This is a comments thread about FSM CD: The Poseidon Adventure/ The Paper Chase

Loved this CD when it was released!
3 JW scores on one disc! WoW!!
POSEIDON has since been re-issued, with the recent LLL Disaster Box edition blowing every thing else out of the water!
But it's still essential to ones' collection for THE PAPER CHASE and half of the score to CONRACK.

The Poseidon Adventure has been revisited multiple times since this early FSM threefer... I wonder how long it will be before the wonderful Mike Mattesino will give The Paper Chase and Conrack the fresh TLC they deserve!

I'm only aware of the FSM and LLL CDs. And I'm crazy about the LLL edition for bringing out the film-version song vocals. Man, I love those. Was there another release I didn't hear about?

That's exactly what I was thinking. It has to be one or the other. F'n bots.

The now-deleted member made comments on this thread and only one other last year. Both quickly referenced the topic at hand and moved on to a sales pitch. Sounds like one of those "make big money on the internet from home!" offers you see stapled to telephone poles all over big cites. Basically they want you to troll around forums and social media dropping these shady sales pitches. It's harder to detect than automated bots.

Is that the name of Elon Musk's pending sexbot dealership?

LLL did it twice! They first improved upon the 1998 FSM edition in 2010, as a standalone release. And then more recently as a Black Friday title at the end of 2019 they included a new, *significantly* improved version in their John Williams Disaster Scores set:

Ah, I forgot about that box. I had a pretty good bout of soundtrack lust when it came out, but based on what I already own, I simply could not justify the purchase.

The LLL JW Disaster Box blows EVERY OTHER version of those 3 scores OUT OF THE WATER!!
If you love those scores to POSEIDON ADVENTURE, EARTHQUAKE and TOWERING INFERNO, you really do need to get them in this 'Gift From The Heavens' Edition.

Oh, absolutely Kev! But to be fair if it’s only The Poseidon Adventure he’s interested in, I guess it’s the “least improved” over the previous edition? I mean, it’s still really improved, but compared to the Matessino/Malone painstaking restoration work on Towering Inferno fixing all that wow and damage, or the fact that Earthquake BOTH expands the album recording AND premieres the very different complete film recording… well, The Poseidon Adventure revisit is kinda icing on the cake to the main attractions IMO.
