There's also an issue with some of the original soundtracks, namely that the channels are reversed. This is what Ford A. Thaxton said on the matter:

"According to several sources when VARESE first released the John Williams score to "The Cowboys" they used a incorrectly mixed master to press the disc, later when this was discovered they went back and corrected the
problem and repressed from the correct master.

However I'm told the only way to tell the difference is to look at the information on the inside matrix of the CD, if it reads VSD5540RE
you have the correced disc, if it reads VSD5540 you have the original version."
