- Comment I skipped back to "Departing Sun" after Christodoulides' comment. Okay that *is* a melody. Clearly defined melody, something with the markings of a theme, no doubt. For in my book, for something to qualify as a theme it has to be a [i]recurring[/i] melody. It has to pop up two or ...

- Comment Oh, I never skip tracks. Never, ever. See, now the "main" theme just showed up again in "Charlie Hangs Around". But still nothing else. Where's that guide? I think I need it.

- Comment Yes, that's the one argument I also naturally thought of. It helps to bring a resurrection of the original out-of-print tracks. But only when that's the case. Not when it's common like [b]Batman[/b] or [b]Titanic[/b]. But what La-La-Land did for [b]Masters of the Universe[/b]: BOTH the expanded ...

And the only truly stand-out theme is of course the ...

- Comment I don't know about you all, but I'm not interested in the original film tracks of [b]Brainstorm[/b]. I saw the film, and while it was good, the performance of the music pales compared to what we have on CD (especially "Lilian's Heart Attack"). I'm happy with what we have.

- Comment My #1 John Scott selection is [b]King Kong Lives[/b]. Other superb selections not mentioned yet are: [b]Red King White Knight[/b], [b]Time of the Wolf[/b] and all his [b]Cousteau[/b] music. John Scott's ability to write long-lined melodic themes rivals John Barry and Ennio Morricone if you ask ...

- Comment That's the idea. Glad to get rid of those bootlegs now that legitimate editions (and most of the time BETTER!) have been released. You'd think I'd be stuck with those bootlegs now, but you'd be surprised. Plus, many of these bootlegs are actually pressed CDs. Those are easier to sell than CDR ...

- Comment When I look at my post-2000 Morricone set, there's barely one score for each year. I think I don't have any for 2004 at all! Mind you for some other older composers, that's normal: John Williams has slowed down a lot and John Barry has completely retired. But Ennio the man is still cranking them ...

I hold no memories of the score from those ...
