When Zbigniew Preisner delivered A History of Eternity, I suggested to him a few cuts. Zbigniew objected to any changes since he had already conceived his music both as a film score and as an album while composing. That meant the score had a concept as it was and any cuts would have destroyed that concept. And who am I to disagree with Zbigniew Preisner? I accept that happily. I respect that and shut the f*ck up.

As a C&C, MAN AT THE TOP would be a few minutes longer. I cut about 5 minutes and put the cues in a different order for more variety. I found the score originally quite tedious and repetitive while listening to it for the first time as C&C. Some cuts and a different order helped.
This is a not a knock against you personally at all, but more or less a statement on why I am against edited albums. But this is another BIG reason why I would rather see every score be released C & C. I don't want someone else choosing for me what they personally considered "a better way" to listen to the score. I'd rather that be left up to the listener/consumer buying the score released. What one person feels is not worthy of a release or making the cut may have been deemed a total must from another person in the same exact position.
This is why so many people look forward to C & C releases on here. A piece of music that someone may have absolutely loved from a score and wanted to hear was determined to be excess, repetitive, or not worth keeping on the original album and left off. So getting those previously unreleased cues, whether the music is a favorite of a producer or whomever making that decision or not, is presented for everybody to listen and appreciate. And that is very satisfying and quite gratifying.
-- Unrelated --
Regarding demand for C&C scores, I have to say it is quite telling when you look on every thread for a new score release announced on here and make a note on how many posts are made about a cue that will finally be able to be heard for the first time in all it's glory. Just look at the Land Before Time, The Last Castle or War of the Worlds threads right now to see this. Hearing a score re-mastered is always welcome and rewarding. But sometimes (a lot of times for me personally) hearing those cues that were never released before is as equally, if not more, exciting.
