But it’s Goldsmith, so let’s have it! 🙂 Thanks for sharing this one, Steve.
Thank you so much.
Yep, share you’re opinion!
Nobody is forcing you to download it are they?
awesome
Zippy is perfect with jdownloader 🙂
I load the links into Jdownloader2 and never have a problem.
Thanks for the upload!
I usually tend to prefer digital recordings of music such as classical or film soundtracks, simply put, without getting into the "analog vs. digital" discussions that never reach any agreement.
But, in this case, I have to hand it to the analog mixes, as they sound significant better. I don’t know if the label chose to pay more attention to the analog tapes over the digital ones, or if simply one sounded better than the other and there was nothing they could do about it. Anyway, it’s great they offered us the opportunity to decide for ourselves, and trust me, if you’re not the sentimental type who holds on to your old stuff, you can take your previous releases of this and sell them without worries, as this is the definitive version.
And once again, thanks for sharing, Steve. Surely hope a FLAC version with scans will surface someday, but this definitely does the job until then.

from Intrada:
This three-CD set presents the complete score from the digital Sony PCM 3324 mixes Goldsmith and Botnick prepared back in 1986 for presentation on CD. While clean and quiet as you’d expect from the digital medium, the producing team added a fair amount of reverb. The complete score is presented again, this time newly remixed from the 1/2" analog film mixes stored in the MGM vaults, designed more to suit the film. While not as balanced as the digital mix, it features a much more crisp, detailed sound, mainly due to the lack of reverb.

Thanks for sharing this is info, Pete. I knew there was something more to it than the digital masters. The 1986 Intrada booklet says it was recorded digitally on 24 tracks and then downmixed to 2 channels. Maybe today these 24 track tapes doesn’t exist anymore, otherwise I’m sure they would’ve done something better about it (not that it’s bad now). I mean, just listen to John Barry’s "The Black Hole" from the same label.
Did you get this info from the booklet?
no..they posted it when they announced the set
