    Indeed - with track 2 close behind (in more ways than one). It's fair to say that those two tracks are the only ones you need.

    NP: TWISTER (Mark Mancina)

    Cool, bustling score with a very memorable main theme. Mancina was THE MAN back in those days.

    So far today:
    Journey to the Centre of the Earth - Andrew Lockington

    A general collection of bigger composers style (Arnold, Horner, Williams) arranged into an entertaining package.

    The Visitor - Jan A.P Kaczmarek

    Very subtle in emotion with a film that only needed a small touch of music.

    The Good Son - Elmer Bernstein

    One of Bernstein's best themes, very sweet and dramatic.

    Fools of Fortune - Hans Zimmer

    The most romantic material Hans has ever written.

    Pretty good day of listening if I do say so.

    And Shirley Walker, THE WOMAN.

    Conan The Barbarian - Basil Poledouris

    It's a great score no doubt about that.

    To be completely honest, I'm happy with the Varese release (68 minutes) as a listening experience. The re-recording I'm sure is well done and sounds wonderful, but I'm just wary of having scores that are over 80 minutes/albums of 2CD long in my collection. This is because I don't know how much time in the future I would have for listening to scores (especially ones 100 minutes in length, since I like to scores in a linear fashion).

    Good point, or does a total name change from Stott to Morley not count? wink

    NP: The Green Lantern (James Newton Howard)

    why do I hear such an amazing James Newton Howard in the track "We're Going to Fly Now" and I don't hear nothing of that same quality in the rest? For me this track and "Welcome to OA" are the only tracks that listen like the good old orchestral JNH, the rest is just his SALT phase and weaker

    Plus, the Goldsmith theme isn't working either

    Another wasted opportunity


    I like the main theme and Hal Battles Parallax too. But yeh, overall it's quite disappointing.

    NP: VARESE SARABANDE: 30TH ANNIV. COLLECTION (various)

    I just love this 4CD set, as it's chockful of titles I don't own (since I phased out of heavy soundtrack purchasing several years ago). Great programming too, with each disc having its own musical "theme" of sorts, and great segues between tracks. I congratulated Robert Townson on this set personally in Ghent last year.

    NP: FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR (Alan Silvestri)

    The film is a nostalgic favourite of mine, but this is cool music in its own right. This is the kind of Silvestri I still like to listen to. Wonderful synth textures and grooves.
    I am extremely serious.

    Thor - Patrick Doyle

    A bit bland to put it mildly coming for a person who loves vanilla ice cream.

    It's a score that I wouldn't enjoy a ton on its own, but it was very smart in the film. It really chronicled the main character's change. All the classical sounding piano stuff at the beginning was completely replaced by the drums at the end, fitting his expanding view of the world really well, I thought.

    Agreed. It's an excellent set. There are a lot of highlights from scores that I do not have there, and I have purchased a handfull of the scores represented therein simply because I liked what I head on this set so much. And it's a lot of music for the money.

    I just played THE SPITFIRE GRILL - James Horner

    This scores sets a really nice mood... I love that last track.

    Nothing wrong with Vanilla ice cream, my favourite as long as it's piled on top of fresh strawberries, water melon and chopped banana. As for THOR it was the biggest disappointment I'd heard in some time.

    Eh. I much prefer his, IMHO, superior Speed Racer score over this one.

    I assume "Michael's Gift to Karen" is ripped off from something else, but who cares, it's stunning.

    It is! BRAINSTORM was the 2nd Horner score I ever bought ( Trek II was 1st ) and was the very 1st CD I ever bought ( came in one of those long box thingies...anyone remember those? )

  21. "Long box thingies?" Seems like I answered your question - with a question.

    CD was packed in a long oblong box, very fetching it looked too but rather pointless, I had a few like this.

    The only long box CD I owned was Rozsa's Spellbound. I bought in a cutout bin! I tossed the box and kept the jewel case. The box WAS pointless!

  25. The only thing that I can relate to is the 3 releases I have that comes in the dimensions of a "longbox" but is more of a book: releases of The Wizard of Oz, Gone With The Wind and Ben-Hur.
