Yeah, the album was a rerecording done in London (the soundtrack was done in LA). The album cues are also arranged slightly differently to make them more listenable. I suspect the reason this one hasn't been released is because of a rights issue with the Steppanwolf pop song heard on the original release. Too bad, it's one of Elmer's better scores from the 80s.

Isn't it about time the fellow who started this thread added a Question Mark to his misleading subject heading?

I saw the film when it was first on cable. While Redford is charming, he and Winger have no chemistry, so as a romantic comedy, it falls completely flat. It was famous at the time for being wildly expensive, though I'm guessing it cost what ten minutes of a Marvel movie costs now. It was originally written as a buddy comedy, but then rewritten to be a romantic comedy. All this indecisiveness is apparent in the multiple versions of the ending that were shot. The theatrical version has Darryl Hannah's character found innocent of murder, but in the broadcast television version she's guilty (and apparently, more permutations exist). I guess I should have given a spoiler alert there, but unless you're sure which version you're watching, she could be anything! I'm fond of the score, which is energetic and jazzy in that '80s Bernstein way, featuring the inevitable Ondes Martenot. I didn't realize the album was a re-recording.
