Angel however, I am reeeeally dreaming of a release this year. Would be so amazing to have some more Kral stuff!
(and of course Beck's "I Will Remember You" cue...did I mention this already...?  )
With Angel, I think one volume (of 4 CDs) would be enough to cover the highlights.
IT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GO ON WITH MY LIFE, KNOWING WHAT WE HAD, WHAT WE COULD HAVE HAD?
OH GOD. IT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME. I'LL NEVER FORGET. I'LL NEVER FORGET.
I guess that moment always kills me. Buffy/Angel are probably the only shows where I really ate up all that romance stuff up without rolling my eyes.
I am curious what a LALA set of Angel would look like. The score on that show is so consistent and so brooding that it is kind of hard to pick as many favorites as on Buffy, because not a whole lot stands out as much, even though it is consistently good score, but I am sure once you put a box set in, you suddenly realise how many treasures there are.
It would be really cool if LALA managed to bring out a 20th Anniversary set of Angel by the end of the year, but again I think putting an album like that together is a loooong process. I am so glad a label like LALA exists though to release so many cult scores.

Finishing SEASON 2:
"Reptile Boy"
By: Shawn K. Clement & Sean Murray
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5valf9
Highlights:
1:10 in. The opening cue of the episode. I really enjoyed how this cue worked in the scene.
12:24 in.
Is this the only time Cordelia and Jonathan interacted?
Xander: "Is she dying?"
Buffy: "I think she's singing."
Watching a Hindi movie with a woman singing into a phone.
Cordelia: "I just know you're pizza-delivery career will take you to some many exciting places."
Angel: "You're sixteen years old. I'm two-hundred and forty-one."
"Passion"
By: Christophe Beck
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6lirbd
Highlights:
9:17 in. More of the Jenny/Giles love theme.
12:48 in. More of the buffy/Angel love theme.
24:54 in. Hinting at the Buffy and Angel fight music in the two-part season finale.
34:39 in. Include variation on the opening cue noted as being on the promo down below.
39:10 in.
Special Note: The promo has two cues from the episode: the first one that is a minute into the episode, and the last cue in the episode.
Angel: "Don't worry, roller-boy, I got everything under control."

Finishing SEASON 3:
"The Wish"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6m0f4w
Highlights:
0:08 in.
2:37 in.
6:15 in.
7:38 in. Is this the Willow/Oz love theme? I have to admit, anytime I hear it, it just doesn't stick in my head.
13:11 in.
15:23 in.
24:48 in.
31:10 in.
One of my favorite episodes.
Special Note: Three cues from the episode are on the season three score promo.
There are some bits edited out of the cues on the promo, but no loss. The season two and season three promos were very well put together, especially the season two one.
The Master: "Hungry? I've lost my appetite for this one. She keeps looking at me. I'm trying to eat and she looks at me."
Giles: "Yes, I'm aware there's a great deal of demonic activity in Cleveland."
Buffy Summers: "Why don't I put a stake threw her heart."
Giles: "She's not a vampire."
Buffy Summers: ""Yeah, well, you'd be surprised how many things that'll kill."
Giles: "I have to believe in a better world."
The Master: "She's still alive, you see, for the freshness."
Anyanka: "You trusting fool; how do you know the other world is any better than this?"
Giles: "Because it has to be."
That's it for today.

That must be a repeated joke from Harmony, since it's in "The Wish".

Reptile Boy is one of the episodes I have not rewatched in a long time, along with Inca Mummy Girl and the Frankenstein episode.
Anyone been reading the Buffy reboot comics by Boom? So far, they are up to an interesting start. They change quite a bit, Willow is not a shy geek, but some cool, confident, alternative Lesbian, Robin Wood is part of the high school years, Anya is already there working in some sort of magic shop, there is no Jesse, and Drusilla is a mesh-up of the Drusilla we know and the Master, but it is an interesting reboot and the art inside the comic book is so much better than the art in the Dark Horse books.

The Frankenstein episode (Some Assembly Required) has an amazing cue at the end which I am 100% positive was score by Beck! He only did "additional score" on this episode, but I think its quite easy to hear when his cues come in, compared to Adam Fields' stuff. That final cue, I think is the very first hint of the Buffy/Angel love theme. There is some elements in there. Like, it was not quite done baking yet. 
Havent checked out the reboot comics yet, but I have still to finish the first ones. Only mid season 9, lol

Finishing SEASON 4:
EDIT: Fixed.
"The Initiative"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6mmozt
Highlights:
0:00 in.
12:22 in. Opens with a violin and some pleasant acoustic guitar playing. Maybe this was the Riley theme before Wanker did his own.
13:28 in.
22:57 in. Dramatic sissy fight music.
27:45 in. Continues after the commercial break.
31:04 in. Initiative sneaking around music.
38:53 in.
43:36 in. Another performance of what I assume is Beck's theme for Riley.
Spike listens to the Sex Pistols.
Spike says he's 126 years old.
Buffy and Riley both like cheese.
Special Note: No score from this episode was on the La La Land Records 4CD set.
Spike: "New plan: We split up, you go that way."
"Pangs"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5syzyz
Highlights:
0:00 in.
6:22 in.
8:53/15:40 in.
19:06 in.
20:30 in.
34:20 in. Six minutes of fight music.
I think this bullshit shoving of Indians/thanksgiving may make this one of the worst episodes since season one. I come for entertainment, not preachy shit.
I think this is the only time we actually see Giles' kitchen and not the small part behind the square opening.
Willow needs a good slapping. She's becoming Lisa Simpson annoying.
Special Note: No score from this episode was on the La La Land Records set.
Buffy: "Very manly. Not at all Village People."
Anya: "Soon he'll be sweating. I'm imagining having sex with him again."
Buffy: "Imaginary Xander is quite the machine."
Buffy: "I'm a great cook. In theory. I've eaten a lot."
Buffy: "I like my Evil like I like my men: evil."
Spike: "Invite me in!"
Giles: "It's very unlikely."
Buffy: "So you haven't murdered anybody lately? Let's be best pals."
"A New Man"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6mrnk2 (load slowed down some)
Highlights:
16:54 in.
19:58 in. I guess this is the Willow/Tara love theme, but I have to admit it goes in one ear and out the other like the Willow/Oz love theme.
25:30 in.
32:20 in.
38:20 in.
40:38 in.
43:46 in.
Professor Walsh: "It's only our methods that differ; we use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry, and you -- if I understand correctly -- poke them with a sharp stick."
Buffy: "It's more effective than it sounds."
Ethan Rayne: "Isn't this more fun than kicking my ass?"
Giles: "No."
Buffy: "So it had pointy things. What kind of pointy things?"
Xander: "The pointy kind."
Buffy: "You have but-face. You look like you're going to say but."
Buffy introduces her new boyfriend to Giles like Giles is her father. Of course that's what they went for in the series, but it's still a nice touch.
Special Note: Correction: One cue is on the La La Land Records set!

"Triangle"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6n6edd
Highlights:
9:38 in.
2207 in.
26:05 in.
39:30 in.
Anya is the oldest, older a thousand years old.
Special Note: No score from this episode was on the La La Land Records 4CD set.
Xander: "Yeah, relationship debris is kind of pilling up on the Buffy Highway."
Anya: "She endangered the money!"
Willow: "It definitively feels like a you thing."
Willow: "I wish Buffy was here."
Buffy: "I'm here."
Willow: "I wish I had a million dollars."
Tara looks at her
Willow: "Just checking."
Buffy: "You want credit for not feeding off bleeding disaster victims?"
Spike: "Well, yeah."
Willow: "Hello, gay now."
Willow: "Piss him off"
Anya: "I don't know how."
Willow: "Anya, I have faith in you; there is no one you cannot piss off."

Continuing SEASON 6:
"Bargaining: Part 2"
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6rzy8k
Highlights:
10:34 in.
18:15 in. Joining a cue already in progress for the good part.
32:08 in.
35:20 in. Joining a cue already in progress for the good part.
37:20 in. And after the commercial break (including a partial re-praises of Beck's Sacrifice cue).
47:30 in.
Okay, so we know that when a Slayer dies another one is called. So, where are the Slayers?
One for this death and another for the second death later this season. Nope, they never show up.
And the demon that gives a slayer her strength, it what? Just comes back every time with her? So it's not passed from Slayer to Slayer? So many plot holes!
Special Note: No score from this episode was on the La La Land Records 4CD set.
Anya: "Already been looted, sorry."
Xander: "I happen to be a very powerful manwich myself."

SPOILER WARNING...
....
...

I think most of this has been answered in the past: When Buffy dies the first time at the end of season 1, that is her one death that calls a new Slayer. After that, Kendra is essentially *the* Slayer and Buffy is a loophole. Then when Kendra is killed by Drusilla, Faith is called as the new Slayer. After her first death the "slayer line" essentially no longer goes through Buffy (beyond her first death) -- she's the freebie bonus Slayer, and doesn't get to call extra ones with extra deaths.
That said, it does seem like a fantastic loophole to produce as many Slayers as you want (before they make all potential Slayers become Slayers at the end of the series). All they have to do is temporarily stop a Slayer's life, resuscitate them with CPR as Xander does Buffy, rinse and repeat with each subsequent Slayer that gets called. Poof! Slayer army!
