Not familiar with The Patriot but it's John Williams so im in. I wonder if they chose the 20th on purpose. is that in the US constitution. As it happens, I have enough points to to pay for it, so basically free of charge. Life is good.

WOW A Long awaited expansion. Brilliant Main theme. I'am eager to get this because Matessino will do a fantastic job on the sound mix as I was not so happy with the mushy sound on the ost album. I'm sure this will sound tremendously better than ever and the 3CD program suggests a lot unreleased, unused and tons of alternates. Thanks Intrada. A bit bittersweet because I think this will also be one of the last Doug Fake projects as he was so fond of war related film scores. John Takis confirmed as much over on the JWFan forum (it was apparently the subject of his last conversation with Doug prior to his death). He also mentioned that this was one of Doug’s favorite Williams scores. While I’m a big Williams fan, I must confess that I have zero familiarity with this one. However, I’m definitely considering getting it.

Its usually the part of terms of the studio authorising the release to preserve the OST album. Plus its remastered and better sounding. It's perfectly okay and even desirable to have the OST cut included, so great it's there, but there is no reason to think it is going to sound "better" just because it has been remastered. It's not as if they didn't know how to master these things 30 years ago. Many remasters don't sound better at all, some clearly worse. I don't remember anything wrong with the mastering of THE PATRIOT, so I don't expect it to sound better. I'm just saying this because sometimes it seems people assume any time an album gets remastered, the sound quality is going to be improved, as if "remastering" = "better sound quality" by default. It's not.

I sure hope the sound of the album program if included (and score itself) does sound better than the original CD, because I remember it sounding awful. So awful that I barely ever listen to it. It's been ages -- probably decades -- that I've listened to the score, but I don't remember it sounding "awful" at all, though "awful" isn't a very precise description. Did it have low dynamics or high hissing noise or distortion or something like that?

That's quite the hyperbolic statement. I listen to the score at least once a year and not once have I thought it sounded anywhere close to awful.
