Question

Young Sherlock Holmes

Hi,

I am sure that this has been asked many times but are there still copies of 'Young Sherlock Holmes' available - I do have the original recordings CD's but would love to get hold of the Intrada 2 CD release of a couple of years back.

I know that they do sometimes come up on eBay - there's one on there right now but the $250 seems a little steep - though to be fair it might be a perfectly reasonable amount to ask for - I don't know.

If anyone has one and would be willing to sell or even if anyone has any information I'd be incredibly grateful

Thanks

Hi George,

I contacted Intrada a few months back and they said the rights reverted back to Paramount who are really stingy when it comes to releasing scores, so they said don't expect any time in the next millenium. You'd have to settle for a likely eBay boot.

I have two copies of this release and I would sell one of them. My price is lower than the stupid tomzecat offers at ebays.
Contact me: Droenix@yahoo.de

Please be careful with your sayings. I'm not stupid. this copy is a real Intrada double cd set in perfect condition still sealed which i have bought from a collector. this is a very rare item and very hard to find, it seems that 250 for this gem is reasonnable.

they are too many ppl here pretending selling originals. be sure that this guy isn't selling the recording sessions or the bootleg saying "limited complete edition". at least on ebay if there's a problem with the seller, you can use ebay's claim service

if you don't want it don't bid or buy it but stop criticizing ppl here.

Hi,

Thanks for your responses - Tomezcat, I never said that you were stupid all I said was that I thought that the price you were looking for seemed a bit steep but I also said it might be a fair price to ask as I didn't know. If you didn't sell it via eBay and are willing to revise your price a bit then please email me and we'll see if we can work something out. If not then good luck.

Dave, thanks for that website address - I had no idea it existed - I already have the 2 CD set of the original recording sessions and love it - but the website will be handy for future purchases.

lovittr2003, thanks for that information - it amazes me that some companies cannot see the potential profits of releasing good quality expanded scores. I have no idea if this is anything to do with paramount but I am always constantly surprised that expanded scores for Temple of Doom and Last Crusade have not been made available. I have the bootleg of Last Crusade and love the music and wish it was available in an official release. Young Sherlock Holmes always seems to sell in whatever format it's sold so you would think that it might make sense to make a pressing.

And finally Droenix I have emailed you - but in case you didn't get it I am interested in seeing if we can come to some sort of a deal.

Many thanks guys

All the best

George

Hi Georges

my reply wasn't for for but for Droenix.
Anyway if he's proposing the same cd at a lower price that's fine. i just hope that you won't be dissapointed when you receive it.

tomzecat
May I am wrong, but you tried to sell this 2 CD-set a few months ago at ebay. The winning bid was less than USD 150, but your reserve price was not met. Isn't it crazy to offer this soundtrack now for more than 60 % over this market price ??

Droenix, September 24, 2004; 8:38 PM


60% ? who says that ? you ? get realistic! this item (the original not a cd-r copy of the recording session) has reached many times this amount.
Btw do you spy my auctions or what?

tomzecat-bis, September 26, 2004; 7:45 PM


No, I am watching the market of soundtracks like many of us. You are a heavy buyer and seller. Therefore it was only a question of time to produce interests. I haven't never seen a price of 250 USD for this CD set on a regular auction and your auction sales were below that, what I mentioned above.
cheers
