It was an eight o’clock PM recording session. Those five guys had worked all day. We were at Capitol recording studios, Bill Conti was the conductor. There were four trumpets, some trombones, it was just a brass section recording session. The strings had already been recorded, so we heard the strings through the cans.}}</ref>

The version of "Eye of the Tiger" that appears in the film is actually a demonstration recording; the "finished" version is what appears on the soundtrack. Also missing from the soundtrack is the instrumental version of the song played when Rocky is training in Apollo's old gym.

A re-release of ''Rocky III: Original Motion Picture Score'' CD was released on July 23, 1996
