Is a new recording for this really needed? James Fitzpatrick has been adamant that all of the music that was recorded was included on the Silva release, and it sounds great to me.
If he said that, he's 100% wrong. But I'm pretty sure James only said that all of the *surviving* music was included on the Silva release, so unless a new source is uncovered we will probably have to content ourselves with the footwarmer in very poor sound quality, just as with Link.

The film Version of The Unicorns has a 30 second bridge for French Horns (absent from all albums) that make an already fabulous cue simply incredible. Sure, one can say "Why bitch over missing a mere 30 seconds?", but the content within it evokes more power (IMHO) than the whole 8 minute piece.
Perhaps it was recorded as an insert?
Either way, the inclusion of that (if possible) would have me rebuying the score.
I'd buy a Tadlow re-recording if they included it!

Leigh Phillips is preparing "Legend Suite" for Prague concert dedicated to Ridley Scott films.
There will never be a new recording. OST sounds great and Silva album is perfect.

Not entirely true. The expanded Unicorns track was available on the original Film Trax CD and the Japanese CD. I have no idea why it was dropped from the expanded editions. There’s one more unreleased cue that I can think of. And those masters do exist.

Whoa, Roger. Thanks for the info. Now I guess I have to seek out that earlier edition. Is that the only bit of music dropped from the original album on subsequent expansion, or are there other alternate versions you know of?
When you say "those masters do exist" are you referring to the Unicorns insert and this one other cue, or are you referring to the full Legend masters more generally? Obviously there is a good deal of unreleased music, as heard on the footwarmer and discussed in film context on this site:

Thanks for the info. Please excuse my confusion, I have both the Up Art (Filmtrax) 1986 CD and the 1993 expanded Silva UK CD and both discs have "The Unicorns" at 7:53 - does this differ from later versions?

Yes, but does it include the awesome 30 second French horn bridge that was brought up?

Well I have a b*** which contains the alternate Unicorns that DOES have the french horn bridge. So I can confirm that it does exist.
In addition, there is an alternate "Dress Waltz" and two versions of an unreleased cue "Hall of Columns".
I can NOT imagine where I got this, picked it up at the ass end of cyberspace I suppose!
