I just ordered ST III at Screen Archives and ST The Deluxe Edition at Varese's site. Now I play the waiting game.
Regarding further STAR TREK re-issues, ST-V and TOS are the only things that could tempt me now. And with so much money going out the door and so much music on disc now, I can afford to wait a while before they come along.

I've said it before (http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/daily/article.cfm/articleID/6277/My-Five-Definitive-Star-Trek-Cues/) and I'll say it again: Stealing the Enterprise is one of the most delightful and exciting cues in the Star Trek musical canon.
This is another thrilling release and makes me thankful, yet again, that I was so tired of these scores (ST 2 & 3) from playing the LPs to death that I never bothered to pick them up on CD. So very worth the wait. Like rediscovering old friends only to find they were better than you remembered.

It's here!! I'm listening to "Stealing the Enterprise" as I type and I never thought we'd get the film version of the cue, sans opening violins. Well done, gang!
A few comments (NOT complaints) about the liner notes:
-page 9: "...influence of Starfleet" is misspelled as "... infleunce of Starfleet."
-page 6: "Ken Ralston, who had shot spacecraft footage for the Star Wars trilogy, served as visual effects supervisor."
He was also ILM's co-supervisor of visual effects on Star Trek II. The liner notes imply that ILM's A-team was busy on Temple of Doom so they just got some spaceship guy from Star Wars, when Ken Ralston was in fact an integral part of the Trek II team.
One question: were Leonard Nimoy or Harve Bennett approached for interviews or soundbites for the liner notes? I only ask because, while Robert Wise and Nick Meyer have spoken about the scores for their respective films, I don't recall anything from Nimoy (or Shatner).
Second question: I noticed Ralph Winter was thanked, along with the film's DP, editor, and UPM. Did these guys contribute anything specific to this release? Winter I understand but the other three guys have all been dead for years.
Again, these are simply comments. Awesome job on this release!!

I got it. Oh my goodness, the sound is great !!!
The sound quality is MILES above the GNP release, and it's absolutely beautifully done.
My hats off to FSM/SAE for this release !!!

As I suspected, the score definitely gets quite a bit of benefit from the breathing room afforded by the expansion. Many of the "interstitial" moments are actually quite striking. The original album, concentrating on notable setpieces, tended to feature the music that was more reminiscent of that for Wrath of Khan. The Klingon theme has more of a chance to stake out its own identity with more variations, and the new variations on the Spock and Vulcan material is all priceless.
To everyone at Film Score Monthly, gentlemen, your work today has been outstanding and I intend to recommend you all for promotion… in whatever fleet we end up serving
