Generations Expanded Soundtrack! - Page 2

It's here!

The original Generations soundtrack was the first CD I ever purchased - I was 11 and it went perfectly with the new CD player my parents gave me for Chanukah that year. So upgrading that CD with this one has a bit of sentimental meaning for me.

Sound quality is light-years better than the original album and the new music is a nice treat, especially the action material.

Finally got around to ordering mine just now. Very much looking forward to listening to it!

I ordered mine on Monday, and got the shipping email yesterday. This is my first order direct from the GNP Cresendo site, so I have no idea how much longer my wait for it will be. The shipping email didn't say, unlike Amazon.

But, at least I know it's on it's way. Between this, and next months' 15 disk TOS soundtrack, I'm looking forward to many hours of Star Trek music.

How weird. I placed my order, and within 30 minutes got an email saying the CD had shipped.

I know that it can vary in terms of time reply with these things, but I also live in California (I know for a fact that I live less than ten minutes from La-La Land, for example) so its likely I'm not too far from where GNP is based also.

Hopefully though we will both be surprised with the soonish delivery of our coveted discs!

It might be a while till I get mine, because of what the Frankenstorm did here.

Yep, hopefully.

I'm also in California (Sacramento), so I imagine it'll take probably a day or two longer to get to me. Of course, like I said, this is my first order direct from the folks at Crescendo (I usually deal with Amazon), so I don't know exactly what their usual procedure is just yet.

Glad to know you weren't hurt. Hope everything else is okay.

We're doing okay. We were staying with my in-laws until we got power back last night. We just have to clean out the fridge and freezer now.

I wonder when we'll get expanded soundtracks of Insurrection and Nemesis (I believe the one of Star Trek XI came out around the time the movie did).

I think there's a strong possibility they'll be released during the course of 2013.

I thought CBS was putting a hold on all non-Abrams related merchandise during 2013, which would preclude any soundtracks unrelated to the new movie from being released in that period?

No. The expanded Star Trek XI soundtrack came out over a year later, in 2010. I remember because it was announced the night of the Memorial Day barbecue my roommate and I host every year, and he had his laptop out waiting for the announcement to be made.

As for Insurrection and Nemesis, who knows? It'd make sense with all the other releases. I hope they'll be able to get to them as I love both albums (is there anything better than Jerry?) ... but for now I'm happy listening to my new Generations CD (which came in the mail on Wednesday last week.)

Mine arrived today, I have to admit the music where they evacuate brings a tear to my eye. The scene has always had that effect on me.

Just as I was returning from a particularly gruelling training circuit on my bicycle earlier this afternoon, the postlady literally pulled up in her van and proceeded to thrust the GNP envelope into my eager hands! I am now ready to put my feet up and give the silver disc a whirl.

Superb service from GNP - getting the disc over to the UK so quickly.
