Make a list of 10 original soundtracks unreleased, of your choice (please, not re-recording)
So in your mind, re-recordings of the same music are worthless and should be ignored?
The Music is DEAD unless it's the original soundtrack recording?
Is that what your saying?

First, sorry my grammar, I don't speak English.
It is something totally subjective, I'd say. Re-recordings are not dead, but are a bit cold in my vision ... Is sometimes as remasters ... I think the technology, equalizers, noise cleaning, a little far from the original that the great works were created ... a remastering, sometimes , can ruin the true musical structure of a work, can become something so 'perfect', which you suspect if it is really or not the original version. Remasters, for example, must be produced in a moderate way ... if not you transform a work of 50 years ago, in a guise of the 21st century, and this is ridiculous .... it's like you put bright modern colors on Da Vinci's Mona Lisa.
Star Trek (the series of the 60's), for example, the remastered version is ridiculous. The Enterprise is not the same Enterprise (before was a ship of plastic, is now a stupid design/cartoon computer) ... they changed the landscapes (!!!) ... they changed the colors (!!!) ... and worse, did a re-recording of the main title/opening theme! ... I traded in the store, the remastered version that I had purchased for an earlier release, not remastered .... it was an offense to me.
Well, but we are talking about re-recordings of course. Personally, I do not like re-recordings, or I like very little, I prefer the original recordings because they are the versions that I hear in the movies. Of course, as a collector, I have re-recordings ... for example, I have all re-recordings of Henry Mancini (I will not say names because they are many), Adolph Deutch (The Apartment, album version), Bernard Herrmann (example, Psycho, 1975), Elmer Bernstein (examples, The Ten Commandments, 1959 & 1966 versions), Miklós Rózsa (example, Lust For Life, 1958) etc, etc, etc, etc .... I have all this and more, but I really like most of the original recordings, the versions I heard in the movies. So I'd like to know what the original tracks that have not yet been released that you guys would like.

Great titles, partner!
Anyway...'Helen Of Troy' the original film version has been released ... Mythus, 1995: http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/title/8287/Helen+Of+Troy
Thanks, but I already have that. "Independent" recording, not regarded as legitimate.
If we included scores out there already available as "independent" recordings, this list would be considerably smaller.

But I like re-recordings...
I do to. But there are not that many unreleased re-recordings. I suppose because they usually are created for the sole purpose of being released. :-)

From this recent thread:
http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=107261&forumID=1&archive=0
Here are ten titles, if I had to force it down to ten, that are unreleased that I really want released; in no special order:
1. "Muloorina" (short film; John Barry)
2. "Duel" (Billy Goldenberg)
3. "P.J." (Neal Hefti; and I'd like to hear both rejected scores, by Dave Grusin and Percy Faith)
4. "Darker Than Amber" (John Parker)
5. "When Eight Bells Toll" (Angela Morley)
6. "Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here" (Dave Grusin; and I'd like to hear the two rejected scores by Jimmy Webb and Patrick Williams)
7. "American Journeys" (short film; Basil Poledouris)
8. "Making Contact" (Paul Gilreath)
9. "Guilty as Sin" (Howard Shore)
10. "Psycho" (Herrmann, original; with today's mastering tech', mastering from stems should yeild fanstastic results)
I ruled out TV series since those are multiple titles in one. This was a hard list!
And thanks to Intrada again, I can cross #2 on my list off. Well, I can remove it, but now I can substitute it with a relatively new find, "World Without Sun" (Serge Baudo).
