Ichabod and Mr. Toad - the Soundtrack!

For those of you who may not know, the 1949 featurette "Ichabod and Mr. Toad" had one of the most innovative soundtracks. Composed by Oliver Wallace (who voiced Mr. Winkie in the film, as well as composing for other notable Disney features like Pinocchio), the score used the Wagnerian technique of leitmotifs, or recurring themes - just like Star Wars has "Leia's Theme," there exists a "Toad Theme."
This movie, for whatever reason, had no official "soundtrack release," so I finally was frustrated enough to do it myself!

Thanks for the post, I haven't listened to this yet, but the first thing I noticed was that the track numbering is pretty strange.
10-15 and 34 seem to be missing
The outtake tracks are duplicate track numbers (intentional?)
These could just be metadata issues, but since the files don't contain track numbers I can't be sure.
Any chance you could provide an info file or some more details?

The track numbering is very strange. There should be 30 total tracks, once the "outtake" tracks are removed. They are just empty space, and I just used them to help me figure out where I was in the track.
Just to check - those are FLAC and are just the soundtrack, right?

The changes that George Lucas has made over the years to Star Wars is the equivalent of someone keying your car. On an intellectual level, you know that the car still works, and its only marred a fraction of a percent of the paintjob. On an emotional level, every time you see it, it's all you can focus on, and it makes you want to rip someone's face off.

I agree.
Thanks.. But confusing. We could do with more info. What is the order of the tracks? They're not numbered!
What is the source of these tracks? How were they ripped/prepared?
etc etc

The tracks should be numbered as soon as you drop them into a media player (I used MediaMonkey, but I tested and tried with iTunes, Windows Media, etc). They were ripped by isolating the rear channels of the surround sound mix from the DVD, which had just the soundtrack and a few scattered sound effects, but no words. If you really wanted I could make a cue file - I just figured that storing the info in the id3 tags was the way to go...
Any other questions?

Padawan LearnerAh, I see. The tracks don't automatically number foobar, which is what I use. However, I found a way of showing the numbers and reordering manually.
thanks

Oh, OK. I knew there was some explanation for why it wasn't working. :)
What are everyone's impressions?
