rating: 5 QuoteLets set #2 aside, shall we? Here's info on PREDATOR:Quote
The history of the original "Predator" score by Alan Silvestri has been a difficult one. There was a fictional bootleg company known as "Alien Records" that produced three versions of the score from 1997 to 2001. The tracks varied a bit from bootleg to bootleg: For example, one bootleg would include "Long Tall Sally" by Little Richard and seven minutes from "Blown Away" while another version would have music from Silvestri's "Stop! Or my Mom will Shoot!" added at the end as a bonus track. The official release of the score in 2003 by Varase Sarabande was part of their special Club Series and, get this......it was limited to ONLY 3000 COPIES!!! Because of the super-low production numbers it remains one of the most sought after and EXPENSIVE film scores to date. I've seen prices of the bootlegs on Ebay range from $90.00 (used/re-sealed) to $200.00 (new/shrink-wrapped)! A great action score? You bet! A lot of money? You bet! Is owning this score worth that much? Well, that's up to you (I own a copy myself, but I didn't pay THAT much for it). Here is the track listing for my own copy (The 2001 Alien Records Edition) as well as the official Varase Sarabande release:

Yeah I loved the movie and was crazy to purchase this soundtrack. I recommend it to all who would like to buy it.

The shipment was done exactly in the specified date which amazed me. However I received it with it's case broken in a 2 cms area. So for transport I would give it on a scale to 10 : 5.

Kind regards

rating: 3 QuoteFor Fans of the FirstQuote
Of course, many soundtrack fans bought this one for the music cues made so famous in the first movie soundtrack (now newly released by Varese Sarabande, and hopefully available here soon!), but this soundtrack holds its own appeal, with rearranged versions of the main title with the jungle drums and blaring brass passages. The chase music parts are also breathtaking as always, and plenty of low-key, "sneaking around" music cues too. This CD will satisfy your thirst for the exciting theme music, but too often, I found myself skipping ahead through the slower stuff to find the rearrangements of the familiar cues we all know and love. Now that it's out, save your money for the original. This is only an appetizer! February 26, 2004

As with the first score, Alan Silvestri does a magnificent job creating real suspense with a Bernard Herrmann-like sound. Silvestri provides a mixture of instruments just like Herrmann did for many of his great film scores! While this score isn't as good as Silvestri's score for Predator, it does have the same powerful sound and intensity. I highly recommend this to any soundtrack buff!! June 8, 2002

rating: 4 QuoteShould be longer.Quote
Not a very thorough soundtrack CD but it does contain the best and most exciting cues from the movie. "Tunnel Chase" is the best recital of the main Predator theme and "Dem Bones" is powerful and sweeping. The track "Rest in Pieces" is the only return of the sad, sombre theme from the original.

The 2 Predator movies are of Silvestri's best work and this CD should be popular with you if you are a fan. Let us hope that Varese Sarabande release a more wholesome version in the future and possibly the score for the first movie, which is strangely unavailable.

I've had this now for 7 years and I still love it. I never gets boring and is always moving. 4 very well deserved stars. November 19, 2001
