The Official Intrada Thread


Trent B

Recommended Posts

Yes I think this is the first time a Lucasfilm project has been expanded by one of the film music specialty labels. Bodes well for Willow! I'm sure Star Wars and even Indiana Jones are going to be a whole other kettle of fish... although maybe Intrada could be allowed to tackle The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, or Peter Bernstein's two Ewok scores?

I saw the film once as a kid and don't remember anything about the score.  What's it like?

Music is a mixed bag, half sultry, Noir like moody jazz think The Specialist and has a Bond like adventure tone. The score has a nice triumphant theme that could have been Barrys version of Indiana Jones. It's a great Barry score.

Gosh I hope Willow is in the works, and coming soon!

WILLOW or THE LAND BEFORE TIME.

Just rewatched those two films, and, I really do like those scores, though boy oh boy can you hear the temp tracks they’re based on! Well, never mind. I would buy an expanded release. It wouldn’t even need three discs between the two films, I wouldn’t think.

It's terrific - classic Barry jazzy theme and Black Hole-esque action cues (the bits I've heard on the boot that is - I can't bring myself to watch the film again). I feel a Barry kick coming on :D

Same here! My favourite Horner score by far and a film I have fond memories of seeing in the cinema in '88 (more than a few times, I might add).

And the next Intrada release scheduled along with HOWARD THE DUCK is none other than the world premiere of original John Barry KING RAT score along with OST album which turned out to be a rerecording. 

 

This is the 60s score that Doug Fake was super excited about in his blog. 

 

It's an interesting mature score from Barry. The OST album had been long OOP. Listen to Intrada podcast below:

And.... 

 

...... Also Coming after KING RAT and HTD release is another most wanted release which fans had been clamoring for but had some confusing license ownership. So it's another surprise to be unveiled in their next PODCAST. (I hope it's either WILLOW or ONE OF DINOSAUR'S IS MISSING.)

This is the 60s release I thought might be the original recording of Goldsmith’s Hour of the Gun being discovered and released alongside a remastered version of the album from original elements. Apparently that score’s film recording is still MIA.

 

I knew for sure based on Doug’s hints that if this wasn’t Hour of the Gun, this had to be a Bernstein or Barry score. I’m super please to find out that it was King Rat all along, as that’s a Barry favorite from the era! With this and HTD back to back, what an amazing time to be a Barry fan!

What are the most likely Goldsmith titles to be handled by Intrada? 

Hour of the Gun, MacArthur, The Boys from Brazil are among the most probable, I would say.

Legend, Mulan, Lionheart, Leviathan are my most wanted.

 

Why is that most of Goldsmith's scores in need of a definitive release either start with "M" or "L"?

Because the labels have been going through his work from both ends of the alphabet. Now they're all gonna meet in the middle!

Intrada already did The Boys from Brazil ages ago. Leviathan is owned by an Italian film company that also produced the movie and won't license the score to anyone even though (the labels) they are all pursuing it.

Yeah I think he’s hoping for a reissue, since Intrada has reissued all of their earlier complete Goldsmith releases from that era of their output, in the past few years, except for Boys from Brazil...

Ah I see. Then Add to it EXPLORERS as well and maybe they can add the OST as disc 2 with the songs.

The Boys from Brazil should be remastered and re-released. That one and Explorers should not be that long out of print, that is just not right. I, however, I just have a damaged copy of The Boys from Brazil, so I am hoping for that one to come first.

I don’t consider Hour of the Gun probable any more, now that the title I thought it might be turned out to be King Rat. It goes back in the “presumed lost” category where it was before.

That's true. But to be honest, I'm happy that this is not the hinted at Goldsmith release, because we already have that great re-recording and there are other scores that really need a treatment by Intrada.

I missed the previous edition of The Boys from Brazil so it is on my wishlist as well.

I'd say there's also space for sound improvement.

It's frustrating that so many in print Intrada titles are awaiting a repressing (such as The Rocketeer and Who Framed Roger Rabbit). I understand that the few remaining pressing plants are under pressure to deal with the backlog and all. It seems that Intrada takes longer to get their stuff restocked than LLL for example, I wonder why this is. It's just made me realise one should order the titles one wants immediately rather than waiting (funds permitting of course).

Oh wow!  What a cool release.  A Bernstein score I've never even heard of!

 

This hobby is officially too expensive for me.

Listened to the mini-podcast and I'm 100% sold -- this sounds like a good one to build your Bernstein collection with too, Jay! I don't know what film plot I expected based on that title but it certainly wasn't what Doug described! Holy shit!

 

I've long heard that this was one of Elmer's greatest unreleased scores with a lot of fans pining after it. Excited to finally hear it (and apparently the film is getting a Blu-ray restoration as well, which I might also check out since the plot sounds so intriguing).

Intrada has really been knocking it out of the park lately. Now all we need is a Goldsmith ;)

Oh dip! I listened to the podcast and yea... The music is very good! Can't wait to hear more samples. 

 

BTW, they mentioned in the very end of the podcast that the next title (presumably coming Tuesday Oct 22) is from the Disney vaults. 

 

Presumably that would be the 70s Disney title they previously teased.
