# = Used in the theatrical version.
$ = Used in the expanded television version (not the Director's Cut).
@ = Unused

A = CD Release (1989)
B = The Best Of Bill Haley and His Comets: 20th Century Masters
F1/F2/F8 = Film Score Monthly Superman Box (8 Discs)
L1/L2/L3 = La La Land 40th Anniversary Release (3 Discs)
S2 = La-La Land Superman II-III Release (Disc 2)
P = The Millennium Collection: The Best of the Platters
R1/R2 = Rhino 2 CD Release (2000)
S = LP Release
ST = Very Best of the Supertramp

Notes: In the directors cut, aside from editing the complete cues down and dialing out some sections, the only difference is the removal of the source music by John Williams and the addition of two tracked cues:

1. L1T2 - The Planet Krypton and The Dome Opens (3:58-4:06) is heard in the middle of L1T3 when "a Kryptonian security guard [is] dispatched by the council to investigate Jor-El's activitites" it is taken from when General Zod tells Jor-El "You alone will be held responsible by me."

2. L1T3 - Destruction of Krypton (Extended Version) (3:26-5:38) is heard after L1T15 when Superman receives counsel from Jor-El that vanity is what destroyed Krypton.

The cues from disc 2 of the Superman II-III release the are the original, unedited cues.  Several of the matching cues on the FSM release repeated part of the music at the end to provide a more natural fade-out.

Hi, just want to let you know that Bill Haley's Rock Around The Clock was only used in the 1978 Theatrical Release. All subsequent versions feature an alternate source music cue which is unknown to me.
