I hate, hate, hate myself for what I'm about to say, but: There's no way this couldn't have fit on one disc? Really?
Not an unreasonable question and I’m certainly surprised about spending $30 on The Last Castle myself, but the way this could have fit on one disc would be to omit not only the remastered original album (which might have unique takes/edit points different from the film) but also all of the classical source music which Jerry himself conducted and/or supervised. I realize that sort of thing is perhaps only interesting to huge fans of the film or of Jerry Goldsmith, but I’m a huge enough fan of the latter that I confess I’m interested to hear Jerry’s take on these as a conductor in particular.
Yavar
I hear all of that and my question sort of assumed it, but I guess I'll do a brief analysis after I get the set to see. I think another justification would be some requirement that the entirety of the original album needed to appear. But if you cut out the two songs, the source music, and the alternates that just present a slightly different performance or a very slightly different instrument balance, I'm having difficulty believing that what's left over wouldn't have fit on one disc.
However, I will absolutely respect Yavar's desire to hear Goldsmith's take on the classical material.
