Average Rating: 
Rating: - The Almost Complete Soundtrack Collection
For the past few years, soundtracks to well known motion pictures like Star Wars, Superman, and The Lord of the Rings have been given the royal treatment: boxed sets with every minute of music included and ordered according to the movie (which in the case of Superman and Empire Strikes Back even included some cues that were never in the film).
We've waited a long time for the Indiana Jones films to get their long overdue "completist" makeover, and with Indiana Jones: The Soundtrack Collection, we come as close as we've ever gotten. As many reviews before me have noted, not everything is included, but chief for me is the absence of the "Source Music" that one hears in the background, particularly in Temple of Doom. To note, the Star Wars Trilogy and Superman soundtracks each have source music tracks included (Jabba's Baroque Recital, Lex Luthor's Luau, etc), yet it's visibly lacking for Indy.
Anyways, the ups and downs of this set:
First, the sound quality is beyond perfect. All discs are clean, clear, solid. Many tracks that could have been simple Copy/Pastes from previous CD soundtracks were given just as much of a makeover as the newly released tracks. From a technical point of view, the audio is excellent.
Second, the previously unreleased tracks will be a new enjoyment to most listeners who never bothered to track down "bootleg" soundtracks that existed online for years. I remember getting a complete uncut soundtrack of Last Crusade almost 10 ... Read More
Rating:  - Great set, not complete, but still worth it.
Ok, here is what I thought of it after a thorough listen.
It's a great collection considering the last time I had these they were on cassette tape.
Sound quality..
This top notch on most of the tracks.
There are a few tracks though like on "Temple of Doom" and "Last Crusade" that have a muffled sound to them. They aren't as crisp sounding as others. I guess they got it cleaned up as good as they could.
Music..
A fair warning, if you are looking for a complete soundtrack set with these you'll be disappointed.
Another reviewer said that some music is truncated (trimmed down) and missing. He's correct on that. A few tracks in "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "Temple of Doom", and "Last Crusade" have missing or truncated (trimmed down) tracks. They could have used more of the 5th disc to put these on, you'll notice if you flip the disc over there was plenty of space left. They also used "album versions" for some of the songs instead of film versions".
Even though this set isn't complete I still think its worth it because we get a few tracks that has never been released before. It's a joy to me because like I said the last time I had these 3 were on cassette. Also if your an Indian Jones fan you will love this.
Box it came in..
It's nice but its a tight fit. If your worried about tearing or damaging the sleeves I would recommend holding the box at an angle and tapping it on the back to get the individual sleeves ... Read More
Rating: - 5 stars for the music, 3 stars for the presentation
Since the 1980s, Indiana Jones music has been pretty hard to come by. The soundtrack to Temple of Doom has been out of print for ages, very hard and very expensive to track down. Raiders was given an expanded release in the 1990s but went out of print pretty quickly. Last Crusade has been available on CD pretty much since it first came out. Now, finally, we have them all together in one set along with the soundtrack to the recently released Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
First, the good news. Temple of Doom and Last Crusade are expanded so as to be nearly complete. The original soundtrack to Temple of Doom in particular suffered greatly from its low running time, a mere 40 minutes. What was on the original album was great, but clearly a lot of key scoring moments were not included. Now with this set, we have close to 90 minutes of the score and it is a revelation. In the scene when Indy takes the Sankara Stones, we can finally hear the glorious choral piece. The thrilling music for the fight on the bridge finale can finally be heard. There isn't a dull note in the whole score, from the exciting fight and chase music to the suspenseful to the tragic music for the starving villagers to the playful love theme. This is a masterpiece of a film score nearly equal to the original Raiders score, Temple of Doom alone is worth the price of this set. We are also given a couple extra tracks from Raiders that have never before been released. We have about double the amount of music from Last ... Read More
Rating: - Great to have for the unreleased music...but marred by timing, pitch problems and edited cues
As an expanded edition of the 3 earlier films, the set contains a lot more music not available for many years. While it was exciting to hear the many new tracks, it was really disappointing that the most exciting track on "Raiders" - Desert Chase - is the edited cue missing about a minute of music that was available in the earlier DCC Classics album.
There were no information that the set contains edited cues on the packaging. Only when one has the set and reads inside to find Laurent states that he uses the original album edits.
Not only that there were pitch problems in Raiders and Temple of Doom where some cues are faster/slower resulting in either pitch higher or lower especially when compared to earlier editions of Raiders and Temple of Doom. Raiders - Map Room - is worst in being faster and out of pitch. One gets the feeling that the tracks were either speed up to make room for more tracks...or just plain sloppy mastering...
While claiming to be remastering from the original 24 tracks masters, tracks available previously are used to for the remaster, and not new transfer. Only the unreleased tracks are transferred from the original 24 tracks masters.
Sound quality is clear and more upfront but it is no excuse for the pitch problems...probably somebody transferred the mastertapes indifferently.
The Last Crusade is for the most part are free from these defects. Even though these are remastered editions, they should have been handled and ... Read More
Rating:  - This is it...this is where Forrestal cashed in.
I've been yearning for a serious collection of the "Indiana Jones" scores since 1993, when they put out that first "Star Wars" CD box-set. I was thrilled by the DCC release of "Raiders" a few years later, but always had to make do with my cassette-tape version of "Temple of Doom" and a CD of "Last Crusade" that didn't bother to include the entirety of "Indy's Very First Adventure." (Um, wasn't his very first adventure being born?)
Now, thanks to Concord, I have a handsomely packaged, beautifully remastered set of all THREE "Indiana Jones" movies. (Yes, I know that "Crystal Skull" is in there, too...but I don't consider that a real movie.)
Almost all of my favorite musical moments from the series are finally available, though astute fans have pointed out that there are several omissions. For the most part, I can live with these missing pieces.
But what about the awesome book-burning song by the Nazi pep band? That's sort of the "Lapti Nek" of the Indiana Jones movies. I always walk around whistling that tune after watching "Last Crusade."
