Have not heard them all. But so far best I've heard:William Ross' score for T-Rex: Back to Cretaceous.
Nice and melodic. Grand and epic. Symphonic writing at its best.

All the usual places I would assume (SAE, Intrada, STAR, Footlight, SuperCollector, etc).I got mine from ScreenArchives.

As far as I now, T-Rex is not available anymore. We've only got a handful of copies left.

"Across the Sea of Time" is wonderful;so are the two scores Bill Conti did for IMAX films, "Yellowstone" and "Grand Canyon."
and a fellow named Sam Cardon has also done very nice work including "Mysteries of Egypt" and the new "Lewis and Clark" IMAX film.

My favorite IMAX score is Amazon by Alan Williams. Amazingly beautiful stuff!There is also Wings of Courage by Gabriel Yared. Its not my favorite, but its interesting to hear Yared do something bombastic for a change.

Agreed on Siegfried and Roy. A big, spectacular orchestral score for something that probably isn't worthy of such a score.
