How does this compare with the 2003 remaster with extra tracks?
Based on the track listing I’d say we have more of the score by a significant amount.

I say please don't have cross-mixed tracks - silence between cues - i want to hear the gunbarrel withouth hearing the beginning of another piece before the gunbarrel has finished
I HATE cross-mixed tracks unless it appears like that in the film and it intended that way
Oh about TRAIN TRACKS - it was included in the BOND DROPS IN track on the OST
AND about my credits listning (Geoffrick Emmerick) - those came from AIR STUDIOS when I wrote to them in a mail

As great as it is to have this released with even more music, I think it was unnecessary to include the original
soundtrack album. I would bet that the vast majority of La La Land's customers already have either or both versions of the EMI CD or it can be easily obtained by them since it's widely available and they don't need it duplicated on this set.
Without this duplication, the expanded music and additional music could all have been fit on one CD for a total just
short of 69 minutes. This would have saved an extra charge for shipping a 2-CD set and may have saved some money on the price of the release itself.
For any future releases, I am therefore opposed to the inclusion of the original soundtrack album since this seems like
unnecessary padding.

Neil,
Thanks for explaining this about the different takes and edits. Lukas' FSM article from 2002 or 2003 didn't really explain this in the same way. I didn't know that you re-mastered the original album edits for better sound. I just thought you re-hashed the 1988 EMI CD without re-mastering or improving its sound.

From the original announcement copy shared in the first post of this thread:
"Produced by Neil S. Bulk, Disc One of this release showcases the Score Presentation, while a remaster of the original 1973 soundtrack album is housed on Disc Two, along with additional music tracks! The film score and original soundtrack album have been remixed from original 16-track masters by Chris Malone and mastered by Doug Schwartz in high resolution. (Please note only the score has been remixed – the McCartney song, the "Fillet Of Soul" tracks and "Just A Closer Walk With Thee/New Second Line" are all sourced from the original album masters.)"

I for one always envisioned the ideal expansions having a second disc with the original LP program. Those were always classic presentations, even if at times suboptimal (Thunderball rushed to the plant before recording sessions were completed, Diamonds Are Forever focusing more on source music, etc). So this approach is spot on to me.

In the generic I always prefer to have the original album included since they are often unique from what is heard in the films.
