is that section something Schifrin came up during his work on the original series, or a later embellishment by an arranger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
