Popular Post Jay 19474 Posted September 3, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2020 As you can see, all Williams scores that had an OST album to begin with [barring the Varese trilogy] require a license from one of just FOUR major music labels that have absorbed up the almost 20 different smaller labels that put out various Williams OSTs over the years - Disney Records (the only one still owned by a conglomerate that also owns a film studio), Sony Music (still a part of overall Sony but has to approve expansion of titles they released separately from the film studio arm approval), Universal Music Enterprises (no relation to Universal Pictures), and Warner Music Group (no relation to Warner Brothers Pictures). To make any of these expansions happen, that music label has to be open for business (granting licenses, approving artwork, signing off on releases), and its associated film studio has to to the same (granting licenses, procuring elements from their vaults, signing off on releases) It's a tricky business and I'm glad I don't have to be the one to negotiate these things! bollemanneke, Holko, Smaug The Iron and 2 others 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites

crumbs 8942 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Damn, so LLL probably wouldn't get The Patriot due to the Disney factor. Well, fingers crossed Intrada still have a few releases to come this year, would be another missed anniversary otherwise. Edmilson 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Pre-fee increase, unexpanded Williams scores with a -0 or -5 anniversary in 2020: The Eiger Sanction (45th anniversary, Universal / UME) SpaceCamp (35th anniversary, Disney / Sony) Presumed Innocent (30th anniversary, Warner Brothers / Varese) Sabrina (25th anniversary, Paramount / UME) Nixon (25th anniversary, Disney / Disney) The Patriot (20th anniversary, Sony / Disney) War of the Worlds (15th anniversary, Paramount / UME) Link to post Share on other sites
crumbs 8942 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Well if MV's comment about trying to make an anniversary was related to a Williams release, and considering their strong ties with Universal, The Eiger Sanction seems like a shoe-in for October or Black Friday. Don't see much of an appetite for an expanded Sabrina or Presumed Innocent (not to mention the issues labels are now having with management at WB). Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 They're having issues with Warner Music Group, not Warner Brothers Pictures. There's no relation between the two entities Oops! I flip-flopped this, is is Warner Pictures that is the issue, not Warner Music. Apologies. ~ 2021 anniversaries: Fiddler on the Roof (50th anniversary, MGM / UME) JFK (30th anniversary, Warner Bros / WMG) Hook (30th anniversary, Sony / Sony) Sleepers (25th anniversary, Warner Bros / UME) Link to post Share on other sites

There's no relation between the two entities Thanks for clarifying. Still doubt there's an expansion for Presumed Innocent in the works though (don't have the faintest idea what's unreleased) but I guess Varese would be happy to expand any Williams scores they partially own. If Warner Music Group are being problematic, that puts HP4 and HP5 on ice as their OSTs belong to Warner Brothers Records (parent company is Warner Music Group). Ironically HP6/HP7/HP8 wouldn't be an issue as those OSTs belong to WaterTower music, which isn't a subsidiary of WMG (thus theoretically easier to license). So a Desplat box isn't out of the question, even if it means skipping the scores in between. Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I don't think any issues they are having are permanent, just temporary. Sony Music briefly cut off licensing, but MV has said they are back in now. WMG and UME have been very slow, but not closed off entirely. From UME, we just got Casper and Swashbuckler in the past few months. From WMG, other than the Harry Potter box BF 2018, Superman a few months later, and Towering Inferno BF 2019, I can't think off the top of my head of anything else from other composers in the past year or so, but I'm sure they've been some Regardless, after covid, things should return to normal at all these places. I think Sony Pictures has been closed for any licensing since it started and hasn't reopened yet, for example Link to post Share on other sites
Arpy 3772 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 So it's just jumping and shouting, trying to get a hold of Disney?

Seems like those have been in development for an unusually long time. A 30th Anniversary expansion for Hook seems like such a no-brainer, Not sure what's stopping them from re-releasing that score under Mike's supervision (other than cost; they said the initial release was extremely expensive IIRC).

I guess this is a problem when hugecorporations like Disney buy everything else up, instead of communicating with them, they will initiate discussions at their convenience. Intrada Records has worked with Disney a ton and put out plenty of scores they control - Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend, Black Hole, Hocus Pocus, Night Crossing, A Far Off Place, Return to Oz, Secret of NIMH, The Rocketeer, Dick Tracy, Alive, etc. It's certainly plausible they could get to do Nixon and SpaceCamp. The Patriot, I dunno if that would have to be Intrada, or could be anybody, since Disney only controls the OST album, and Sony Pictures controls all the rest of the music; They'd basically just have to sign paperwork to make the release happen, they don't have to go dig for and transfer any elements or anything The SW and Indy scores will come out on Disney Records in completely form eventually, surely!

If what they said about the vaulted unreleased music is true, maybe it's just a licensing nightmare. I guess the same things that hold up any other releases: elements or approvals. In the case of Hook, if those missing reels are still missing, maybe they don't consider a new version worth doing until they are found? As for approvals, if they found any of the song demos or anything, they'd have to track down the names of any vocal performers and see if they are under contract with anyone that would need to approve. Plus, all Spielberg films need to be approved by him, and not just by JW; and he's been pretty busy. Of course, he did allow a bunch of really weird deleted scenes on the latest Hook blu, so that gives me hope. But then again, maybe he wouldn't want a release of a musical-ish film score he seems to generally feel ashamed of, when West Side Story is imminent. Luckily by the end of 2021, the actual 30th anniversary of Hook (it opened December 11 1991), West Side Story should be old news... Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 I looked up which film scores that had an OST album on the Hollywood Records label (the label that released The Patriot OST) and have gotten an expansion from the specialty labels, and this is what I found: JNH's Alive (Intrada) Goldsmith's The Ghost and the Darkness (Intrada) Zimmer's MIssion: Impossible II (Mondo - LP only) Newman's Operation Dumbo Drop (Intrada) Goldsmith's Powder (Intrada) Horner's The Rocketeer (Intrada) So it looks like other than the weird Mondo exception, it's gonna be Intrada for The Patriot. Can you imagine, though, if Mondo releases a Patriot expansion on vinyl only? I don't think it's possible, because I don't think Williams allows anyone except Mike to work on his scores, and I don't know if Mike would do Patriot for Mondo without securing rights for Intrada to do a simultaneous CD version, but stranger things have happened.....

Sadly they never elaborated on why that material couldn't be released the first time (we can guess, could be a multitude of reasons) but I suspect they wouldn't bother re-releasing the score unless they were able to get all the material out there and do it comprehensively (especially when fans already purchased that flawed release). They probably want to ensure any subsequent release is worth the second purchase. Holko 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 That's Mike's philosophy for any score he works on: Make all prior releases (and bootlegs) irrelevant so the new one is the only edition you need. Sometimes they have to make sacrifices to fit in the 80 minute runtime, sometimes a composer might reject the inclusion of something he would like to include, but that seems to be the goal he strives for Link to post Share on other sites

Jay 19474 Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Huh, must have been an oversight. The BFG is also missing from that post. Obviously, those can only be expanded by Disney Records themselves Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 I cleaned up a few mistakes / misinformation in various posts, should be all correct info posted by me now. Link to post Share on other sites
E-Wan 43 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Arista Records 1990 Home Alone (La-La Land 2015) Jay, IMHO Arista Records released the song album, not John Williams' score which was released by CBS Records. Dreamworks Records 2004 The Terminal 2005 War of the Worlds (Intrada 2020) 2005 Munich Jay, in fact these 3 soundtracks have been released by Decca Records, not Dreamworks Records.

Internationally, sure. In the USA, they are Dreamworks Records. Link to post Share on other sites

According to the following sources all U.S. versions were released by Decca Records too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Williams_discography http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/title/65585/Terminal%2C+The http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/title/69722/War+Of+The+Worlds http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/title/73506/Munich Only FYC promos for The Terminal and Munich were released by DreamWorks.

Jay 19474 Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 Hmmm I'll have to double check my CDs at home, then! I was looking at them this weekend for something and I remember the Dreamworks Records logo clear as day on Amistad, Saving Private Ryan, Minority Report, and Catch Me If You Can.... but now I can't remember precisely what Terminal WOTW, and Munich said! I'll double check when I get home EDIT: Wikipedia says UMG bought Dreamworks Records in 2003, so maybe the titles released after that point still had the Dreamworks Records logo on them, but they were not distributed by UMG/Decca and got Decca catalog numbers Link to post Share on other sites

Jay 19474 Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 Makes sense to me! All fixed up. Link to post Share on other sites
E-Wan 43 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Jay, in the long main list Angela's Ashes is Sony Music release but in the simplified list it is Universal Music Group release. What is right? Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 19474 Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 Curiously, that OST album was Sony Classical (SME) in the US, but Decca (UMG) in every other territory. I assume Sony Music will be the entity that matters, but that's probably why I got mixed up above. I fixed it so it's Sony in both places now. Link to post Share on other sites
