Well, it depends. The BSX one may have been remastered to fit a preference of "the car test", while the Quartet one may have natural sound levels/dynamics.

Personally, if the Quartet one is as I suggested it might be, I'd keep that one and rip the re-recording suite from the other and trade it off for something else I wanted. But that's just me.

Well, it depends. The BSX one may have been remastered to fit a preference of "the car test", while the Quartet one may have natural sound levels/dynamics. God forbid we remaster the project to the composer's liking. That was a big help in working on this project. Lee really had a hell of a lot import into how the BSX release sounded. For the record QUARTET did a fine job on their OOP release. When we decided to reissue it, we just wanted to go and do something a little different and wanted Lee Holdridge's input in order to make the best possible release. The new version also passed "The Car Test", it's a very common thing in the recording industry, if it sounds good in the car you tend to be in very good shape. What you have to bear in mind is that people tend to consume their music in three ways: 1.) On Headphones (Mostly earbuds) 2.) In Their Cars 3.) On Their computer while working. You have to bear that in mind when doing these projects. You want it to sound as good as possible when played in these ways. Ford A. Thaxton

I have both of these, but don't think I need both. Anyone have an opinion on either release? They both sound pretty good. The BSX gets the edge for me by including the Charles Gerhardt Beastmaster suite. Any opinions on what people consider the best release? Greg Espinoza The QUARTET release is very good and they did a fine job on it. Our Version just took a slightly different approach and we had the benefit of Lee Holdridge in the remastering of it. It's with noting we used the masters for the album that were used for the PROMO release back in the 90's and this gave JAMES NELSON a chance to give it a good spit and polish. The Full score need a bit of SPIT AND POLISH in order to fix some performance issues that Lee wanted us to address (Mostly on the Main Title) and just give it a warmer feel. We hope you folks enjoy it. Ford A. Thaxton
