Jordi isn't a midget is he, y'know, like James Horner?
No, he's very tall, about 1.25 metres I believe. And yet he doesn't like John Powell's second best animated score. -

I thought you were banned for frequent use of an extremely offensive, racist word? Or was this some other ban?
Powell's second best animated score is clearly Robots. (Third is clearly Bolt.) -

I just finished watching a fabulous documentary called Music for the Movies: The Hollywood Sound featuring performance of Golden Age classics such as The Adventures of Robin Hood, Laura, The Song of Bernadette, The Red River and many, many others. Host and narrator John Mauceri conducts the BBC National Orchestra of Wales with interviews of David Raksin, Fred Steiner and performers of the original scores. This is a 90 minute gem describing the process of scoring in the Golden Age from spotting to recording and some of the new performances are actually conducted - passionately - to picture. Seeing Errol Flynn dash on screen to a modern recording of "Duel, Victory, And Epilogue" from The Adventures of Robin Hood is thrilling. Or Raksin's brilliant romantic and mysterious opening music from Laura. An eye opening experience. Now, I'm probably biased but I've been listening and collecting film music since 1993 but I honestly feel that the best music produced out of any era came from Hollywood's Golden Age.
Anyway, I'm now inspired to listen to some of these but where do I start...
Well, I'm going to begin with Kojian's recording of The Adventures of Robin Hood. 45 minutes is good enough for today. I'll then move onto a 27 minute suite from Laura and then I'll re-introduce myself to Newman's The Song of Bernadette.
Bliss!

Innerspace (JERRY)
God I love this LLL album, it's just as enjoyable as browsing through Steven's babe topic.
The album isn't too long for me... in fact it can go on forever just like Steven's babe topic.
Didn't Jerry write the sweetest love theme? I would say it's just as sweet as Steven's ................ That's quite enough of that, DT.
Edit: Oh sorry, almighty mod-man.

NP: How To Train Your Dragon - John Powell
Fun score for sure but there is something bothering me about the sound of the score. I don't know if it's how Shawn Murphy recorded the live orchestra or whether there are over dubs of synth ochestra over the live players but the organic sound of a live orchestra is missing. It's sounds incredibly thin like a lot of Zimmer's synthy action scores. Murphy has done some great work with Powell in the past but there is something left to be desired with this recording that is sucking some of the fun out of the listening experience.

ALIENS (Horner)
Combat Drop is the single most awesome unused Horner-composed cue I've ever heard. But I admit it wouldn't have worked for the scene in the film. That being said, Aliens has some long instances of seemingly uninteresting atmosphere music. But they are absolutely essential to build up to the completely kickass second half of the score, which has action aplenty, and some of Horner's finest writing to date: Ripley's Rescue, Facehuggers, Futile Escape, Going After Newt, Bishop's Countdown, Queen to Bishop: all riveting stuff, the kind which just isn't written anymore. The recording is brilliant, because this stands for sheer orchestral power.
By the way, I'm playing this LOUD AS A MOTHERF__K !!!! I'm sure you all understand."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. -

It's a fun score. I have to give it another listen because it didn't instantly capture my attention. I was really annoyed at the recording and the odd sound of the fake sounding orchestra. Like I said took me completely out of the listening experience.

It's the brass. It sounds, for lack of a better term - squeaky. The same as his older scores like Evolution. -

I see it's available at Play & Amazon as MP3 downloads , but that's only for UK or US customers ...
