I'll leave it others to comment on the quality of the sound on inexpensive equipment or otherwise, but honestly there is nowhere to go from here for the 50th or at any later time other than a high resolution release. There's no infrastructure in place for that at the moment because it involves two unrelated corporate entities, hence the flourishing of third party labels. But that would be very interesting indeed. I'd buy a high-resolution download of this score on the spot.

Can't stop marvel at the quality of the samples. Dream inducing really... dreaming of this sort of release for STAR WARS... That was my thought exactly. This is what the Star Wars scores deserve. 2-discs containing the complete score, newly remastered from the session tapes, followed by the alternates, and the original album presentation on a third disc. I'd buy the hell out of them. Oh, how I've longed for just such a thing for Star Wars!! Three discs per film - that would make nine discs per trilogy, twenty-seven discs for the entire saga. Twenty-seven discs might make for a cumbersome set, though, so they could package it one trilogy at a time: Prequels, Originals, New JJ Wars. All in superbly-mastered Matessino sound. Ah, to dream.

Thanks for noticing! The STM source music on SII/III is indeed exactly as it was recorded and now mixed from the 2-inch masters. Does this by chance include the two pop renditions of “Can You Read My Mind”? I absolutely love those. Yes, the remastered pop arrangements are on the SII/SIII set. They sound wonderful. Yes, those were remixed too. But technically they were not "pop renditions"... those were actually alternates of the cue for the movie, one intended for a singer and one designated as a "non-vocal" version. Neither of these was ever supposed to have the spoken vocal track over it; only the third version that they ultimately used was intended for that.
