I don't think this is worthless at all. Certainly a fresh recording would be welcome, which would allow for perhaps greater tweaking of the score, but I think this is interesting as a reconceptualization of Amano's exceptional scores for "Giant Robo" into a concert work. Frankly, it's something I wish a lot more film composers would do... but of course it requires far more effort than just throwing all the cues onto a disc in chronological order and calling it a definitive presentation of the music.
That said, I find the "symphonic suite" album of the first episode's score to be a more enjoyable and satisfying listen.
Reading this over again, it kind of sounds like I want film composers to re-edit their existing recordings into "concert suites." I meant that I wish more film composers would reconceptualize the music for concert performance, like Prokofiev creating the Nevsky cantata by reshaping his score for the film, or the supposedly dreaded "album rerecordings" of old where Rozsa, Goldsmith, Williams, et al. would pick highlights and tweak it for optimal musicality separate from the film to create a better listening experience. It's nice to hear the music develop a bit instead of jumping from dramatic beat to dramatic beat when its divorced from the filmic context. But you all probably knew that's what I meant, right?
