Incanus 5,715 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 One of the most loved and enthused scores of John Williams must be Hook. Almost every fan has expressed that it is a masterpiece of composition and movie scoring. We all know there is a great need of the official complete release of this magnificent soundtrack (I use superlatives very much on this subject) and since that is to happen at some point(hopefully) in the future we JW fans have come up with our own bootleg and CD-R versions of it. So I would like to know how many disc versions each of you JW fans own? Personally I own the Original Sountrack recording and a 2 CD bootleg and The Ultimate Edition CD-R (3 Discs). And people tend to create complitely their own variations of these by their own preferance. Usually these bootlegs contain material that has been later recorded by Williams or other orchestras as a concert pieces (to name a few Cincinnati Pops orchestra and the Prague Philharmonics).The most multitudinous of the versions (to my knowledge) has 4 Discs. Of course the number of CDs depends on how tightly or loosely one organises all the material but I would not be surprised even if a 5 CD or 6 CD editions would surface some day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I can fit the material I like best on 2 disks.Some of the alternates are redundant,like Arrival of Tink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Lewis 6 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I have the Chrusher 2-CD boot (great one, btw), the 2001 edition (I think there are latter ones). I also have the original soundtrack and some concert suites in compilations. Great score. Top 10 stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I have the oficila release, the first 2-cd boot with poor sound, the Concorde boot, a private 4-cd version, plus mine, still in the works, with material I've never saw in anyone else version, not even in Chris Chrusher version, that is made up of three discs (no need for a fourth, as I only included the music recorded for the film, no re-recordings.)

Albaicin 0 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I have the OST CD, plus the concorde 2 CD bootleg. And three tracks form a live concert, which include 'The Never Feast', 'The Face of Pan' (with an extended flute solo) and 'Themes from Hook'.

fommes 153 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I have the OST and I made a 3 CD version myself. I combined the cue lists I could find and I think I cleared up the inaccuracies (e.g. concerning the Stories Are True cues)... If you want to make a complete score, it won't fit onto two CDs, if you would include all the alternates, that is.Lotman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 I have the one disc oficial edition and two 2-cd boots. One of these, the Concorde Boot, is my favorite and the main reason for Hook being in my top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
