    Doctor Who - Series 4: The Specials - Murray Gold
    From Disc 1 really only "Planet Of The Dead" is really good, the rest is pretty much forgettable. Disc 2 "The End Of Time" is excellent overall, although I can't understand all the love for the Vale Decem piece. Very ho-hum requiem-esque.
    Doctor Who: Series 5 - Murray Gold
    Not listened to it yet.
    Force 10 From Navarone - Ron Goodwin
    Not a classic, but a solid action/war score from the master, with an excellent march as its main theme.
    The War Wagon - Dimitri Tiomkin
    Not listened to it yet, but the clips sounded marvelous!
    A Bridge Too Far - John Addison
    Not listened to it yet, but the sound clips on Kritzerland seemed really good!.
    Les Deux Mondes - Richard Harvey
    Excellent and outré epic adventure score from tunesmith Harvey. Vey enjoyable romp in the vein of Bernstein's Heavy Metal.
    The Unforgiven/The Way West - Dimitri Tiomkin/Bronislau Kaper
    Bought this one primarily for Tiomkin's The Unforgiven...which is a bit messy and all over the place. Disappointing. sad
    Greystoke - John Scott
    Hm. Well crafted, but slow moving and not very catchy. A little disappointed. The overture is bloody ACE, though!

    Still in transit:
    Conan The Barbarian (rerecording) - Basil Poledouris
    'nuff said.
    Red Sonja (re-issue) - Ennio Morricone
    I know the score very well. Looking forward to listen to the remastering job.

  1. Just ordered:

    - King Kong - James Newton Howard: finally getting it, because I love the film and its score never clicked until the last time I saw it.
    - Speed 2: Cruise Control - Mark Mancina: same here, only not because I love the film.
    - Thirteen Days - Trevor Jones: figured I should have this, because I'm a fan of the man.
    - Headhunter / Headhunter Redemption - Richard Jacques: getting this for the first Headhunter score.
    - Conan the Barbarian 2CD - Basil Poledouris: do I really have to say why?

    13 Days is standard Jones' gem, you'll love it. Same goes for KING KONG, one of hist best scores. How's headhunter / hh:rd, any good? As for conan, no comment, a must-have! And speed 2, well a waste of money, thankfully not mine wink beer
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
  2. 13 Days is an underrated gem, too. My favourite Trevor Jones score. Nice to know that it's still in print!

    The ...ummm...*cough* expanded version is very good.

    My favourite still remains his sublime fantasy score for The Dark Crystal.

    Headhunter is really good, much better than James Bond: Bloodstone. There's a very cool overall sound (70 % orchestrated + 30 % synths, but they don't grate) and the themes are great. Redemption is not orchestrated and not as good as a result.

    Speed 2, no seriously I love 90s Mancina, and I didn't think I would like this, since it didn't set me alight in the film, but then Thomas let me hear his copy... and I enjoyed it tremendously. So no money wasted dude !!! cheesy

    My first cd purchase in a loooong time-

    Masamichi Amano - Super Atragon
    I saw Atham posting about this on MT and liked the youtube samples. I found a cd copy for very cheap. Haven't opened the cd yet.

    I once placed Spartacus in my ScreenArchives shopping basket, and simply left it there. Now ScreenArchives sent me a coupon for 10% discount on my order just so I can clean out my shopping basket. Hmm... tempting, tempting crazy

    (p.s. want a 10% discount on an order and don't need the score right away? Put it in your basket! Ultimately they'll want you to clean it!).

    Same here. I had Greystoke in my shopping cart for a long time and they sent the 10% discount code. But I'm still not buying. Besides it's cheaper to purchase from MovieMusic. SAE shipping is a bit on the high side.

    Well.
    1. You're just a Johnny-come-lately to the vinyl craze, and therefore unworthy of respect
    2. You try and impress us old timers with Inception? I would have been expecting some Victor Young!
    3. the camera is pointing the wrong way.
