    It's a darn fine score too, even people who aren't too taken with Rosenman seem to like this one.

    Just to clarify: it's a complete score release of Laurence Rosenthal's score to the 1981 film and not Djawadi's score for the recent remake. I would have thought.

    Yeah, but what's worrying is that I have tracks from Djawadi's score on my favourites list but none from Rosenthal's. Go figure that one out!

    Though some might wants what was recorded for Armstrong's rejected score.

    There is about 10 - 15 minutes of worth in Djawadi's score, but not much more.

  8. So, another Intrada has been solved (titles announced later today, in about eight or so hours from now):

    So the two titles of the Golden Age CD are clear now:
    Lyn Murray's ON THE THRESHOLD OF SPACE (1956) coupled with Paul Sawtell's THE HUNTERS (1958).

    The Rosenthal score was definitely BETTER than Djawadi's work, but didn't really impress me as well, I'm afriad.

    I've never really found out what happened but John Barry was the original composer for Clash of The Titans, even the early posters had his name on them.

    You're right, this one does feature Barry as the composer!
    http://www.impawards.com/1981/clash_of_ … _ver2.html

    This has me interested as well about what happened... After a quick Google, I saw this interview with Barry in which he briefly mentions the project. Not a very spectacular story...:

    Ford A. Thaxton: Do you have any recollections of CLASH OF THE TITANS at all? You’re actually named on some of the early posters.
    John Barry: I can’t remember for sure. I don’t think I got too involved. I think I may have done some demos on that and they didn’t like the way I was going with it and that was probably it.

    source: http://www.runmovies.eu/index.php?optio … ;Itemid=57
  10. I got a good quote about Barry/Titans on my site: rejectedfilmscores.150m.com/list.html




    Coming next week from Kritzerland Records:

    "Casino Royale" and "Genghis Khan".


    He also hints at two Paramount titles which he's giddy about, and says to expect them the first few months of 2011 (pending approval).



    Yes ... yes ... keep opening, Paramount vault doors ... yes.....

    If they'll thoroughly remaster and clean up Casino Royale, I might be tempted.
    It's a funktastic score, but the existing recording is absolute pants.

  11. Casino Royale would be a definite no-no for me. I was listening to clips the other day when Tim(?) mentioned it the other day and thought "nooooooo!".

    Well, according to Kritzerland they have massively remastered Casino Royale's original (damaged) tape sound AND done a remastered LP-to-CD version (so...erm...basically you're getting the same score. Twice).
    Anyway, that's enough info for me to take the leap and order it (as I'm really unhappy with my current CD version).

    Oh, incidentally, for anyone still interested: at a mere 1000 copies, they are already almost sold out, even though SAEstill offers pre-order copies.

    Keeping in mind the very impressive cleaning job on Robocop I let myself be tempted and ordered the remastered Flesh + Blood as well. But it's a bit of a gamble. I'd only "double up" for a very few select composers ( love Basil is one of them. Obviously. love ), but if I can't hear any difference with my original Prometheus CD, this practice stops immediately. I'm not made out of money, and I'll be happy to settle with "good enough".

  13. LLLR today:


    Just wanted to give y'all a brief update on our January 4 titles:

    There will be NO JAN 4 titles.

    This re-issue (not expanded) has a 16 page booklet designed by Jim Titus. Mike Matessino went back and took out the digital imperfections (very minor) that were inherent in the original release.

    The 1st 100 copies will be autographed by Cliff Martinez.

    THE RAT PATROL - music by Dominic Frontiere
    Limited edition of 1200 units

    The 1st 100 copies will be autographed by Dominic Frontiere.

    Young Riders - music by John Debney
    Limited edition of 1200 units

    This Emmy Award winning series features some of John Debney's most captivating work for the small screen. Featured on this volume of music are the episodes: THE KID (aka The Pilot), THE GUNFIGHTER, and the Emmy Award winning episode for best score, KANSAS.

    The 1st 100 copies will be autographed by John Debney.

    Track titles, cover images, and more information on all 3 releases to follow.

    These will be our ONLY releases for January.

    On Jan 3 we will begin dealing with emails, lost orders, damaged orders, thank you's, wholesale orders, website orders. . . genreally playing catch up.

    Until then. . .

    Have a Happy and safe New Year!

    See you back here on Jan 18 at 1 pm!

    I would seriously hope that one of the Goldsmith's will be THE LIST OF ADRIAN MESSENGER, I shall have to wait and see?

    As for a John Barry, I'll take whatever is offered, though I would hope it's HOWARD THE DUCK, GOODBYE LOVER or THE GOLDEN CHILD.

    if it's THE BLACK HOLE someone will have to use some serious ressussitation equipment

    I've never been a fan of that score ( heard in the film and the little that is on the Goldsmith box ), anyway, I've heard that the electronic elements are lost forever......or so it's been said?
