Akira Yamaoka - Theme of Laura (extended full guitar solo mix)

  • Put together, to make the guitar solo complete. There's no original "extended version", but some unused material, and trailers, which have that guitar part - sort of.
    I know the quality from 3:34 is extremely shitty, but there was nothing more I could do: that part is from a trailer, which had awful sounds, and there's no other clean version of it. I don't own a studio to make it better, but I did my best. I simply wanted to make this song as long as it was meant to be.

    Kind of reminds me of one extended version that was paired with a video of the game made years back (like not long after SH2 first came out). And while it would be cool to see the talking parts (and those monster noises and the scream) cleared out, it's not a bad fit for this. This is such a great song, and it stinks Akira never officially released the extended version, that added solo is just outstanding.
