Damn, I just ordered two scores via Intrada the other day (Blown Away and The Peacemaker). If I knew this was coming I would have waited a bit longer with ordering. Will make an excellent double bill with Psycho II though

A third edition and does not bring the "End Credits" complete?
The end credits on the CD is complete. This is how the cue was written and recorded by Jerry Goldsmith. Later it was edited to make it a little longer. No need to be upset or something.

No interest here as I have the previous releases, but it's great that those who missed it first & second time around, and those who came to soundtracks after it had gone out of print, can now own this great score!

Wonderful news! I've had the expanded edition for almost fifteen years now and hardly a month goes by without me giving it a spin.
Those among us who dont quite get our indifference to the overbearing Zimmer or the dull Desplat are strongly urged to give this score a listen. It emcompasses all that is good of film music and of Goldsmith. The score has melody, drive, variations and even a touch of impressionism, mixed and matched in such a virtuoso manner as to make it seem almost effortless. Long live Jerry! Long live Intrada!
This is such a great news, that I'll be getting a few copies for friends and sceptics. 
FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC!

I 'sorry, but I belong to the group of wanting all complete, all-inclusive.
So you would prefer the version hacked up by somebody else purely to accommodate a mechanical change in the length of the credits, rather than the properly composed one?
Well, I'd say we could have it both ways, if they group at Intrada had wanted to. The total running time of the CD is listed at: Time: 74:54
So there's time. I mean, why can't we have both? Have the edited version as a bonus cue, just as Intrada did with an edit job as a bonus cue on "Capricorn One". That way the original is maintained, and those who want the edit, good or bad, get that, too.

That was very different...that was intended to recreate a creative assembly Goldsmith had prepared for his LP rerecording. That is different than putting together an edit done by a music editor after Goldsmith was out of the picture which has no musical merit or intent. There are a lot of edits in that score used in the film, and there was no way we were going to recreate those for a second disc. You have the complete score, every note as Goldsmith intended. It's perfect as far as I'm concerned.

Then you do not have to buy it. My Father has the first one and I have the second one, so we are set. Just be glad Intrada is doing it and not Varese, they would have given you a 30 minute CD. Glad to see that it was re-released for those who missed it.

It's not the 90's anymore, you know.

You've got a good point on all of those except The Boy Who Could Fly, which was a unique album recording of the score and therefore complete. Percepto released the complete film recording some years back, sadly only limited to 500 copies.
I certainly do agree that it would've been nice of Varese to make their reissue a two disc set with both the film and album recordings complete. It would've been even nicer if they'd done that for Eye of the Needle, because due to their re-recording contract they actually control the rights to release the original film recording as well, but it's never been released and Varese has showed no signs of releasing it.
