I would guess that you're on the right track. The music for the "Time Out" sequence is quite a bit different from the rest of the score, in its orchestration, pace, and overall character. I assume that, if it were included, it would appear at the beginning of the piece (since the overture proceeds from one sequence to the next, in film order). The fanfare from the Spielberg sequence is kind of the perfect opening, and instead of that, Jerry would either have to write a totally new intro, or devise some incredibly clever way to start off this giant orchestral overture with just a few pianos, percussion and synths. I can't think of any way that it would have worked, but then again, Jerry was an incomparable genius, and I'm just some guy.

The "TIME OUT" segment is among my all time favorite Goldsmith cues.

There was no way to incorporate Time Out, with its slashing and clattering, with the romantic strains in the other three scores. Time Out would've busted the mood, when a major Hollywood studio would have needed it most, on what ended up being one of the best 70's-80's-sci-fi/adventure/fantasy-cinema-era signature pieces from any soundtrack.

There is a longer version of the Overture on Frontiers. Does that include Time Out? (I don’t have it with me right now.)

Jerry actually approached "Time Out " as an attempt to do the type of score he might have done in the early '60s. It wasn't appropriate to bring it back for the end titles. What's more interesting is that the end credit suite ended up reflecting the final episode order because it wasn't that way when he wrote it! Mike
