as has been said, it reads "complete original motion picture score" in the spine
Well, regardless, it's not surprising that the composer has kept a record/recording of his own work. I doubt that falls in the category 'illegal acquisition of a bootleg'.
Perhaps a compromise - in the liners of (what's hopefully a C&C) release, a quick blurb on what would have been in the 40-minute album. FSM's sidebar on the aborted Superman IV album was a perfect way to go - I carved up a playlist out of that and it flowed rather well, imo (yes, in direct contradiction of my C&C thread, but hey, even evil has standards).
I would want every second of the music from the movie if possible (with instructions in the liner notes on how to assemble Goldenthal's album presentation).
Indeed. No one is exchanging boots here. In fact, isn't the whole 'bootleg' thing a defunct point when the composer himself is just keeping a copy of his own score recording?
