Roger says
Goldenagers will delight in this mid-50s release, featuring the premiere appearance of this score by one of Golden Age's greats! Never released in any format, except on LP, but not really. And there's two meanings behind that comment!

It seems as if it could be Max Steiner´s THE CAINE MUTINY - there was an LP of the film´s dialogue highlights, but with almost no score on it. And it has often been said on this board that the original music tracks may still exist at RCA as a music only LP had at first been planned in 1954. Have those music tracks been found now?

I'm not sure about your guesses Zardov, since most of them had standard LP releases (then why the "not really"), or a CD release.
My thought is that this mystery item had a standard LP release, but its recorded content was not culled from the original film studio scoring sessions.
For example, Tiomkin's music on that Unique LP for Friendly Persuasion might have been a separate recording done just for album purposes and not sourced from the RKO elements.
For another, The Bad Seed LP contains musical takes/versions that are not heard in the film (and some music heard in the film are not on the LP).

Very interesting.
"Hight and the Mighty" LP re-recording cues were also released on CD, and does a better source than the unmentionable exists? (I hope!). So I doubt...
I'm not sure about your guesses Zardov, since most of them had standard LP releases (then why the "not really"), or a CD release. Then maybe "Moby Dick" but the composer does not fit the clues. The only one that fits is "Sun Also Rises" for which the LP is presumably not the full underscore?
How about:
Max Steiner - Last command
Max Steiner - Come next spring
Max Steiner - So Big
Tiomkin - Night passage
It would be great if it was Friedhofer's The Sun Also Rises(1957), or any of those mentioned above especially Tiomkin's wonderful, Night Passage(1957), which did come out partly on that unofficial Cinema LP 8012.

What about "The Man Who Knew Too Much"?
I don't think there's anything that could be considered an LP of Man Who Knew Too Much, is there? (wonderful as that would be for a new Intrada).

I would be (pleasantly) surprised if original tracks survived for any Columbia film of this vintage and that would apply to THE CAINE MUTINY as well.
Just think about what happened with ON THE WATERFRONT!
And read what Ray Faiola had already posted here in 2002:
"Nevertheless, rumors persist that a Steiner score master exists at RCA. This has been further aggravated by the fact that BMG has had, for a year now, a forthcoming CD of THE CAINE MUTINY. But there is no information on this album anywhere."
