Nick Redman o tom preco este nevysiel kompletny Alien.
It is nothing to do with Silva, who were themselves only short-term licencees. When Silva issued Alien on CD, they licensed it from Polygram (UK) who were then the owners of the old 20th Century Fox Records catalog. (Recently Harkit Records in England has been bootlegging many of these titles.) Polygram itself has subsequently been bought, swallowed, and regurgitated by various entities, such as Vivendi/Universal/NBC and a conglomerate owned by the heir to the Seagrams empire. The material that existed on the old Fox LP is lost in the aforementioned morass. The material not on the old Fox LP is owned and administered by Fox Music, which is why we put it on the "Goldsmith at Fox" boxset. To get around the rights quagmire, we also issued it as an isolated score on the first Alien DVD, which is now out of print, but one of the reasons why I have declined to pursue it as a CD, is that we can't find the multi-track masters, despite looking all over the place for them, and in the UK as well. I'm not satisfied with the sound quality that we currently have, and until that changes the title will continue to be on moratorium. Hope that clarifies once and for all, the "Where's Alien?" complaints. |
