QUARTET CELEBRATES TOTAL RECALL AT 25
Iconic Score from Iconic Composer Now with Material Never Heard Before


TOTAL RECALL
Expanded Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (2CD set)
Music Composed and Conducted by Jerry Goldsmith
Performed by The National Philharmonic Orchestra
Limited edition of 3000 units
Release date: 12/15/2015



Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the landmark science fiction blockbuster Total Recall, Quartet Records and Studio Canal present Academy Award-winner Jerry Goldsmith’s thrilling score on an all-new 2-CD special edition. Directed by Paul Verhoeven (RoboCop, Basic Instinct) and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sharon Stone, Total Recall helped change the future of cinematic imagery, while Goldsmith’s score marked a culmination of styles and techniques the composer had developed over four decades of composing for film and television.
Total Recall represents one of the iconic composer’s last masterpieces, recorded with the National Philharmonic Orchestra of London, under his own baton. With this edition, Quartet has expanded upon all of the previous releases of the score, allowing fans of the film and of great music to experience the intrigue, the action, and the exotic world of Total Recall like never before. For the first time, the score as written for the film can now be heard—and with the actual film performances. Cues such as “The Dream” and “The Implant” feature previously unreleased takes, while “Where Am I?” and the “End Credits” make their debut. Exciting bonus tracks include a variety of source cues and an alternate performance of “Clever Girl” from the films original German recording sessions!
Disc One contains the film score, while Disc Two features the original 1990 soundtrack album, alternates, and source music. All of this material—nearly 2 ½ hours in total—has been entirely remixed and remastered from the original digital multi-track tapes by Goldsmith’s longtime scoring mixer, Bruce Botnick. Produced by Neil S. Bulk and Botnick, this new edition includes authoritative liner notes from film music writer Jeff Bond, featuring new interviews with director Paul Verhoeven, music editor Ken Hall, composer Bruno Louchouarn, and Botnick—all presented in a lavishly designed 24-page full-color booklet. With every beat, every cue, and everything you could want to know about the making of this iconic score, it’s more than the definitive release--it’s the release of your dreams.

Great release, thank you!
I consider this one of the best action scores ever, and since I don't have it , it seems this is the definite release to purchase!!!

i see the Varese (if we take into account only the film score) was missing track 5: Where Am I?
I wonder why..

Well, it now appears there are TWO cues called "Where Am I?" Not the first time this has happened (Goldsmith duplicates titles on Gremlins too) but... strange!

Disc 2, track 18 "Environmental source" - FINALLY!!!!!!! (Oh how I missed this on the Varese DE)

That "Environmental Source" cue is worth the price alone! Awesome!

I admit I was skeptical, being perfectly happy with the Varese DE. But after seeing the obvious amount of love and care that went into this, not to mention the original German recording of "Clever Girl," I'm in!! smile

This means Quartet had access to the original sessions. I see this as kinda of a miss-opportunity for an even more unique release. Like Back to the Future they could have presented more alternates of the original performance.

I'm happy with my DE, but would have sprung for this if it had more alternate sessions.

It is strange, because there is no music in the film between the cues "The Implant" and "The Aftermath" so I'm guessing that "Where Am I" is an unused cue? I wonder why that wasn't mentioned if that is the case.

I'd also like to know if this is available via Intrada or La-La or any U.S. retailer?

Intrada sells Quartet titles. I just bought Basic Instinct from them.

I always order Music Box and Quartet through Intrada.

Very cool. Ordered alongside Basic Instinct.

Why exactly this should be available through LLL?
Since when are they selling other label's releases besides those few McCreary's and once in a lifetime set of Shore's CDs?

Quartet Records and Studio Canal present Academy Award-winner Jerry Goldsmith’s thrilling score on an all-new 2-CD special edition.

I'm sure this is a terrific release, and I'm not questioning anything about it when I say this, but it seems the advertising come-on "all-new" has absolutely no meaning anymore.

Quartet comes through yet again! I'll be ordering this ASAP!

Since those sessions were abandoned on the grounds of performance, with the orchestra not being deemed up to the standard the film makers wanted, I suspect we're not missing anything interesting other than bad takes.

Wow, can you imagine if Goldsmith had to keep the recording in Germany? Would we all still like it? Ouch!

Damn, just bought the Varese DE a few months ago... Guess, I'll have to double dip, cause this set does look good
