Yes, very instructive. And considering the way John Williams had to work on the score, I'm not surprised the two tracks don't match exactly. He couldn't score a 8min track in one stroke.

The two big editing changes I made on the OE are about the "Carbon Freeze" and Vader's Trap" suite, and "Jedi Master Revealed/Mynock Cave". A chance that the only sessions shown in the BBC documentary are about these ones !

I won't change my mind about the "Jedi Master Revealed" link with "Mynock Cave" as I edited them. However we can see that from the fanfare I removed to the end of "Mynock Cave" it is one entire cue. Then it is now obvious I'll have to place the entire cue in the bonus tracks. That's ok, you'll be able to appreciate both the new edit with the RSO track wich sounds powerful and the whole SE track wich sounds not bad at all.
