TerraEpon - to help clarify, in the case of spiders, yes it's almost completely alternate music. Certain passages are clearly the same. As to what is edited vs new takes, that's harder to say. (Thanks, Scott, that makes sense!)
Suffice it to say the 10.24 min "Spiders" cue on the 1999 album contains music not in "Spiders and Static" 7:54 cue on the 2 disc (as well as the alternate versions).
A lot of expanded soundtrack releases pretty much replace the original. Total Recall is a great example: each newer album has rendered the previous obsolete. If you have the quartet Total Recall... no reason to own the other versions.
Not the case with Lost in Space. My point was simply to give people heads up that 1999 album still has a lot of unique music not on the 2 disc. Both versions of the score are worth owning if you're a fan as they are both very different listening experiences with actually different music (some tracks are still the same of course).
Though not as dramatically different as say the Back to Future alternate score disc, it's more akin to that. A more alternate "version" of the score, not just a few superfluous changes here and there. Unlike back to the future alternate though where it's clear Silvestri really blew the roof off the house with his revisions, I wouldn't say one version is clearly better than the other here. Just Broughton deftly rewriting to fit all sorts of changes while remaining cohesive. Really a joy to hear.
!!EDIT: Rus later points out in this thread that all the music on the 1999 disc is on the 2cd, just very heavily edited and spread out over various tracks in some places. He's right. The 1999 disc sure makes for a different listening experience though. Apologies for the misinformation!!

As someone who has the original regular songs/score CD release AND the first Intrada expanded edition (77 minutes), but not this 2 disc edition, how much NEW, NEVER HEARD BEFORE music is there, minutes wise?
Thanks.
6, judging by the running time of the score printed on the label. However, this presentation may be presenting everything as presented in the movie, where the previous album may be first stabs before picture changes.
This was my third go 'round for this score; it was worth it.

Anyone notice this film uses the same main theme as 'The Rescuers Down Under' (Or vice-versa)?
It's treated differently in each movie but it's def the same.
I thought it was funny that Intrada just slipped this in on the same release day as 'Rescuers...' without too much fanfare, but it was there on the counter at Creature Features in Burbank when Intrada held it's 'Meet The Composer' release event for 'Rescuers...'.

I'm very grateful for the latest expansion, but yeah, the 1990's expansion is a brilliant program, brilliantly edited.
It reminds me of the 90's expansion of Silverado - very grateful for the complete release (which is a much tougher listen with a lot of challenging music) - but I sill love the 90's program.
