Star Trek: The Motion Picture (expanded soundtrack) is the extended soundtrack to Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Produced by La-La Land Records, and limited to 10,000 copies, the three-disc release contains the extended score to the film, along with the original 1979 soundtrack release, alternate takes, isolated extracts, and other extras - including the "rejected" cues from composer Goldsmith. The score was remastered from the first-generation analogue recordings, part of the process involving a technique known as tape baking.
The release includes a forty-page booklet featuring commentary from Mike Matessino and Jeff Bond and track-by-track breakdowns.
