Thing I had to keep reminding myself was, that many of the cues I always wanted turned out to originate in a single episode and turned out to later become a library cue. So listening to the score I wondered what happened to a certain cue and then I would check the Library cue discs (which highlight which cues are from which original episodes) and then I found every single one of them. For example I was looking for the humerous cue thats often played when something silly happens, like when Scotty was getting drunk with the Kelvins in By Any Other Name and that cue turned out to be from Trouble With Tribbles. Im STILL discovering things about the scores I never knew. Thats part of the beauty of it!

In theory, LLL could have offered a simulated-stereo version of the Collection, the way classic TV shows often have an alternate, colorized version of their DVD season box sets. I would have had to think long and hard about what I wanted if LLL had done that. No, producers should never do that, IMO. Once these "stereoizations" are done and released, they can never be undone. Too many frequencies would have been mucked around with irreversibly. I'm saying that LLL could have offered the mono set or a simulated-stereo set, your choice. You're awfully free with the never and always talk. Anyway, it's not a big deal to me, with the mono sounding good.

Good memory, Adam. I haven't gotten to Amok Time yet, though. I would like to mention how much pure pleasure I got from Spock's Brain. I always liked the score within the episode, but alone it's outstanding! The fight scherzo especially is wild and electrifying when heard in its pure state-- I went nuts-- and "Spock's Fugue" is another cue that comes to life on CD vs the episode. It's much better than you realize from watching TV. I knew I'd love Elaan of Troyius, and boy was I right, but Spock's Brain is in my head now. It's been a discovery, not just a familiar memory. May I also say it's a joy to learn that the master tapes for The Cage are "not so wounded as we were led to believe." Between the completeness and the sound quality, I have never enjoyed The Cage anywhere near so much! The Conscience of the King score is so well-heard in the episode that it really wasn't full of surprises for me, and the Bremner was good as far as it went, but I'm thrilled to have the complete score now, and sounding so damn good.

Here's a nitpick for the producers-- "Amok Time" Track 13 'The Ancient Combat' there is a slight difference in the episode score. When T'Pau exclaims "I can forgive such a display only once!" and the Executioner puts the blade to McCoy's throat, we hear a high pitched whistle-like sound that is not on this soundtrack. Did anyone else notice this? That's an overlay from "Catspaw". Neil

Okay, I'm really good at just going through the cues to find overlays, but this one has me flummoxed. In Mudd's Women, there's a tinkling that backs the sparkling of the Venus drug when Eve is looking at it in Mudd's quarters. It's not in the Venus Drug cue and I never heard it outside of the episode during the tracking. No problem, I was hoping though to find it and put it in myself, but it's not part of the library cues as far as I can tell. It's like a one or two second chime, used twice toward the end. You guys know what I mean?

You guys know what I mean? This is just a guess, but could it be part of the Talosian elevator chime from The Cage, maybe played at a different speed? Or else it's from a planet atmosphere effect.

If that was unclear, I'm afraid it might have sounded like an insult. I should have put "never and always" in quotes. I didn't mean that you "always talk." You're supposed to talk.

Did I miss O'Reily's version of KATHLEEN on there somewhere?

Which episodes was "Mace Fight" from Catspaw tracked into? I'm sure I'm not remembering it from Catspaw. Maybe All Our Yesterdays?

Did I miss O'Reily's version of KATHLEEN on there somewhere? I mentioned that in the other thread a while back, but no one responded. Maybe "Kathleen" was recorded like a looped dialogue track and was never considered a music cue. Not a big deal.

Actually, I'm thinking it could be from The Naked Time, in "Up the Rebels" when Reilly is blowing on the doors to make them open. Maybe that was used to overlay.
