  1. The third is definitely the best.
  2. I saw the new film last night and it had some pretty big statements of the gorgeous love theme from the third film. Does anyone with the new album know if these are on there?

    NP: Scott of the Antarctic (Re-recording) - Ralph Vaughan Williams

    The soundtrack release of the year! Every last note from this bonafide classic faithfully re-recorded by the brilliant Royal Scottish National Orchestra under the baton of Martin Yates! Nothing I can say will do this score and album justice! Just go and get it NOW!

  4. It's a brilliant cd, I got it earlier in the week and it's just a terrific recording all round. I've had the Chandos recording for years but it was the same length as the Symphony and didn't add much. This is pretty much twice the length and is, frankly, a revelation. It'll be getting a lot of plays from me!

    It's there. I haven't listened to the score "properly" yet, but the love theme is there.

    Imagine if you will the most generic thing you've ever come across in your life. Well, I win, because whatever you thought of isn't as generic as this.

    The various movie clips made it sound like pretty much anyone in the RC school could have written it. Just very bland and lacking a sound of its own.

    It's ever so slightly more brief than my own, rather less romantically named SciFi list, but still: a most worthwhile listen!

    Cleopatra - Alex North

    Surely the most cerebral score written for one of these epics. I prefer my epics to sound more epic, but it's an exquisitely-drawn piece of work.

    Started listening to that CD and I had to stop it half-way through because the music lost me. Was expecting something a bit more... uhm... adventurous and thematic. I'll give it another chance when I'm more in the mood but nearly 80 minutes of this will seriously test my patience.

  12. Not sure, maybe I was expecting something more memorable from the get go after all the praise I've heard. I'm sure it needs to be heard multiple times. Never read about the story, never saw the film, never heard one note of this music, so I didn't know what I was in for.

    NP: Terminator 2 - Judgement Day (1992) - Brad Fiedel

    The recently released remaster of the original soundtrack album. It sounds great but I cannot compare it to the Varese release because I never owned it. This seems to be a somewhat easier listening experience than the score of the original film. This re-release closes a gap in my collection and it nicely complements the remastered Terminator album by Milan.

    Volker


    I own the original release and it sounds fantastic, so I have no need for the remaster. Then again, it could be an improvement on something that already sounds great to my ears.

    Anyway, this score is totally awesome, wish someday we could have everything that appears in the film, but there seems to be a problem with the original masters (they're lost as I've read) so we may never get that.

    Under the Volcano Alex North

    A miniature masterpiece. I've always loved this - so much going on, so many depths.
  14. NP: Superman - John Williams
    As re-recorded by The Royal Scottish National Orchestra and John Debney.

    The blue box FSM edition of the original recording is magnificent but I fell in love with this recording years ago upon first listen.

  15. The Golden Child - Michel Colombier, John Barry, VA

    First the Colombier score which may be appropriate for the silly film. It's not very good music heard away from the film. It could hardly be called music.
    The Barry score is too good for the film and as an album it's a damn fine film score, even if all of it was rejected. I particularly love the love theme, some suspense cues and the 10 minute finale.
    The third disc is a bunch of alternates and songs from the film. It's hit and miss, but I do like the 80s glam-rock vibe of 'Body Talk' by a band called Ratt. Yes... Ratt !!! Never heard of them either. confused

    Performed by the RSNO conducted by the man himself.

    What a brilliant compilation ! cool

  17. NP: A View to a Kill (1985) - John Barry, Duran Duran

    Remembering Roger Moore, who will always be my Bond ... and John Barry.

    I don't care for the Barry score, but I absolutely ADORE the Colombier!
    I am extremely serious.

    I know what you meant wink

    Really underrated Bond score and is, barring a few sublime cues from Moonraker, my favourite Roger Moore starred Bond score.

  18. I like A View to a Kill, but I think The Living Daylights is my Roger Moore Bond score. That said, I haven't properly heard Moonraker and Man with the Golden Gun, though I never read a very positive opinion of the latter.

    The Retrograde Records release from 2011 was long overdue and for me it was an instant buy. Ever since I first saw the film this among many others from the time has cemented my love for film music.
    One of his most creative efforts for sure. What else can be said than this excellent fun all the way. Wouldn't change a thing in how Jerry handled the horror and comedy aspects of this wonderfully zany film, and that includes all his wacky sound effects. biggrin

    At least the change in actors happened so late that The Living Daylights still had the Moore trademark goofiness (*ski chase ends, flash passports*)
