As I understand it, the music on the CD you bought is a mix of tracks from 2 reel to reel tapes intended for a vinyl LP album release in 1981. At the time this CD was produced, they only had this edited tape to work with but not the originals. Now they seem to have found both originals.

I simply wrote to the e-mail address at the back of the booklet!

Saban's tape(s) for Ulysses were rumored to be destroyed or damaged to the point of being useless but seems they found the original Saban/Levy tape for Ulysses 31 from 1981 but I have no idea in what condition.

Anyway, a 2 CD release is certainly an option because all of the music with Saban/Levy would fill more than 130 minutes.

All cues individually would probably be over 100 tracks! I think they will probably put 2 cues on each track totaling 50 tracks although I did not ask them about this.


Thanks for the info.
I would be looking forward to a complete release!!
This is one of the best animation soundtracks!

No problem!

Hope Lalaland reads this. This would be a fitting release after "masters of the universe"!!

I'm not sure if this series was huge in USA.

This series is unknown in the USA but was huge in Western Europe, especially France and the UK but also Spain and even Australia.
The mediocre Loga-rythme CD release from 2001 sold over 10.000 copies!! So I think a better and complete edition could sell as much.
Let's hope someone is interested for this release...

So, it's highly unlikely that a US company would be interested in this.
That doesn't mean of course that noone else could do it from Europe.
And why not the same company that did this new cd..
From what I know, it went well, didn't it?

I bet also most of those 10.000 copies of the original cd were sold in Europe.
Ulysses was huge here in Greece too!

True, but most US soundtrack companies sell their products in Europe nowadays so why not?

No idea which European soundtrack company would want to do it but if someone is, contact these guys!

From what I heard, the company who did the CD you bought is not primarily involved in producing soundtrack CD's. From what I understood, they would prefer someone else to produce it.

Yes, most of the Loga-Rythme sales were in France followed by the UK, Spain, Germany and countries like Italy, Australia and Greece like you say!

Maybe this message should be posted on a European soundtrack forum but I don't know any!!
