[net.sf-lovers] Blade Runner music, RotJ

3722trn (12/30/82)

Last night I bought an album of music from Blade Runner.  It is
called an 'orchestral adaptation' of music from the Blade Runner,
by the New American Orchestra.
  It is NOT a K-tel version of the soundtrack ('operators are standing by').
The jacket features some stills from the movie on the back, and
the front features the movie poster.  It also was released by
Warner bros., who released the movie.
  I've only listened to it once.  It does capture some of that
haunting, moody feel of the soundtrack.  I'd prefer a soundtrack by
Vangelis, but this is the closest we may ever get.
  
I also saw some new previews for RotJ, ie different from the previews
that went out with the last release of Empire.  Some quick scenes:
 1. Luke in a black version of his Dagobah fatiques, with blue light
    saber.
 2. people on anti-grav motorcycles racing through a forest.
 3. han and leia reunited.
 4. Two alien types, who appear to have a greater role than just
    supplying atmosphere.
