Question

Scores you wish you owned

Hello,

If you could purchase any 5 film scores in mint condition and at a reasonable price what would they be? - (pick the scores that you want because you love the music not because of thier worth)

Best Regards,
David Phoenix, AZ.

Well, I restricted myself to EXISTING CDs.

RENT-A-COP (Goldsmith)
ENTER THE DRAGON (Schifrin)
THE JACKAL (Burwell)
FACE/OFF 2CD (Powell)

Cannot name a fifth one right now.

Scores I would choose because I love the music (although some aren't a release yet..I keep hoping!)

A Sound of Thunder- Nick Glennie Smith
National Velvet (1944)
D.A.R.Y.L. (mid 80's Disney film)
The Count of Monte Cristo (most recent release from a couple years ago- just can't seem to find it- I think its Edward Shearmur).
Knights of the Round Table (from the 50's or 60's I think)

There's my wish list! :)

I will refer to existing CDs:

- A SUMMER STORY, by Georges Delerue
- EYE OF THE NEEDLE / THE LAST EMBRACE, by Miklós Rózsa
- RUNAWAY, by Jerry Goldsmith
- LINK, by Jerry again...

If I were a rich man, these CDs would be mine, but I'm affraid they will be out of my collection and into my dreams forever and ever...

Most of the scores already mentioned.

All the original Varese cd club releases I am missing like Fedora, Raggedy Man, Bloodline/Red Sonja, etc. and a few rare and out of print soundtracks by Jerry Goldsmith like Masada, Innerspace and the like.

The Varese Club 2 cd version of the The Robe, Omega Man, Knight Rider, Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation (How'd I miss that one? I grew up on Mancini). Those are at the top of my hard to find list, especially since I have both Predator and Die Hard coming.
