Where I work the CD manager recently told me about the latest batch of soundtracks being released and those suggested as tie-ins to other sales or whatever. She's great in making sure I don't spend too much of my CD money on imports :P

Anyway, she brought up Indiana Jones. I assumed she was talking about KotCS, but also on the sheet was the "Trilogy". I said yes to that in addition to KotCS, thinking it'd be a well-timed re-release boxset... unfortunately it's the trilogy re-rerecordings disc. :(

No biggie, I don't mind giving re-recordings a go every now and then. I haven't listened to that one yet but I did ask her to let me know if any info popped up about a re-release of the original scores. Nothing yet, so I checked just now.

Soundtrack.Net, a reliable site, has an article you can read here. The important part being:

"This fall, Concord Music Group will also reissue the soundtracks to the original Indiana Jones trilogy, which have been out of print for nearly a decade, as part of a four-CD boxed set."

That was music to my ears. I imagine this will either be 1-disc OSTs for each film and a disc of unreleased bonus material, or one of the films will take two discs. While not a definitive 5/6-disc CD set like I was hoping for, having the chance to own these on CD is wonderful. I'll be snapping this box up for sure.
