Sounds a bit poor to me. whats the point in releasing a SECOND album? WHy not make a better first one? I have always supported Lucasfilm for their cash-ins in everything, the delayed releases, the British shafting. But THIS takes the chocolate chip cookie!


Better would be make a larger original, and thenleave it! The music may be good, but most of it will be rubbish to listen too.

Having said that, I can never get to listen to my favourite music piece(The 'arming' music in From Dusk til Dawn- Damn, Revell is a genius. At least I have mexican standoff), so at least you do get your favourite bit

Ouch is right. I haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but it didn't seem that bad to me. And I don't buy the crap about no additional info on John Williams being there. What do you want? A frickin autoboigraphy? Also, sure putting Darth Maul on the front was a shady pick, but again, what do you want???? Anyway, sure the cd's aren't perfect, but they're NOT as bad as they are describing.

Wow, that was pretty harsh! I was going to ask my wife to put that CD in my X-Mas stocking but I think I'll pass. I never got around to getting the SE: ROTJ Soundtrack a few years back so I think I'll ask for that. :(

That reviewer was just a regular person right, I doubt he knows anything. Isn't the special edition soundracts also arranged the same way? Regardless I will probably still get it.

[Jedi Master Kyle]

It's not as good as the SE sountracks, but still good.

From what the reviewer said the TPM Ultimate soundtrack is not the original Williams score. A lot of people were looking forward to hearing the Williams score before it got hacked up because of the edits Lucas later made. The SE scores were pretty much complete. I've got the ANH and ESB versions and they're simply amazing!

The complete ROTJ score rocks. I have it, and it is quite possibly my favourite soundtrack. If you don't have it get it. If you can't get it, find someone who has it and steal their copy. ;)
