The problem with rerecordings, if reconstructed by ear (as I think would be the case of Moonraker), is that they would miss the sections unused/faded out in the movie and alternates. That’s why it is so great to have a release from the complete tapes.
Yes indeed. There's only about 10 minutes of AUDIBLE unreleased music in the film, so that's all that could have been reconstructed by ear, but just look at how much more new music there is on this release than that.
There's also a danger of missing details. When Network released their Blu-Ray of Raise The Titanic with a partial isolated score, we could hear details in some of the music cues that were not obvious in the fully mixed film soundtrack, and therefore not transposed to the rerecording.
I want to say, I'm not knocking rerecordings from by-ear transcriptions, I'm just acknowledging that those are the two real-world limitations of such projects, and it doesn't detract from my gratitude towards them.
Cheers
I'm particularly interested this time in how this sounds compared the various film mixes I've heard 500 times whilst watching the film, and the dreadful EMI CD. The snippets thus far are superb, but I am mainly curious about the mixes - Corrine Put Down for example sounds completely different in the film, and Flight into Space is a different mix (or take?) on the CD. This new release will be fascinating.

Fantastic news. This fleshes out the mystery of John Barry saying that he originally envisioned a 2 LP set (60 to 80 minutes).
I do think the song is underrated. Like many, not most, I think the two previous Barry/Bassey songs are among the very best in the series, but that does not diminish how good this song is.
Can't wait to hear the Paul Williams lyrics. The only thing missing is the Johnny Mathis recording . . .

My response to everyone who told me the Moonraker tapes had been lost is equivalent to Chris Farley’s SNL sketch where he snaps after being told he’s drinking decaf coffee.

Decent film. Thought George Baker played a good part. Lol
Joking aside, another great release from LLL, certainly reaping the benefits of the trust EON have in them. They've secured some amazing releases in a very short space of time. Bravo

Holy shit! What a huge release! I'm not even going to sit one day on this before buying it. It's an instant purchase. 5,000 units is a lot but I wonder how quickly this will sell out.
