Intrada's 2015 issue of CAPRICORN ONE was already a (slightly different) re-release of Intrada's 2005 issue of the score. So Intrada has already published it twice, not sure how likely a third time would be. CASSANDRA CROSSING has been released on LP and on CD before the Prometheus, the Prometheus is the most comprehensive one and the one to seek out and get though.

I have CAPRICORN ONE (LP version) on that two-fer with OUTLAND (also the LP edition) and the Intrada edition which was the ACTUAL film score, not the smoother re-recording. It's much more jagged and atonal and bitty...but I love having it in addition to the LP recording. And the LP version was re-issued on CD (with out out out OUTLAND) on that P label (Perseverance? Percepto? PeptoBismol?). The LP cut of OUTLAND was first released on GNP Crescendo (with the LP cut of CAPRICORN ONE), and was later re-issued by Warner Music in Europe (without CAPRICORN ONE).

Oh wait...I know CAP1 is a Lew Grace ITC Production, but Warner Bros have their tentacles connected to it, so if they have some kind of final say...it ain't coming out in the near future? The LP cut of OUTLAND was re-released by Warner, the LP cut of CAPRICORN ONE came out on Perseverance Records. Both movies were distributed by Warner Bros, though I have no idea how that might effect soundtrack releases. I don't know who owns what currently. :-)

One day it would be cool to get a 2CD reissue of Capricorn One that combines both the film and album recordings on a single release (and taking up just a single CD space on the shelf). When it comes to Goldsmith, he film and unique album recordings were paired together on albums for The Prize (1963), Justine (1969), Patton (1970), Wild Rovers (1971), Damien: Omen II (1978), Masada (1981), and -- just last month -- MacArthur (1977). For Stagecoach (1966), Capricorn One (1978), and the two Flint scores (1966/67), one has to buy some combination of two separate albums from different labels in order to get both the film recordings and the recordings made specially for LP. (And for 1967's Hour of the Gun and 1971's The Last Run, the film recordings alas seem to be lost to time and have never been released on album... I'm still not sure whether the album for QBVII was unique from the film recording.) Intrada had left off the unique Masada LP recording from their original 2CD premiere of the film recording, but later when they revisited the title they added it to make that set definitive. Maybe someday they'll step forward to give Capricorn One similar treatment? Haha...and it was Yavar who talked ME into DON IS DEAD. I never really liked it from my old taped off the telly edition (that annoying quack quack synth got on my nerves) but he convinced me to listen to his Odyssey Podcast Mathingy and what I heard was...REV - A - LAVATORY!! Thanks for the plug Kev!. Here's the brief podcast episode that convinced him, Graham, if you're curious to check it out -- the very first Soundtrack Spotlight episode we ever produced! https://goldsmithodyssey.buzzsprout.com/159614/5097955-odyssey-soundtrack-spotlight-the-don-is-dead-1973 It's a great CD and I've no doubt you will love it to bits too. It's got a gorgeous Love Theme that you would hardly know is there seeing from the film. I think the song is even decent (it can join the RAMBO'S in the songs I like by Jerry cupboard). I also like the song! I wish I knew who was singing it... but yeah there's a lot of nice melody throughout the score that has been overlooked for decades because the weird synths of the Main Title kinda overshadowed everything else. And I've got MACARTHUR to come from Intrada too. Looking forward to both your thoughts on that! I personally connected with the edgier (and stranger, at times) film recording more than I ever did the original album recording. I expanded on my thoughts in this Spotlight: https://goldsmithodyssey.buzzsprout.com/159614/14140529-odyssey-soundtrack-spotlight-macarthur-1977 Yavar

Ah right, I'd just assumed that the Intrada release of CAPRICORN ONE was a double CD which included the original score plus the album re-recording. Quite glad I went ahead with the Perseverance order. I don't think I've heard this in well over thirty years, and yet every note of that old LP is burned into what's left of my frazzled brain. It'll be nice to have it again. Regarding THE DON IS DEAD - I will get around to the podcast, Yavar, but I actually watched the film before I placed my order. As the End Titles rolled, my wife asked, "So, is it good enough?", and I replied, "Yeah, good enough." Although even in the film I was a little distressed by the synthy effects during the first five minutes.

Yeah, they aren't my favorite part of the score by any means but they've grown on me in the nice-sounding Intrada presentation. Or at least I've gotten used to them, haha. Yavar

The LP cut of OUTLAND was first released on GNP Crescendo (with the LP cut of CAPRICORN ONE), and was later re-issued by Warner Music in Europe (without CAPRICORN ONE). Isn't the LP version of OUTLAND included in the 2-disc FSM release?
