Question

What scores are you listening to right now? + comments?

Hello,


In my cd changer right now:


1."The Stalking Moon" - Fred Karlin (1969) - Great 60's western score
2."East Side/West Side"(lp Transfer) - Kenyon Hopkins (1963) - More great jazz from early 60's television.
3."I Have Never Forgotten You" - Lee Holdridge (2007) - Another quality release by Intrada.
4."The Other Conquest" - Samuel Zyman/Jorge Reyes (1998) - Don't care much for it, Might have to part with this one.
5."Escape From Fort Bravo" - Jeff Alexander (1953) - My favorite score of the five scores from the newest FSM western box set.
6."Jack the Ripper" - Pete Rugolo (1959) - Great score, wish it would get a remastered cd release.

How about you?


Best Regards,
David Phoenix, AZ.

Hi,

On my mp3-player today:

1. Spider-Man 2 (Danny Elfman). Great score. Received it last week. Bought the score for the first film a few weeks ago (bargin bin). Don't know why I overlooked these scores at the time they were released.
2. Sunshine (John Murphy). Great score, to bad they didn't gave it an official release....but at least I have this *erh* unofficial promo.
3. Howl's Moving Castle (Joe Hisaishi). Beautifull soundtrack. Just received it. Instandly liked it.
4. Iron Eagle (Basil Poledouris). YEAH!!!
5. And last but not least: Varese's box with Elmer Bernstein's rejected scores. Wow! My favorite is the Scarlett Letter.

Regards,

Erik

John Barry - Boom! and
Mark Snow - Private Fears in Public Places

Barry is as great as expected and reminds me a little of Quiller. Snow's score for Alain Resnais is
surprisingly beautiful and has something french about it.

"reminds me of Quiller"...sigh, seems I have to order something... ;-)

- Oh, I'm playing

LE CERCLE ROUGE (Eric Demarsan) - I'm not that enthusiastic so far, but then again I'm on track 14 only.
