Very beautiful and sensual score! I will never get tired of listening to her. It is very unfortunate that this release does NOT have a complete score. But, it's good that at least it is have. Many thanks to Mr. Thaxton and everyone involved in this release!
Speaking of Jack Nitzsche. I know it is off topic but anyway I just came from a discussion on Facebook regarding The Exorcist. Someone there told me that the two minute cue/track Iraqi is the complete Jack Nitzsche score. Is that correct? If so then that must be the world`s shortest score to any movie? Even beating Elmer Bernstein`s An American Werewolf in London.

What's exactly missing?
I seem to recall including all the cues that were on the masters as I recall
The intention with this release was to preserve the composer's original album assembly. And I selected some additional bonus tracks that I felt would compliment the reissue of this score at the time, especially the main title music, which had long been one of my holy grails.

I'm very happy with the way it turned out.
Mike J, I didn't mean to be ungrateful. I only dream of ever seeing a full score. I will say even more - this soundtrack is worth a full release and not just a reissue of the 1990 album. To some extent - it's a bit banal and boring.
So thanx Mike J. for your contribution to this issue, but it was worth CONTINUING to go further; to the finish line!)
