Dimitri Tiomkin – GIANT – 31 track version by Soundstage Records – 63 minutes – Soundstage Records SCD 555

Does anybody own this disc? It’s impossible to find.

The music is not identical to the content of the retail release, but it’s taken from the original score! Lots of rejected cues and alternates.
