Oh! Pardon me. Though hot dang, I'd buy a reissue of LBT too. I'd rather get an expansion, since there's one (fairly lengthy) cue still missing... But an expanded Balto with the missing quarter hour of excellent music would excite me even more. Yavar

I'll happily voice a dissenting opinion about the sound quality of LAND BEFORE TIME - I flippin' hate it. Distant, vague, uninvolved. Choir and tremolo strings are so meager as to be almost inaudible. Many of his post-WILLOW scores sounded like this and it annoys me greatly. KRULL is the standard for how orchestral music ought to be recorded - Bright, loud, extremely "lush and wet" with a gorgeous, thundering, resounding and THRILLING sound quality. Even BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS is vastly better-recorded than his later, more prestige scores - at least I can hear all the details, wrong notes and all, and the musicians sound like they were in the same room with the microphones! Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe this change-up had something to do with Simon Rhodes producing his sessions from the late-80's onward, no...?

I always have to beef up the volume when playing Horner scores of this era to be able to hear anything and it drives me nuts.

It's a similar frustration to the dry Giacchino sound (thank grop Fallen Kingdom accidentally got a great recording!).
