Any thoughts on this expanded presentation vs. the original album?
I love the extra bits and am a very happy customer

Playing my CD now (it's on as I work from home...I will give it a proper listen later, while reading the booklet notes by John Takis, one of my favoured OST liner writers).
I always loved the track Marty's Apology and wanted it to be longer. Now it is
And much nearer the beginning of the CD, as opposed to the old Varese album, which moved it to the end.
Yes, the recording/mix is very odd on this one at times (old and new edition).
Nothing sounds quite were it should be, with certain sections blasting over others on occasion.
Piano and synths appear more front forward a lot of the times, with everything else playing behind them.
But it's a great score, very 'of its time', with the keyboards and rhythms, but a blast nonetheless.
A superior horror/thriller soundtrack from a time when music and melody weren't treated as the enemy.
It's quite the 'Member Berry' too.
The music really takes me back to the time and place of listening to the old LP (my bedroom of my parents house...20 year old me and my fast growing collection of Film Score albums).
Excellent stuff...Thanks Intrada.
