Do any of you have the japanese CD version? I have heard about it, but I have never seen it.
I do really like the cover art work of the LP with the city, and I was wondering about if the japanese CD (released by MCA) does have the same cover art work. Or is it just like the Varese Sarabande CD?
I hope you can help me.
Regards
Christian

I hated those Sensurround films. I remember having my viewing of Murder By Death spoiled by the effects coming from the next theater which was showing Midway. I would love a release of Earthquake without the effects track.
This made me chuckle. When I saw "New York, New York" the film in the next cinema was "Rollercoaster." Different films -- same experience. As to the "Earthquake" CD, I agree it would be nice to lose the effects track, but I listen to it so infrequently that it really doesn't bother me. Glad you got yourself a copy, henry! How's the Willams collecting going?

I hated those Sensurround films.
Ha, I loved them, but then again I was 12 when that fad rolled around. I first saw "Battlestar Galactica" on its UK theatrical release in Sensurround and it made the model spaceships seem huuuuge, although of course it was ridiculous having that deep bass rumble on every Galactica exterior in the vacuum of space where there should be no sound.
I notice the 2006 DVD of "Earthquake" supposedly emulates the Sensurround effect in 'Sensurround 3.1' for home theatre systems, by feeding the mono soundtrack to the 3 front speakers and the subwoofer -- has anyone experienced this? It has been years since I saw the film, and my memories of it are that it was bad, particularly Victoria Principal's 'fro.
John Williams' score is a guilty pleasure of mine, on vinyl, and I like to break it out (no pun intended) whenever my home is rocked by seismic activity.
Gosh, I wonder who I violated in the image above?

I saw Earthquake in Sensurround when it was first released, also BSG when it hit the theaters.
Yes, I watched Earthquake last fall with a subwoofer plugged in and the DVD set to 3.1. To be honest, it was better with the subwoofer unplugged; my regular speakers (with regular woofers) plugged in and the DVD set to 5.1.
Could be that it's a cheapie subwoofer, I borrowed it from my brother. But I'm not gonna go buy a subwoofer just for this movie.

Somewhat off topic, I have never felt the need for a sub woofer as my front left and right, a pair of ancient Pioneer HPM 100s rattle the floor just fine with their woofers.

Build yourself an IB (Infinite Baffle) subwoofer and you'll find out what real bass is like.
