GUN - Original Score

[Rimo]

Does anyone know where this album comes from? While it does look legitimate, I'm still not convinced it is and I wonder if it might not be a game rip.

Also, I have the same question about this album as well: 007 From Russia With Love - Original Score

[Myrkul]

TO be honest, i have myself always wondered if they are existing or not..
Here are the sources for both albums:

gun source 1

007 source 1
007 source 2

Maybe they were released only for reviewers (like some "albums?" from music 4 games), i don't know.

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I just found this album on ebay and it certainly looks legit.

The CD has the "holographic" stamp of the album name on the inner ring. That I know of, this can only be done on a actual press.

I'm putting together several CDs for which I need to upload scans and this is one of them.

I've seen bootleg CDs that have that. That's not enough to determine an item's "legitimacy", I'm afraid.

Well, in theory, just about the only way to "determine" a CD's legitimacy is to have the actual composer/artist hand it to you personally, since apparently any other identifying marks can be duplicated by a bootlegger and buying it from a "reputable" store means little also, because a buddy of mine that's a Beattles freak purchased not 1, but 2 bootleg vinyls from Tower Records and my brother bought a Led Zeppelin bootleg CD from Wherehouse Records. Both stores were a little red-faced when this was brought to their attention. Would've been interesting to find out how these items slipped into inventory.

Someone (thanks teva) uploaded a complete set of scan for this album.

Matter is.. I see the date 2014 all around the scans, so this must be a new print, the front cover is also quite different. It's still promotional.

It would be cool if Lich King of an another owner of the 2005 disc can confirm it's different (and provide scans too maybe).

Indeed, I got this 2014 new print from Mark Banning and still for promotional use...

Actually, my disc is the same as teva's.
