Now I'm even more confused! The Crescendo liner notes do not out and out say its a re-recording. And the FSM description of their new release says the Crescendo release was a re-recording done in Germany, except for 3 tracks that are tracks from the actual score. Here's what the FSM description says:"This CD marks the premiere release of the original soundtrack recording for The Time Machine. (An earlier recording—released on CD by GNP/Crescendo—was a 1987 re-recording conducted by the composer in Germany, except for three brief tracks from the film itself.) The complete symphonic score is presented in stereo, with "effects" passages (which Garcia himself supervised and considered part of his score) interpolated in mono."So I can believe the Crescendo disc is mostly a re-recording. It could explain why the final track is subtly different. I'm no expert in The Time Machine, so it's interesting to be digging deeper into the score.
