The Official Tadlow Thread

[Jay 4513]

Yup and The Ten Commandments too

[Incanus 2695]

Why doesn't Tadlow make a list of possible candidates and send it to all competitors? it can't be so hard to reach out to 10 small companies to inquire about upcoming releases so that they don't run into these inconveniences all the time.

Sounds like a pretty good and simple idea. Perhaps too simple for them to think about it.

[Woj 1154]

Probably because at the end of the day, they're all competitors? Each company is trying to run a profitable business and doesn't want to show their entire hand.

[publicist 1391]

So if you're Mr. Varése or Mr. LLL, you deny answering a simple question with 'better don't do these 3 things right now, we're negotiating' because...? What disadvantage could stem from that?

[Marian Schedenig 661]

Oh I had forgotten that Fitzpatrick planned the re-record The Blue Max but then LLL set came out so they didn't do it.

I have all three releases of the score and I'd pay premium price for a Tadlow recording.

[Stefancos 4500]

It will never happen!

[Jay 4513]

James Fitzpatrick says, about their version of Obsession:

It seems worth mentioning that the long-rumored re-recording of Jerry Goldsmith's BLUE MAX is about to come upon us:

[Jay 4513]

Here's a larger version of the pic that pub posted:

And here's the other pic that went up at the same time, kinda funny

I think The Blue Max will be the first Tadlow Recording I will buy!

[Stefancos 4500]

Why did they kill Karl Pilkington?

[Jay 4513]

James Fitzpatrick has revealed that they will also re-record Jerry Goldsmith's Inchon

[Jilal 358]

Great news - the original recording is subpar. The score definitely deserves better.

That is awesome news! The score is really good, even if it seems like Patton and Tora! Tora! Tora! in one, The first time I heard, it was my wish to have it got a re-recording. It needs one badly!

Karol

[Incanus 2695]

Dracula! Give us John Williams' Dracula Mr. Fitzpatrick!

[crocodile 1610]

I'm sure he's aware of the demand for this one.

Karol

[Marian Schedenig 661]

I'll absolutely buy Blue Max, of course. I'd been wishing (without much hope initially) for it ever since they started recording Goldsmith.

[Incanus 2695]

Yeah I relatively recently bought the LLL release but will certainly buy this as well.

[publicist 1391]

I just hope the recording is just a wee bit less hot in the mastering department. INCHON would be great though if more Goldsmith, i'd prefer LIONHEART...

[Incanus 2695]

Yes, another one for the wish list. Lionheart!

[crocodile 1610]

I agree, of course. But Inchon needed this more urgently.

Karol

[Woj 1154]

I skipped the LLL Blue Max because the Intrada was enough for me, but I might get a Tadlow rerecording.

[Stefancos 4500]

Moonraker!

[Marian Schedenig 661]

I just hope the recording is just a wee bit less hot in the mastering department. INCHON would be great though if more Goldsmith, i'd prefer LIONHEART...

And Rambo III.

I skipped the LLL Blue Max because the Intrada was enough for me, but I might get a Tadlow rerecording.

The LLL is a significant improvement where sound quality is concerned.

[Stefancos 4500]

I really wonder if the orchestra can handle the intended fury of rambo III

[Jay 4513]

TheGreyPilgrim will tell you which orchestra can

[BloodBoal 5512]

The LSO, because of its versatility!

[Woj 1154]

I'm glad, Marian, for those who wanted to double dip or just discovered it with the LLL. I couldn't.

[Jay 4513]

I sold my (still sealed) Intrada The Blue Max off for a profit as soon as LLL announced their version. That was a freebie.

[Woj 1154]

If I need the sonic upgrade, I know what to do.

[Marian Schedenig 661]

I really wonder if the orchestra can handle the intended fury of rambo III

Surely better than the orchestra that performed the OST.

[Jilal 358]

What I really think is one of Tadlow's strongest points is that their re-recordings are always (?) done at more or less exactly the same tempo as the original. The Morgan/Stromberg re-recordings, for example, whilst obviously well produced and neatly performed, never really synch up with the picture.

Some cues can benefit from a slightly slower or faster tempo, but in general, I'd prefer a re-recording to be done at the same tempo as the original.

[Woj 1154]

Their El Cid recording is one of the most beloved albums in my entire soundtrack collection.

[crocodile 1610]

Their Conan turned me into a fan of this score.

Karol

[Stefancos 4500]

It's a stellar re-recording.

[Incanus 2695]

Their Conan turned me into a fan of this score.

Karol

Ditto.

Their El Cid recording is one of the most beloved albums in my entire soundtrack collection.

A brilliant re-recording and also a cherished part of my collection as well.

[Romão 523]

They've also recorded the definitive Lawrence of Arabia, in my view

[crocodile 1610]

And Taras Bulba is awesome too!

Karol

[fommes 42]

Fall of the Roman Empire - definitely recommended as well!

[Marian Schedenig 661]

The Morgan/Stromberg re-recordings, for example, whilst obviously well produced and neatly performed, never really synch up with the picture.

I don't generally need that of a re-recording, though it's nice in those cases where the original recording is for some reason not available, or has sound or performance issues.

With The Blue Max, I'd love to have a full recordings with the tempi Goldsmith conducted at the 2001 LSO concert. My favourite performance of the score, but the Nerys recording obviously doesn't sound too good.

But I'm sure I'll be very happy with whatever they do, which is most likely the original film tempo.

[Stefancos 4500]

The Nerys Records recording sounds fine you traitor!
