Just different enough not to ruffle my feathers, but clearly it formed the basis of Horner's opening. Yeah but combined with all of the Prokofiev (listen to the October Cantata clip I posted, for one example) it starts to add up in distracting fashion. Still, I'd buy an expanded Land Before Time in a heartbeat. Perhaps Balto is the first of several Universal animated Horner expansions....

Two scores on one CD. Same composer (and a class act as well). Both TV movies from the mid-80s. One featuring an actress I had such a crush on back in high school... Okay, TMI.

I am only bothered by the Peter and the Wolf stuff, the more lyrical stuff doesn't bother me. One buys these for updated (note how i din't say *bettered*) sound quality.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Preferring Balto to LBT is an odd but intriguing viewpoint, I do declare. Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NL197 368 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Doug's Corner 10/27/2018 Ok so this time it’s the 80’s and the 90’s. Two scores on one CD from two Fox TV movies from the 80’s by the same popular composer plus 1 greatly expanded 79-minute CD from a Universal film score released in the 90’s by another popular composer. Both artists notched Academy Awards into their belts during their highly successful careers. Artwork, contents and audio samples will be posted on our site Monday eve, October 29. Orders will begin shipping on Tuesday the 30th.http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/sc.13/category.60330/.f?fbclid=IwAR3_2_M9ZgkfmkyjZOrL78viyUVrf-hTT4xInkv2zOvbJ0KK98hFYxPo1hE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I don't need anything of A13 that i haven't had since 1999. The animation movies and Willow have much higher priority (it's also more varied music). Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Willow is probably the only one where Horner's lame attempt to rationalize the loads of uncredited thefts makes some sense: the sheer amount of quotes and how effortless they play off against each other (different idioms/musical epochs) is masterful in a homage-y kind of way. Many others are not. Simple as that. And of course they are not better than the source (in some cases they are the same). They are just put behind a big, splashy fantasy movie et voilá: suddenly they make sense! *cf unnamed moviefan#459 Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,012 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 A clue for two next week's releases: Quote One is the premiere release of a score to a family adventure from the early '90s. You may not have ever heard of it. The second (if it comes in on time) is a legendary release of an early '80s adventure/western -- straight reissue of the original LP. That's all there was folks.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Yes, there's a whole section of the movie missing. Between "Escape From the Tavern" and their, er, escape from the snowy mountain village (the beginning of "Canyon of Mazes").
