   Since this question has generated so much interest, I thought I
would provide a few more facts than in my previous posting.
   I have in front of me MY copy of the lp "Blade Runner". The cover
states "Orchestral Adaptation of Music Composed for the Motion Picture
by Vangelis. Performed by The New American Orchestra, Jack Elliot,
Musical Director." It's available from Warner Brothers, and far from
being `schlocky', as some netter put it, it is in some ways even more
haunting and beautiful than the original soundtrack. I love it.
