As if you didn't already know...GHOSTBUSTERS II soundtrack re-issue coming Sept 9

Boy, talk about a botched offering.

On Our Own - great song.
Flesh N' Blood - who can argue with a bit of Boingo?
Supernatural, The Promised Land et al - not in the movie, but not a lot of songs were...you gotta give people their money's worth right?  Or at least let people think they're getting their money's worth...
MIA: the breezy piano music largely heard during scenes including Sigourney Weaver as Dana Barrett.  Not to mention everything else Randy Edelmen composed for the movie.  Also, while Howard Huntsbury's remake of Jackie Gleason's "Higher and Higher" IS included, it's not the same as it was in the movie b/c they secluded the tape-cut(?) intro(?) thingy that precedes the "main" cut of the song (watch GHOSTBUSTERS II again if you're confused - you hear that bout of sound coming out of your speakers PRIOR to the Statue Of Liberty's torch lighting?  THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE CD!!!).

The GB2 OST is already avail. digitally, as of sometime earlier this year I guess...the digital version is the same botched offering as has always been available.
Technically, I can't say if the GB2 OST that's set to be re-released on vinyl and CD on Sept 9th is the same as the digital version, but given the lack of thought put into the soundtrack the first time around, and the lack of thought put into a million other things the music industry and every other industry has had a hand in, it's hard to find it worthwhile to hold my breath in anticipation...I might buy it anyway...I'm not pre-ordering it unless it becomes apparent that it's got a different cover than the original CD and cassette copies I've already owned in years passed -- the soundtrack isn't horrible, it's just botched, which is *NOT GOOD* (IMO?).
