Post subject: | RAMBO: FIRST BLOOD PART II - CD 1 Remaster |
We have re-visited CD 1 of our Rambo II release to include the take of "The Map" that ends with a 13-second coda. Since we needed to create a new master and re-press the first disc anyway, I decided to go ahead and "drop in" the two wild percussion hits that go with "The Cage", although I had just informed Roger yesterday that I hadn't planned on doing so. It is I who may have caused any confusion, not Roger. Fortunately he can't fire me... though he may not trust me again for awhile. ![]() Jerry recorded "The Cage" with brief rests built in for three bursts of percussion to emphasize when Rambo kills three of the compound guards. Interestingly, the first of these three percussion tracks was already mixed into the cue during the sessions. It has always been there. The second and third were recorded completely separate to facilitate dropping them in later and synchronizing with the action, depending on how the scene was ultimately edited during post-production. No prior release of the soundtrack has ever included these last two percussion hits, and Jerry himself left them out of his own album assembly back in 1985. I stayed with what Jerry had done and asked Roger to let people know accordingly when informing them about my remastering the disc to include the coda with "The Map". But once I was revisiting the master anyway, and since the cue already plays on CD 2 as Jerry preferred it, I figured I would go that one extra mile and newly remix "The Cage" to include all three percussion hits exactly as they are heard in the finished film. So listeners get the cue both ways. (My apologies, Jerry. I just had to do it.) We'll re-press CD 1 shortly and make them available at no charge to anyone who would like a copy. If you haven't yet purchased our Rambo II release, the timing will be perfect. We ran out of them and needed to re-press the set in any case. So all future sets should include the re-mastered CD 1. We'll post here when the re-pressing has occurred. Thank you for your patience. There are some who will be happy about this news and some who will figure we're making a bit of a fuss over nothing. Jerry referred to me during a recording session once as wanting "every bloody note... including the orchestra tuning up". I'll pass on the tuning up experience, but otherwise I do want every note of this masterpiece and I want it all prim and proper. I think I finally have it as such... and you can too in what I'm guessing will be just about three weeks. ![]() --Doug |

Incredible Customer Service here, Doug! Since I purchased my set from Screen Archives, do I need to ask them for the replacement or could I get this replacement directly from Intrada.? |

My Dad just snagged a copy for me from Amazon (although Intrada is still listed as the seller). Now I wish he'd waited. |

i disagree - music does not breath with cross-fade effects they should be removed unless they appear idenical to the music in the film The warehouse / end title - from RAIDERS - good examble on how they can Work for good Bonus tracks on FOR YOUR EYES ONLY - a very bad examble on how cross-fade-effects can ruin a score Sorry, but there is no artistic choice with cross-fade - it's either for or not - and i'm not for it, it's dumb and takes away the listening experience becaurse you don't the a moment if i want cross-fade effects i can do it them myself on an editing program the music flows perfectly without them BTW |

I just placed a sizable CD order yesterday INCLUDING the Rambo set, for which I'm especially stoked. Thank you for all of your awesome work on that powerful score. It's one of my all-time favorite Goldsmith scores from the 80's. On an unrelated note... you really caught my attention with your mention of "burger". I hope you're taking Christian to InNOut! hahaha ![]() |
