I think Tadlow are doing a rerecording of a lot of the score?
The last I heard on this front was that the closest thing to a re-recording coming was a Moross compilation that included the Bremner recording.

Mine arrived today. For anyone who missed the LLL version, they'll be happy with this.
But for me, comparing the LLL Main Title with the Quartet version, I prefer the LLL.
Seems like some detail has been sucked out of the Quartet version. Rather than being smoother (which I assume was the intention), the sound is relatively dull. But I suppose some might prefer the less bright sound of the Quartet, so it's down to individual taste.
To be honest, in a blind test I think it's the LLL that I would have guessed was the newer, improved version of the two. The new one sounds different but, for me, not better.
I haven't yet auditioned the second album CD in the new set.

What a shock!
Rathbone is dissatisfied with the sound quality!

I wish LLL lowered their shipping costs.
Its really adding up.
Yeah? You should try living in Australia. I ordered from Amazon once. Their shipping quote was such that I told them I could ship an elephant to Iceland for the same money. They never replied.
Australian customers should be grateful anybody ships there!

Don't have the Quartet release as yet. However, I find the LLL version harsh sounding in comparison to the SAE version and that's the one I listen to...

I got my copy yesterday, will play it today. Like you mentioned before, very colorful and interesting booklet.
I'm thinking, while listening to "The Welcoming" track, that this might be one of the most magnificent pieces of film music in my entire collection. Or at least, the one cue that best sums up everything film score music has to offer, all rolled into one track. So colorful, adventurous, engaging, energetic, surging in creativity, spirited, so brilliantly attuned to the scene in the film, both beautiful and ruggedly handsome at the same time, and romantic in a grand way. And it seems a complete piece of music, with such natural-sounding progression from beginning to end. I think this would be the one track I'd pick to best represent all the good things I see and hear in film music, and the brilliance of the composers. It's also one of the pieces I'd most like to see performed live. I imagine the orchestra members cavorting almost as nimbly as the cowboys in the movie scene itself.
