No to The Blue Danube!? Bloody hell. Each to their own I guess.
I don't really find much substance to most baroque music. I don't mean that I find the music lacking in quality, I mean there's Bach for crying out loud.... but I find it far too "flowery". Too delicate. I like something with a bit of meat on its bones (in more ways than one), and that's why the late romantic and early 20th century periods are generally my favourites as far as classical music is concerned (although I naturally like a lot of Beethoven and Mozart).
No to The Blue Danube though!!? Honestly!
...although the grandeur of the late classical and the whole romantic era is unquestionably shiveringly good, still the work of Bach and Vivaldi, to name just THE 2 of the Baroque era, are beyond words outstanding.

NP : Day of the Dead - John Harrison
An underrated movie and an underrated score in my opinion .
The OST kicks off with the brilliant "Dead Suite" - a 19 minute piece of music containing the music from the first five minutes of the film and then uses other memorable cues and themes that continue along the storyline of the movie . The suite is followed by "Breakdown" , "Escape Invasion" & "The Dead Walk" three other great tracks . Also included on the CD are two vocal versions called "If Tomorrow Comes" & "The World Inside Your Eyes" - one of which was used for the closing credits . There are also 5 bonus tracks with various cues and sound effects of the movie . If you like tense , military-sounding action driven cues , combined with more cues that give fleeting feelings of hope and a better future through more Caribbean sounding themes then this one's for you . Or if you're simply a zombie movie fan , it's a must buy !
'We're bein' punished by the Creator . He visited a curse on us . Maybe He didn't want to see us blow ourselves up , put a big hole in the sky . Maybe He just wanted to show us He's still the Boss Man . Maybe He figure , we gettin' too big for our britches , tryin' to figure His shit out .'"Simplicity is the key to brilliance" -

NP: Slumdog Millionaire - A.R Rahman
I watched the film the other day (really nice experience) and decided to listen more closely to how the score worked in there. I was surprised to see how little actual score there is in the film! In fact the 16 min of score tracks on the OST (Riots, Mausam & Escape, Liquid Dance, Latika's Theme and Millionaire) is pretty much all that was there. The rest of the "score" consisted of the techno songs like O Saya and Paper Planes put in the background, and some source music from the original "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" show. I cannot understand how this was even nominated for the Oscar when previously Alan Menken's (very good) score to Enchanted was disqualified on the grounds of not having enough score??
Anyway, I've grown to quite enjoy most of this one, especially Mausam & Escape. I loved how the opening guitar melody worked in the film, and the high strings/frentic sitar worked well for the chase sequences. Latika's Theme also worked really nicely, especially for the final scene (before Jai Ho), nice touch with the sitar and tanpura. The other tracks didn't do much for me in the film... I especially felt Riots should've been more frantic, fast-paced and nerve-wracking. But O Saya worked well for the opening chase sequence. Didn't really care for the other techno songs, but Jai Ho was a great song for the finale, really enjoyed it!
Overall while I liked this album I still feel it's hyped, it's a good score but there were far superior ones last year. -

True, nobody doubts it's going to work in the movie but it's ALL THE SAME TRICKS. Same instrumentation, arrangements, same philosophy behind the themes, same timpani and middles eastern percussion, same rhythms and tempi, same phrasing and dynamics, SAME SOUND, same everything.
luckily I must say it picked near the end, because with the theme of Shirley Walker he was able to do something different. I must concur it sounds not completely like his rest, but there are several tracks that fit the bill thoughwaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh -

If you are only familiar with the 2CD Special Edition releases then of course the Anthology release of Star Wars would sound different and seem to contain different music.
The anthology release, next to the original LP, is the best sounding master of the original soundtrack recording. It is much warmer and more natural than the over processed special edition release.
As for the "different tracks" - what was presented in the anthology box were the original LP edits. "The Lastl Battle" for instance contains music from 4 different scenes if I can remember correctly.
