You have forgotten only one :
BCL 6002 Flesh + Blood Basil Poledouris

Thanks, walensky, for this one. I really did not know about it - I don't understand why the last two (Jagged Edge and Flesh+Blood) have such different number.

By the way, does anyone know why did Varese stop their club editions then ? Was it so unsuccessful ? That is certainly hard to believe !
