Most of the out-of-print special edition soundtrack releases go for high collectors' prices online and elsewhere. So I'm hoping a lot of them get reissues (either through their original label or elsewhere) at the selling price of 15 to 30 bucks a pop at some point.

My top ten currently is:

Cleopatra Jones/C. Jones and the Casino of Gold (FSM)
Damnation Alley (Intrada)
The Island at the Top of the World (Intrada)
Krull (complete score) (LLL)
Living in the Age of Airplanes (Intrada)
A Prayer for the Dying (Quartet)
The Serpent and the Rainbow (deluxe) (Varese)
Shamus (Intrada)
2 Days in the Valley (Goldsmith unused) (Intrada)
The White Buffalo (remastered) (Quartet)

Who else is eager for some reissues of OOP scores?

Unfortunatley I missed out on:
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE The TV Anthology Box Set by LalaLand
THE SHADOW ( Intrada)
EXPLORERES ( Intrada)
TWO DAYS IN THE VALLEY ( Intrada)
THE RIVER WILD ( Intrada )
ICE STATION ZEBRA ( FSM)
MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY ( FSM )

0ther than these, I was able to get what I want.
Those mentioned are just too expensive to purchase ( in Europe ).

First & foremost for me:
Flowers in the Attic (Christopher Young)

I'm also annoyed with myself for missing:
House of Cards (James Horner)
In Country (James Horner)
Firebirds (David Newman)
White Fang (Basil Poledouris / Hans Zimmer)

All Intrada, I just realised!

Not really most desired but if a label would release a 5.1 (or even better) Audio-Blu-Ray-version
of Kaper's MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY I would buy it in a nano-second big grin

Mine is Spaceballs, which I know will not come back. I
missed the full package from LLL, but I’m not gonna pay somebody $50 on the secondary market for it - especially when the majority of the program is available digitally. I’d snatch up a rerelease though, or even just a used copy from somebody who isn’t insane.

For me, it would be GOODBYE MR. CHIPS (3CD), SUPERMAN IV and STANLEY & IRIS/PETE'N'TILLIE. I know it's possible to find them online, but to prices way, way beyond my ability.

The Dark Crystal, I'd jump on, and can't think of anything else right now.

Curious that there are other labels which offer(ed) special editions/expansions (Kritzerland, Music Box, Beat records, etc.) who are not mentioned - so far - in this thread.

To my thinking, though, future re-issues are less likely to materialize if the owners of the music (not the labels) are unwilling to participate in this business.

A re-release of the expanded Balto is the one I crave the most.

The first title that came to my mind reading the subject headline is Michael Kamen`s Die Hard 2. I have the original album but not the deluxe edition release because I missed out on that one.

Probably because a large fraction of Beat, Music Box and Digitmovies Records releases have been put online by the right owners.

Personally, there is nothing on my wantlist in terms of missing CD special edition. I had time to find them all in the last 10 years or so.

Billion Dollar Brain (Kritzerland/FSM originally) - not a "special edition" as such, since it was "just" the album presentation - but what an album and what a score!

Alex North's original recording for 2001.

The unused score to The China Syndrome - Michael Small.

Inspector Clouseau (another Kritzerland).

Ice Station Zebra (no idea how I missed this - it was on sale for about 120 years, and always in stock: hoping that means it was a strong seller for FSM, always requiring a re-press, rather than something that hung about, unloved).

Varese's Bernard Herrmann boxset - or, more accurately, the bits of the Bernard Herrmann boxset that weren't subsequently licensed by other parties. In particular, the remastered versions of Garden of Evil, Mrs. Muir, Centre of the Earth (all probably Varese in perpetuity titles).

A slew of early-ish Intrada Horner titles.

Elmer Bernstein's take on Torn Curtain. Again, not a "special edition", but...

And a host of others, but these are the ones that are probably the most desired.
