  1. Something that might interest a few:

    "On Sat., Oct. 24th, 2009, a concert is taking place that will feature the music of Stu Phillips. Although a good deal of the performance will feature Battlestar Galactica music, there will be a performance of the Knight Rider theme with a full symphony orchestra. (The Golden State Pops Orchestra)

    The concert will take place at the Warner Grand Theater in San Pedro, CA. At 7:30 PM there will be a Q&A with the concert starting at 8:00 PM. A Champagne reception will follow the concert.

    Stu Phillips will be conducting the second half of the concert. As an added attraction, Bear McCreary will be a guest conductor with his arrangements of the Galactica theme that he did for the new BSG series.

    We are hoping to see many KR fans there.

    INTRADA Annnounces:

    BATTLESTAR GALACTICA - SAGA OF A STAR WORLD
    Composed and Conducted by Stu Phillips
    INTRADA Special Collection Volume 154

    In 1978, composer Stu Phillips began a season-long association with one of the most ambitious science-fiction epics to hit the television screen - Battlestar Galactica Starting with a lengthy pilot episode, Saga of a Star World, Philips would go on to score nearly all of the episodes. Some 33 years later, Intrada is launching a series of albums presenting all the music Philips composed for the show. For this first volume, Intrada presents Phillips' entire magnum opus for the pilot. Performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, this massive score thunders vibrantly as cylons attack, humans flee on a seemingly futile journey, and every obstacle conceivable is thrown in their path. The score contains action, romance, pathos, and heroics...it's everything a good old-fashioned science fiction score should be.

    At the time of the show's airing, MCA records released a soundtrack which featured a rerecording of highlights from the score. And while a promo set from long ago features most of the pilot score in mono, this is the premiere release of the complete score in crisply detailed stereo from the original multi-track elements stored in the Universal vaults. Listeners will note a certain intensity in the playing here not found on the MCA recording, which provides a dynamic fresh sound to a familiar work. The CD includes the complete score, a full version of the Galactica theme (so popular it has performed in numerous concerts), and as an added bonus, the film version of the main title which features the theme specifically recorded for this edit and is unique only to the pilot.

    Future volumes will feature the scores Phillips wrote for the rest of the series. While some episodes were recorded in multi-track stereo, others are in mono and Intrada will present these episodes complete in whatever format they were recorded, providing a definitive listen to one on of sci-fi's most important TV entries. But for now, at long last, Stu Phillips' epic work for Saga of a Star World makes its lonely quest to a shining planet, known as earth!

    This release is limited to 3000 units.

  6. For some reason I had put this in my SAE basket but then deleted it. I have the theme but maybe that is enough.

  7. Yesterday was Stu's birthday. He's 83. He posts at FSM from time-to-time, but not here (that I know of), but I'll say it anyway: Happy birthday!

  13. I found this documentary about the show, and Stu is in it for a small bit (for some reason Peake was not talked to):

    It's a fun documentary. The Hoff tells us he still has the theme from the show as his cellphone ring tone.
