Thanks Neil for this heads-up!

With the holidays just passed, I’d totally lost track of this release. Do you know if we order the set now, will the set have the correct disc 4?

I don’t know if there was news of this before, it is great that La La Land is being pro-active on replacing the error on this release. I wish other labels would be this quick to help customers.

People are getting the replacement disc now.

Has anyone ever seen a copy of the undiscovered country on vinyl lp?
Not to rain on your parade, but this was a digital recording. As evident below:

Not sure what sonic improvement would benefit from a vinyl release. Would be a nice collectable.

It’s possible the vinyl release took advantage of the remastering done for the expanded release by Intrada (“Complete score mastered from Mitsubishi digital 2-track stereo session masters recorded at 20th Century Fox, trailers mixed from 2" 24-track analog masters recorded at Sony Pictures”)

It would be fun to listen to it and compare.
Time to put in the film or the expanded cd. It’s been a while (long time)!

Ah. I’d assumed it was a new pressing. There’s been quite a resurgence of good scores on Vinyl. I guess The Undiscovered Country hasn’t been given that treatment.

But if they do, and use the work that Intrada did for the terrific 2-CD release, it would sound better.

it’s crazy that there was a vinyl release in 1992 and only in Brazil.

I'm sure I would grab a vinyl issue of STVI as well. A superb score and wonderful listening experience in the original album presentation.

Star Trek VI was a 16-bit/48kHz digital recording. The data from the tapes was captured at that rate and all work for disc 1 of the Intrada release was done at that rate. Disc 2 (the original album) was from a 16-bit/44.1 digital master. You can see blurry pictures of the tapes here.

we need some blurry pictures of the Moonraker soundtrack tapes. (As well as Golden Gun, spy who loved me, octopussy, a view to a kill and license to kill.....)
I’d gladly rebuy all of the 007 soundtracks done as 2 disc expanded sets with new mastering. $30 each would be fine with me.
