Giant in scope and sound, Jerry Goldsmith’s rip-roaring action score is an indestructible, hard-charging marvel of orchestration.

Produced by Bruce Botnick and Neil S. Bulk and entirely re-mixed and mastered in high resolution by Botnick from first generation ½’’ analog studio vault elements, this special release is limited to 3000 units and features exclusive, in depth liner notes by “The Fantasy Film Worlds of Irwin Allen” author Jeff Bond and stingingly sharp art direction by Dan Goldwasser.

Nice to see they've separated the Main Title from the Red Two track. It always bugged me that the Prometheus release opening track went on for 7 minutes.

This release is MQA encoded. Listeners with an MQA decoder can enjoy this album in high resolution, up to 176.4 kHz/24-bit, from these Compact Discs. For more information please visit https://www.mqa.co.uk/. I knew the day would come that this would be re-released, and I knew that day I'd be on the fence. On the one hand, I already have the original motion picture soundtrack LP as well as the expanded film score release from Prometheus a few years back. So I thought I take a pass. But now the MQA is the kicker. I have a few high-res files, but no MQA encoded audio CD so far, and I would be interested in playing around with that format. Add to that extended Jeff Bond liner notes, and sigh... I have to shell out some more dough for this score yet once more. :-) (Of course, it is an excellent score, that helps.)

Gee... should I remind that a CD isn't meant to be ripped out, converted to digital files on your computer and thrown away after. It's a physical product that's supposed to be enjoyed as what it is, put in a player and, well... played.
