I can tell you that the score in its entirety would be a 2-disc release which not only expands many of the cues already on the OST album to their full lengths ("The Decision to Turn Around" is actually two shorter cues edited together out of order, "Small Victories" is quite longer, etc), but there's a fantastic group of cues (including one brief precursor to "Enemy At The Gates") on there that should never have been left off the OST, they're so good. The standout being the Air National Guard rescue music which introduces a theme you hear throughout "Small Victories" on the album. It's grand, triumphant, hopeful cue, very exciting stuff. That National Guard theme is really only heard in "Small Victories" and barely at all during "Coast Guard Rescue" on the album but is really fleshed out throughout the score in the film. The theme's closest musical cousin would be a motif used throughout "Clear and Present Danger".
In terms of outright alternates between film and album versions, the only true alternate is "Let's Go Boys", which features a section on album that is cut out of the film version via editing, but the musical ideas appear later on in its own standalone cue in a slower, more relaxed arrangement before launching back into the score's main theme. That probably sounds a little confusing.

Hello Ian J.
While I do personally love the score to The Perfect Storm and agree there is a ton of awesome music missing from the album, one of my principles in choosing which scores I choose for my Complete Score Breakdown Series is that there not already be existing information online regarding complete score details (track names, track times, runtimes, etc). I have discussed this a bit in my main CSB thread, but I feel its redundant to spend the time and energy catalogueing the complete score details when they already exist by doing a web search.
It's true that the web search info will not give you film cue vs. cd track comparisons (like Avatarded generously has provided) and I would probably do that if I did a CSB on The Perfect Storm, but I prefer to select scores for which there is virtually no available information regarding unreleased music details and do a Breakdown from scratch. Just a personal decision, it's more rewarding that way to me and more of a personal sense of discovery and sharing of completely new information to people who are interested.
I am sorry to turn down your request, though, I really am!

I could have gone into far more detail, but I wasn't sure how to do so without violating certain board rules because there's a few things I'd have to avoid mentioning.
Yeah, I know what you mean. I go out of my way not to mention that stuff that is not to be mentioned. I point out that you can do a web search for complete score information, but that's all I'll say...and I don't even like providing that much information, honestly. Obviously, I'd never provide any links to such information, as it would clearly be illegitimately broadcast (albeit probably authentically correct) information. Doing my own CSBs by using a personal film-viewing experience only, while limited in not knowing about alternate cues (not in the film or on CD) or having access to actual recording session info, at least provides as many complete score details while still observing the rules of the board and legality. And it is still a lot of fun and very informative.
