As I recall, "Orca" was recalled because the label didn't get the rights from the studio. They just asked for permission, like that has ever been a thing, from the people who had the tapes.
It's like they've gone around and had nearly any mention at FSM removed.

I believe the problem was the Carol Connors song "We are one" that was done without Morricone's permission (added to one of his instrumental tracks).
The problem was certainly not the song, but that Music Box only dealt with Warner Chappell in France and could not deal with the actual music publisher Radiofilmusica (Laurentiis) in Italy who unfortunately have been very uncooperative during the last few years. Therefore of course they also couldn´t locate the complete recording sessions in France.
This here was part of their press release text:
"As the complete recording sesssions could not be located, Music Box Records was only provided access to the original album master tape vaulted at Warner Chappell Music France, except for the theme song mastered from the best vinyl source available."
You can read my explanations here:

And regarding ORCA, is this a more complete version than the Quartet (non)release? Does it contain the vocal that Morricone didn't like/sanction?
Quartet had never anything to do with ORCA. 
It can be clearly seen that ORCA will have 14 tracks which means probably three more (= Tema dell´Orca II, III and IV) than have been released on previous LPs/CDs.

I don't think it's been mentioned,yet but Beat records has 'La Chiave' listed as a single disc (same contents) coming on 15/11 on Cabum/Beat/CF soundtracks.Make of that what you will.

Looks a wonderful presentation a strong selection of scores, if I wasn't deep with Morricone I would buy this instantly Orca release looks identical too Legend. Happy Birthday maestro what a tribute collection this is.
The Orca release contains three new tracks, including (if the soundbite on the quiz is anything to go by) the opening music which has never been released before.

Got very-confused with the other tracks on disc. - Actually all the tracks-total definitely through me off, yep, I would love to buy it - but like some Quartets or Music Box expanded, I tend to leave them not much value, I don't mean that in a crude way, I just don't buy many doubles, unless there more particular tastes, thanks for the update.

For anyone who is interested in this. The main theme from Orca is track 12 on the Orca cd. I've waited 40 years to hear this, it's absolutely gorgeous.
The book itself is large 29cmx21.5cm and it's 4cm thick. there are 9 pages, each containing two discs, if I have a problem with the set it's the fact that the discs are a bugger to get out, but that apart this is a very well presented set. It's going to take a while to work through this.
