Just purchased this.
I feel like Quartet is the preserver of John Barry material that is not as high profile as the Bonds, Out of Africa, Somewhere in Time, and so on. Not that other labels haven't released their share, but Quartet really needs to be commended.

Great, just ordered (I only have the Rykodisc, so I'm sure I'll notice the difference in sound quality). The p&p is a lot, but it always is these days, & the delivery from Quartet is very fast. Every year now, as it comes to an end, I think, is this the first year that I don't import any soundtracks? I thought that was last year, but then Moonraker turned up to save the day. Well this year is now taken care of & I hope for one or two other orders.
The last time I ordered something from Quartet, my password didn't work, so I set a new one & noted it in my little password book...& the new one didn't work (& of course I tried the old one again), so another new one has been set, it'll be interesting if that works for the next order (& if it doesn't, it's no big deal to set a new one).

We have never advertised this album as being limited to a specific number of copies anywhere. It will be available as long as there is enough interest, but once the first run is sold, we cannot be sure when it will be reprinted.

The film tracks have a different sound.
The percussion has a different timbre. In the film version of Doors and Bikes and Things, it has a lower pitch.
There are also slight timing differences.
The brass mixed slightly differently in the film version of the main title.
Alan Haven's organ playing is very different on both.
The album has tracks not found in the film. The film has tracks not found on the album.
The sound of the film tracks is definitely archival not audiophile, but I'm amazed at what Chris Malone has done. You would have to listen very closely to detect it was an M&E track. Without listening closely you'd assume it was a mono pure music track.
It is well worth it.
I'd love things like The Chase and Born Free to get similar treatments in the future.
Cheers
