    Jean Norman, who later provided wordless vocals over the original Star Trek TV theme for the first season. Her vocals were edited out of succeeding seasons.

    I think it is the other way around. Her vocals are present on the SECOND and THIRD season, but not on the FIRST.

    According to Wikipedia:

    Norman delivered the non-lexical vocables over Alexander Courage's opening theme song for the first season of Star Trek. The music was remixed without Norman’s voice for the show’s second and third season so the producers could avoid paying her royalties.

    That's exactly why people, including yourself, believe that it was only the first season that has her voice. According to others, that is not true.

    After reading your post the first time, I went to YouTube to listen to the difference. It turns out that the voice is much more apparent on the second and third seasons than it is on the first, which caused me to research further and find information opposite to what you originally posted.

    Of course, how YouTube videos are titled isn't concrete proof, either, but it is sure interesting how different versions of "the truth" can . . . . differ.

    The SACD and DVD-Audio of that is damn good!!

    I wonder how each of the three above compares to the 2006 MFSL version. That's what I've been listening to for almost 20 years. I like the album, but not enough to buy multiple versions. My vinyl of it is in poor shape unfortunately.

    I can report out that the Gastwirt CD sounds better than the 2015 Wilson CD and just
    as good as the US vinyl i had. I moved the vinyl along even though it was in great shape.

    Clear Light?

    It looks like an old Ozzy Osbourne went back in time to the late 60s and formed a band with Ritchie Blackmore, Bob Seger, Gene Simmons, Danny Bonaduce, and Steve Winwood. :p

    Spun a Bill Watrous/Manhattan Wildlife Refuge LP remembering my old friend Norm (Normality at CP). Norm played the slide trombone, passed away in Aug 2008. Some have called the album art lame, but the music isn't lame at all.

    I finally went and read the discussion at Hoffman forums. It seems that Gastwirt is preferred by most, but the MFSL is a close 2nd choice. I'll probably stick with what I have.

    Soulsavers / The Light the Dead See.

    This is a collaboration with Dave Gahan, the frontman of Depeche Mode as guest vocalist. Gahan can speak from experience. Local paramedics nicknamed him "The Cat" from surviving four brushes with death, one where he flat lined for a couple minutes.
