The Great Fantasy Adventure Album (Erich Kunzel & Cincinnati Pops)
Brilliant ! I'm glad I found this gem of a compilation (Erik
).
Feel good post of the day! A positive reaction to one of my recommendations always makes me feel great! I'm so glad you enjoyed what I consider to be one of the finest compilation albums and re-recordings of all time!

Haha, it's always nice to follow recommendations of people who know what they're talking about. I thorougly enjoyed the other Kunzels in equal measure: Star Tracks II and Fantastic Journey, and I just ordered The Big Picture on eBay. In a time of average or downright dreadful scores, these albums are a godsend for me.
It reminds me what it was like 10-30 years ago

NP: "End Credit Score Suite" from Tinkerbell - Joel McNeely
Yet another criminally underrated composer. Look what kind of release this very enjoyable score got...
Agreed! What a wonderful suite... so full of life with rich lyrical themes that likes of we rarely hear these days! I will say this again... even though McNeely is wasting his talent on these silly direct to video films at least he is still working and at least we can still enjoy a snippet of his brilliant work. Hopefully one day some young director wakes the fuck up, recognizes McNeely extraordinary talent and give him a blockbuster to score!
BTW - NP: "Marshall Flies The Skybolt from Wild America - Joel McNeely
Even though this fantastic piece is in parts influenced by James Horner's "The Launch" from Apollo 13, McNeely crafts a wonderful, inspiring main theme and injects his own style or voice into the cue creating one of his grandest pieces ever!

The Red Violin John Corigliano
Can't wait for his new score. An artist of rare beauty as one of our Greek friends might say.
Oh baby! Yeah! Here's hoping that someone like Intrada will release his equally brilliant Revolution score in the near future! Corigliano should be scoring MORE films! What a talent!

He strikes me as a "serious" composer who occassionally dabbles in film music.
Revolution would be a fantastic release.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

NP:Knowing (Beltrami)
A lot of Beltramierisms, but I enjoy it more than other of his scores.
This scores include some new ideas in Beltrami's usual list of tricks, but what I specially enjoy are Goldenthal moments in the last tracks.
"new York" is really, really Impressive!

Frederic Talgorn - Les Enfants de Timpelbach
Good score but a tad too long. I still prefer Les Aiguilles Rouges.

First played: Face/Off (John Powell)
This is basically one of the only Powells I can enjoy. Call me old-fashioned but I'm not into Powell's style at all. Except for his animated co-compositions. And this early one is so etched into Hans Zimmer's style of composing I can't help but enjoy it, it also contains one of my favourite ending themes. I just love how the (brilliant) film ends on that very positive note.
Now playing: The Shadow expanded (Jerry Goldsmith)
I need me some Goldsmith, and this is sheer fun and memorable themes aplenty. Come to think of it, maybe this man right here would have been the perfect choice for Iron Man, I just thought about this after all the Iron Man / Djawadi talk on the forum and the awful score. The Shadow is a light, campy yet exciting superhero romp, just like Iron Man. I'm fairly certain Goldsmith would've accepted this job if the good man was still alive. But we'll never know for sure."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

I was Playing: Ten Commandaments (Bernstein)
The new recording is superb, or it just me?
NP:Lair (Debney)
In my three all time favourite scores. Pure feeling of Ancient magic!
I simply love it, for pure entertaining and because of personal reasons.
"overture" , "diviner's battle", "darkness theme", "elegy" "diviner's theme" or "civilitathion theme"

Interesting. Face Off is one of the few Powells I don't enjoy, simply because it sounds so MV-ish and synthy. -

Jerry Goldsmith, R.I.P.
I LOVE this score -- can't sa yti enough. I listen to the compelte DVD isolated score and I still yern for more -- it's just too short. The day this get's released on CD as a whole, will be a day that didn't come soon enough.The views and opinions of Ford A.

WP: Shawshank Redemption - Thomas Newman
It's Sunday. It's spring. But horrible weather today... the sky is grey, wind blowing, annoying rain damps my bad hair! Aw! So I decided to close the curtains, turn off the light, lay back on the bed, and listen to a great score! (I fell asleep for a while but it's not because of the music)
The last two tracks, from So Was Red to End Title, never failed to move me...

NP: Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix - Nicholas Hooper
If this had been for some TV show, I'd have given it 4 stars out of 5. But it just doesn't stand up to the other scores in this series. While some tracks like Professor Umbridge, Dumbledore's Army, Hall Of Prophecy and Flight Of The Order Of The Phoenix are certainly good, the others are quite there like fillers. I hope JW is back for the final film(s).
