problem number1:
i should never have listened to it quietly! It is incredibly powerful when blasted at an ear-bursting volume!
problem 2:
i should listen more carefully- there's definitely some Vader theme tucked in there.....
the score is picking up in my estimations.....still doesn't feel very star wars though

I'm sure there's a lot more Str Wars type music in the actual film.
I agree with you about the end credits though...does seem to be a mis-match of themes...Doesn't flow very well. But at leat it ends on the same notes as the OT soundtracks..You know with the big fan fare thing, unlike 1 & 2 which just seem to end.
Dunno why they done that with 1 & 2, and it really bugged me

It's pretty good quality, too!

"Star Wars: A Musical Journey" isn't really quite fair.
"Star Wars: A Collection of Self-Contained Music Videos that have NO REAL Narrative Save a FEW Threads and Ian McDiarmid's Introductions that ALMOST Come Close to Maybe Making This Collection a Cohesive Work" would have made a much better title....I mean...it wouldn't be misleading.
It is an interesting watch, but most of the scenes shown in most of the videos are a jumble mess of images, and some poorly cut. I have no problem if, for example: "A Narrow Escape" is going to combine many narrow escapes from many of the films cut to "The Asteroid Field"...just don't have the intro talk exclusively about TESB's narrow escape...at least warn me I'll see the asteroid chase from AOTC. OR, if "A Daring Rescue" is going to show many daring rescues, don't hype the Death Star escape and make me watch Leia rescue Han from carbonite while listening to the lament for Obi-Wan just before "TIE Attack". Further, someone explain how "A Sanctuary Moon" has anything to do with the Gungan battle from TPM being set to "The Forest Battle Concert Suite"...I mean really.
This is frustrating...especially since I was expecting a "Musical Journey" through the Saga. The narrative, while slightly dry...yields the impression that the forthcoming videography in chronological in documenting the story. Worse than disappointment are the few moments where the editors show they could have in fact done just that. The concluding two videos ("A Life Redeemed" and "A New Day Dawns"), in particular, illustrate that a cohesive storytelling effort would have been magical...and ultimately more successful.
Thankfully...this is only a freebie...not a hyped release, doomed for disappointment.
What I'll do is take this as inspiration and ask for people's help in cutting video to my SYMPHONY FOR A SAGA...in order to create the ultimate musical journey. Check out what I'm interested in doing at http://musicofstarwars.tripod.com.
Thanks...T - OUT!

however... i can admit when i like something...
and this soundtrack is by far the best money i have ever spent on a CD.... but lets all admit that the extra DVD it comes with takes all the credit!!!
although i wish it could have been longer and encompassed more of the music of Star Wars we can definatly expect that at a later date... hopefully...
listening to the soundtrack in 5.1 dolby digital which seeing scenes from the movie is nothing more than a pleasure for the ears while still giving your eyes the candy it needs to keep things interesting....
absolutly a must buy for any Star Wars fan!
however a couple things i do find annoying...
Ian doing the introductions.... not only is he horrible at reading off a teleprompter... but couldnt they have gotten someone who knows about the music... like lets say.... John Williams??? maybe im just asking for too much here but it definatly would have been nice to hear what he had to say....
and 2 the dialogue during the music is a complete "no no" to me..... they made that DVD so we could listen to the music... and the dialogue at certain parts drowns out Williams wonderful score... although it is not too frequent... when it does happen it is annoying....
lastly all the OT footage is from the 2004 DVDs....
so we have pink and green lightsabers... and CGI as far as the eye can see...
other than that though.... a wonderful new way to listen and watch the Star Wars soundtracks!

Updated:
I found the answer to the thread at jwfan.net.
Requires inserting Duel of the Fates, interestingly enough. Also involves splitting one of the tracks in two. I'm working on both.
