Am sad that I missed out on this one out of all the releases

Some of the tracking edits you really wouldn't want to reproduce--"Balance of Terror" is all but unlistenable in the way all the attack sequence cues are edited.
Tell me about it. Years ago I did that one myself and it was such a challenge that ended up being very frustrating in the end. You are right. It is VERY unlistenable.
You can definitely tell the difference between a tracked score that Robert Raff did and one that Jim Henrikson did. Henrikson was a much smoother music editor, that's for sure.

Doesn't Apple have this on their store?
All but two of the 15 TOS albums are available for download purchase, if I recall. It's at the iTunes store, Amazon downloads, and apparently you can hear it on Spotify. Similar situation with the Lost in Space box. But it's better with the booklets you get in the actual box sets.

I just came upon an interview with Arthur Heinemann, who wrote the Space Hippies script, in Starlog #147 (Oct 1989):
"I enjoyed the episode, too, because I wrote the lyrics for some of the songs that the hippies sang. As a matter of fact, I get a royalty check from EMI about once a year for $3.47."
That's kind of amusing. Sadly, it says he died two weeks after giving the interview.

ORDERED! (I feel faint....)
Ten years ago today!
Wow. There been a lot going on, hasn't there?
According to Last.FM both Alexander Courage and Fred Steiner both made my top 10 most played artists this past year. So apparently I'm still listening to this.
It's also one of three music sets I have on display. (Arista Star Wars and The Blue Box are the others.)
Happy anniversary!

Once upon a time most of this set was available on Spotify / Amazon Music / etc. excepting the albums that were already published by GNP (The Cage / Where No Man Has Gone Before, Amok Time / Doomsday Machine, and so on.) All the GNP albums are still around.
What magic allowed this to happen and what would have to happen for it to happen again? I only ask because it's a little sad to me that this music is only available on an expensive and now sold out (yay!) box set.
So I'm listening to one disc per day. Day Three: Fred Steiner Day! Charlie X, Mudd's Women, Corbomite Maneuver, Balance of Terror, and What are Little Girls Made Of.
This is my favorite disc.

I still have my copy unopened, sitting in a box with a lot of my other CDs. They will probably stay there until I move. Strange thing is, I'm finding titles I have no knowledge of buying. I recently came across a copy of Cahill: U.S. Marshall I can't remember purchasing.

A used copy of the box set is asking $1349.99 on eBay. It won't necessarily sell for that much, but still:

I'm glad I bought it on day one in 2012, along with a bunch of us here. I've been listening to it on and off all night, on a work from home shift. I don't really care about the scarcity and dollar value of this thing; it's the music itself. That's what's great about it. I wish it was more available, not less.
Incidentally:
Earlier in this thread, it was said that "Friday's Child" has a track with print-through, a faint echo in the tape due to its age. It's "Coochy Coo/Godfathers" (S2 D1 T33). I don't hear it. Can anybody else hear a print-through tape echo?
I'm just hearing such good sound throughout the box (especially having replaced the library cues with upgrades from the 50th Anniversary set). So good.

Oy vey. When I had my house fire, this is one box I was panicking over because I knew I'd never be able to replace it for a fair price. But, thankfully, the discs sustained no damage and not only was I able to replace the cases, La La Land sent me a new box for it. So it's on the shelf just like the day I first unwrapped it. The only box they couldn't replace (and they generously sent me a 4 spare boxes for my other sets gratis) was for the Lost in Space release. But the discs are fine as are the inserts.

Attaboy! That’ll show those money-grubbing folks at La-La Land!
Ignorance is bliss.
