Aside from that, how common or rare are recording sessions and leaked scores from Williams. He gets quite a few official expanded releases, but I have not seen too many leaks, or true recording sessions….
I’ll tell you what’s disrespect to John Williams:So-called Ultimate Edition soundtracks that are really the butchered film-mix-and-not-even-then. THAT’s the real insult – that we would gladly even pay to get our hands on the real sessions and we are shafted by poor-quality releases.
So, yeah, recording sessions for any John Williams score are unlikely to leak… ever – don’t try using HPPS as an example because that was probably a fluke. A depressing thought.
