Just a couple of updates: First, we should have replacement discs for Ivanhoe. So if you were annoyed by the clicks on this release, feel free to request a replacement disc. Second, Last Starfighter will be back in stock. However, it's not the same. The packaging will be the same, the program will be the same, but the album number will be different. Under the theory that perfection is a journey, not a destination, we thought we could do a lot better. As you recall for the expanded release we sourced the multi-track masters rather than the 1/4" masters we used for the first edition. After careful examination, we decided the 1/4" has vastly superior sound. The brass is punchier and the recording crisper overall. The "new" source we had used previously was a bit...mushier. So we've reverted to the 1/4" masters and did a high res transfer to work from. It's never sounded better. |

I am sold on the Young Sherlock Holmes upgrade in light of this Last Starfighter reissue. I initially dismissed it, but I guess you can't ignore something that was done by one of the very best engineers. They got paid the big bucks for a reason. |

You know, all these moves away from the multi-tracks sort of vindicates that Italian guy that everyone shat on years back. He had quite an ear for this stuff, and passionately so. |

I've been listening to the remastered Last Starfighter album since it arrived early this week and WOW! The sound quality/mastering is stunning! It's so good to revisit this wonderful Safan score and be blown back by the thunderous sound. I just love how the theme can have such grand, heroic power and energy on the one hand and can be so wistful, tender, dreamlike, and even melancholy on the other. For me, this is one of the greatest achievements in film scoring. |
