CD rip of La-La Land's newly-remastered two-disc edition of James Horner's score for the 1982 film based on the original three-track digital-to-analog audio masters. This is a full-score release featuring 21 tracks instead of the nine that appeared on the original Atlantic LP and GNP CD. Disc 1 contains the full score, Disc 2 the original soundtrack version plus alternate unused or unreleased tracks.
Sound quality is demonstrably better than the original vinyl or CD releases (I have both). But equally valuable is the small-print 21-page program booklet that explains why the then-28-year-old Horner was selected for the project and, in detail, his scoring decisions and how they were intended to illuminate a given scene.
Highly recommended if the genre floats your boat.
