Tangerine Dream

For those of you who have seen the film Near Dark, the first piece of music on the film is NOT on the soundtrack.
Recently, two pieces of music by TD have reminded me of this missing track.
First off was 'The Greek Mirror' but closer to it was 'Southpole Crossing' from the 'TD PLAYS TD' album.
Do you think td used the original track & 'tangent-ized' it to one of the above mentioned tracks or its still in the td vaults somewhere?

By the way, Near Dark is one of my favorite TD soundtracks. Second only to Sorcerer.

Must check that out, I've got the DVD here somewhere. Doesn't it have an isolated soundtrack or something? May be I ought to rip that to CDR.

Will have to check that out. I do know that the first track on the album is not in the film as far as I can remember, i.e. Caleb's Blues??

Whoever made the final cut must have listened to it first.

Isolated soundtrack? Damn! I bought the DVD a couple of years back as an impulse purchase and never got around to even removing the cellophane. *Digs around in DVD cupboard*

(Edit) Found it - nope, no isolated soundtrack, at least not on the vanilla release.

Are you guys getting confused with legend that as an isolated soundtrack

i have the anchor bay cut of near dark and there is no isolated soundtrack
on that

You're probably right about that.... can't find the DVD to confirm or deny.

If it's the Legend soundtrack there was loads left off the film as can be heard on bootlegs - not that I condone them in the slightest !

This opening track can be found on the fan compilation Cinema Lost Cinema Found.
