Wojo 2,453 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Strange Days the film soundtrack has been released twice, but looks to be a mix of songs and Graeme Revell pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,389 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Oh, man, another clue from Roger!The 2-CD set is a storybook fantasy from the 60s.I guess that settles it; The late 80's -> present score that's been expanded already without an end title is a single disc, 3000 unit release.Maybe it's Robocop after all, I dunnoNo clue what a storybook fantasy from the 60's worthy of only 1000 units could be.

MattyO 62 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 At any rate, a 1960s storybook fantasy sounds like the perfect chance for me to pick up The Brothers Grimm as well. I'm still completely stumped on the 3000 edition though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,389 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Could the 1CD release be The Last Of The Mohicans by Trevor Jones and Randy Edelman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 That's a good guess.Although the "expansion" was more like a reduction even though it added unreleased music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,389 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Which is why Roger could refer to it as "strange"!I really think this is it!A CD was released at the time of the film (1992) on the Morgan Creek labelA re-recording was released by Varese in 2000. This re-recording dropped some tracks that were on the OST, but added others. This makes it a "strange" kind of expansionNeither CD included the End TitlesThe DVD contains an isolated score that runs 81 minutes. Combine a few shorter cues, remove looping/tracking, and you have a score just shy of 80 minutes, able to fit on 1CD3,000 units is about right for the popularity of this score and movieThe only thing I'm not sure of is if the CDs are in chronological order or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demondm810 399 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I would be excited if this is it. And it seems to fit every category. I'm pretty sure the first album was out of order.... and the second one was corrected.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,389 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The only thing it has going against it is that it appears the re-recording is in order... Also, both albums are still in print.If this is it, though, it bodes well for Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, which is also on the Morgan Creek label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,697 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hmm, might actually pick it up if it's Mohicans.*puts on album he's had for years and never listened to*If only Edelman hadn't used those stupid synths as much as he does.

Wojo 2,453 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have most of The Last of the Mohicans from my Napster days...I know, I am evil. But it's incomplete, some tracks just stop, and I never listened to it. I rediscovered it a year ago and feel it's really great and worth a purchase, but I could never choose between the OST and the McNeely re-recording. The love theme sounds like it inspired Hansy's for At World's End. So a complete re-release would be awesome.Chances are Nate and Hayes [are] waiting for me at home. I just listened to The Dark Crystal this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have most of The Last of the Mohicans from my Napster days...Is it by John Williams?Uh, no. I would download shitloads of tracks from my favorite artists, soundtrack and rock, and then visit Amazon to build albums and figure out what was missing.Though what I have from TLOTM is not on my iPod because I don't know how to tag it. Some tracks by Randy Edelman, and others by Trevor Jones. I own Gettysburg and The Dark Crystal, so I do have albums exclusive to both artists. I could create the Artist known as "Randy Edelman/ Trevor Jones" which is silly.I really don't like the "Various Artists" bit, though 19 track albums like O Brother Where Art Thou? just pollute things like Cover View with close to 19 one-track entries. The three albums in my Compilations genre shouldn't be there, and albums that should be are not.So until I figure it out, it stays off my iPod, and I don't have to watch Daniel Day Lewis run to me as I flip through the album covers.

Jacob 0 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I'm pretty sure the first album was out of order....It is (out of order).The first half (1-9) are the tracks by Jones. The rest are Edelman (I think), except for the song.The soundtrack is one of my favorites. So if this indeed is the release then I'll have to be sure and grab one.

Edelman did very little FYI, he was brought in at the last second to help Jones finish in time, and in the process disqualified the score for nomination.

Jay 37,389 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Well it appears that The Last Of The Mohican's isn't it, because the re-recording was in chronological order.How about Bruce Broughton's "The Boy Who Could Fly" ?OST at time of film's release (1986) on Varese was 35 minutesExpanded score released by Percepto Records in 2002 is 63 minutesBoth CDs are now out of printI have no idea if the CDs are chronological, never having seen the film. They both end with a track called "The Boy Who Could Fly" which might be the end credits, might not, I have no ideaThe full score seems to run about 76 minutes, which would fit on 1 disc. And 3,000 units seems likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,389 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Man, this is quite a stumper. When it's announced I have a feeling we will all either go "ohhhh, DUH!", or it will be something that we dismissed because we thought it didn't fit his clues, or his clues were slightly wrong or somethingI'm not expecting it to be something small we don't care about, because its 3000 units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielle 0 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Robocop makes a lot of sense, despite having tracked/edited credits. The original release was not only as far from chronological order as you can get, but also accidentally repeated a track - The track listing for the disc was also a mess because of this. The expanded release fixed the duplication error and track listing, but maintained the original intended album sequence, and only chucked 5 mins of new cues onto the end of the album. Both discs do end abruptly, something which is solved by adding the end credits. They'd be a worthwhile inclusion for that reason alone. If it is a resequenced and complete Robocop, I'll quite happily buy this score for the third time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManofDestiny 71 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 What about stargate? It released twice, the deluxe edition was expanded, and had only part of the end title. But it's still in print. Besides, wasn't it chronological? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent B 337 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Stargate is in chronological order. The End Credits how they appear on CD is the original End Credits, what appears in the film after that is tracked material. I doubt it would be Stargate, not at 1,000 copies. Grant the score should have been released as a 2-CD set, but I doubt Varese would give Intrada, or another label permission to release the full score.

In which case, the one we're debating is the 3000 one.Can't see any reason to do Stargate and Varese has the rights. Wouldn't make any commercial sense.Whatever it is, they think it will sell well, and it will fit entirely on one CD.
