That's one release I completely forgot about for some reason. I have the OST album, which I like well enough. 

 

Not sure whether to get the expanded version, though... Whatchoo guys think? Should I spend 30-40 bucks on this? Right now, with the whole world apparently having turned upside down, everything seems so pointless. The last JW CD I bought was Far and Away!

He, he. Crumbs beat me to it.

 

The score is a solid '4'. Somewhat underrated, I think. The film is pretty good too.

 

Love the main title. 

 

Haven't seen the movie yet, though. 

 

For me, the score is a solid 3,5.

Haven't seen the film, but gave the OST a listen. Overall I'm just not interested or desperate to get the expanded set. Maybe in the future when it's sold out...

I gave the OST 5 listens until I grew to love it from an initial heavy disinterest. Love this set, too.

Having only had the Varese recording on an illicit cassette copy from a friend years ago, I jumped at the chance of the expanded version. Sure, it was a lot of money (and even worse when you factor in the ludicrous amount of postage to the UK), but I've not regretted it at all.

 

I'm not quite as much a completist as many people - I love Far and Away's score, for example, but have no desire to splash out on the recent definitive version when the original CD is so good - so if one of the new releases is good enough for me to buy, that puts it in a minority.

I bought this day 1 since I did not have it previously in physical form.  I gave it 3.5 stars, decent score, good main theme.  I have yet to see the movie, it's on my Roku feed, just waiting for it to appear somewhere for free, don't feel like paying $3-4 to rent this one.
