The first official soundtrack by Vangelis himself.  It was a real treat to finally listen to Vangelis' music, as done by him.  The music was great and "Rachel's Song" was just awesome.  Some of the tracks, like "Rachel's Song", unless I’m mistaken, were original compositions and not actually in the movie.  One item I did not like in most cases was the overdubbing of dialog (however on track 12, I felt it actually fit).  Also a nitpick, on track 2, this is one of those original compositions not in the movie, but it features dialog dubbed on top from the movie.  If u listen very closely you can hear the original music from the scene in the background :-P

The 2nd and most recent of the official releases of the soundtrack.  The 1st CD is a rerelease of the 1st soundtrack, the 2nd cd is some new material and the 3rd is original compositions not in the movie.  The 2nd CD has some really great new themes on it.  Not really an expert on the music so I don’t know where some of those themes come from, #1,#6, #9, #10.  CD3 is all original music inspired by the movie.  Only nit I have is that the music seems to have extra sounds added over top of the music.  For example, #12 “Fading Away” is just “tears in the Rain” sans dialog, but it has this effect noise at the beginning that seems to bridge one song to the next.  It’s not in the movie so I don’t get what its for.

(more to come)
