Edmilson 7,454 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 So, the movie is 69 minutes long, but the Intrada album is 74 minutes. That means there are 5 minutes of unused material in the score. I think we're gonna need a spreadsheet detailing all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 The End Credits of the film itself use the song and then only 2 1/2 minutes of his 6 minute end credits composition, plus Spielberg had Bluth remove some footage that was considered "too frightening" for children after it had been scored. That's all there is to it. Two quotes from the FSM thread: Quote There's a bombastic, concertized flourish at 4:25 into the cue "Whispering Winds" that isn't in the film Quote I think he did score some of the unused footage, because there's also music on "The Rescue / Discovery of the Great Valley" (0:29 - 2:28) that is not heard in the film.

MedigoScan 324 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 There's also a few minor bits in 'Sharptooth and the Earthquake' that seemed to have been intended for cut scenes. I would assume the director didnt keep the footage. But who knows, that full hell scene from AllDogsGoToHeaven was still kept somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post publicist 4,643 Posted October 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2020 Interesting Horner quote about the score in question from http://jameshorner-filmmusic.com/the-land-before-time-expanded-edition-our-exclusive-review/: Quote “When the opportunity arises to apply a choral element from Sergei Prokofiev's Cantata for the 20th Anniversary Of The October Revolution to Red Heat, I will take it. That this choir piece was written thirty years before Prokofiev by Rimsky-Korsakov is not part of my selection criteria. The repertoire as a whole is in itself an area of fertility that I avail myself of like Prokofiev did, or any other composer. Richard Strauss thought of himself as someone who "passed the baton", that’s a telling phrase, I think. You know, who today would accuse Béla Bartók of plagiarism or of having looted Hungarian folklore, when in fact, his genius was all about incorporating that folklore into his work?! When you hear strains of Bartók in The Land Before Time or in Jerry Goldsmith's Legend, I think we are torch bearers, and the music you will hear tomorrow, in ten years or in a century, will have taken another form. Film music has a certain structure that allows the repertoire to evolve. You know, I have always seen our profession as a contemporary metaphor of the times when Bach and Haydn wrote scores for kings or for liturgical events on commission. As a composer, I offer my methodology and my contribution to the history of music. Of course, there will always be a debate about who was inspired by whom. The learned minds of Haydn's time accused him of stealing from his father, Joseph. In Mozart's time, everything that he wrote was considered to be crap, because every note was compared to the Austrian composer. With the benefit of hindsight, we can appreciate the qualities of these individuals, their contribution and their importance to music history. What would Mozart be without the education of his father, himself influenced by Bach's genius? I have never hidden my admiration for classical music because that was I was taught.” Romão, Edmilson, A. A. Ron and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,364 Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 There's usually a pinhole release switch. If not, the drive itself can often be removed from the rest of the laptop.

Wojo 2,453 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 There should always be a release mechanism. A straight paper clip usually does the trick. My laptop from 2010 bit the dust about two years ago, but I was able to salvage its optical drive, which is a BR drive. I think it is a BR burner, though I have never held a blank BR disc in my life.

Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Im torn on ordering this right now and pay shipping fees twice this month...or wait until the inevitable great release on black friday from either Intrada or LLL to bundle it. :/ heck what a coincidence, the full score runs 74 minutes it could have been released complete on cd in the 80s already.... yes it was the Lp restriction...they could have added the tracks to boost cd sales...like they now do with LP sales...

Demondm810 399 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Is The Great Migration the correct take? Instrumentation and tempo in some spots feels different. Big horn solo at the beginning not nearly as prominent either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demondm810 399 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Album sounds great, obviously the dynamic range isn’t as insane as the original release. But very warm and detailed.

I can't seem to line the OST track up perfectly with the new one. Hard to say if it's a different take or if it's just the mixing throwing it off. I will say though, I am hearing what sounds like some kind of mixing error in Separate Paths, take a listen to the cymbal roll at around 4:56. It sounds almost as if a channel gets cut off prematurely right at 4:58. Not sure if it's like this in the film or not yet. It could just sound like an error and not be one, but it has the feel of an abrupt cut to something that should organically fade out. Anyone else hear this?

But really, you must understand that you cannot correct such errors when they are inherent in the tape. That's not something that occurs during a modern remix of clean source material.
