Jay 37,352 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Oh! I just saw that there actually is a different update on their site, that I missed before: UPDATE: Due to overwhelming in-person turnout, Mr. Mancina was unable to sign all of the pre-ordered CDs on the day of the event. He has graciously agreed to sign the remaining orders, and they’ve been express-shipped to his studio for him to sign, and we’ll be filling orders in the order they were received as soon as we receive them back from Mr. Mancina. We thank you for your patience, but refunds are available for customers who do not wish to wait. We’ll post more information in this space as updates become available. Thanks to everyone for helping make this a great event! So I guess there's no way to tell when that will actually be. Bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. A. Ron 1,742 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Great news! I saw a couple weeks ago that they were also getting other Mancina scores signed so I went ahead and ordered Speed, which will be entirely new to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,686 Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 I've been absolutely hooked on the extended Waterspouts - that section with only the strings (presumably under dialogue) is addictive. I'm starting to get used to this score being chronological. At one point I considered moving a few tracks around, such as Dorothy IV to before House Visit. Except for omitting some key tracks, I think Mancina did a really good job arranging the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,352 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I think this presentation flows better than the original album's. I also really, REALLY appreciate having his full end credits cue - it wraps up the score perfectly! I don't really listen to the Van Halen version of the end credits much.

Richard Penna 3,686 Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 I listened to Respect the Wind a few times on the OST, but it's guitar overload. I agree that his entire original cue is a better way to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Respect the Wind is rather random and meandering. The guitar is implemented extremely well in the rest of the score. Jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,686 Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 For me it's not just the meandering nature but that the entire cue is dominated by it. I can understand (and by understand, I don't mean 'support') that they wanted to feature Van Halen prominently... but for 9 minutes, over footage of clouds? Why not a song followed by a nice credits piece by Mancina? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. A. Ron 1,742 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I understand how you might say "Respect the Wind" doesn't fit with the rest of the score -- it was written by Van Halen after all - but I think it's great, both as a piece of music and as an end to the score.

Asterra 0 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Resurrecting this thread. I had been waiting on this advent for, well decades, obviously. I'm happy that this album now exists. It fills almost every gap in what I consider to be my favorite score of all time. Conspicuously missing is this variant of Drive-In Twister. It's definitely the one I wanted the most. Yes, it's just a variant of an earlier track. But it was such a perfect fit for that moment in the movie. No real hope of isolating the track from the movie itself, either, since the whole soundscape is so busy. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asterra 0 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 They didn't just ask Bob to come in and change up the track without Mancina's knowledge. He did that.

Precisely the point of my comparison. There's little value in dismissing a track for its transparent lack of variety when it is nonetheless fully legitimized as a presence in the movie itself.

Pretty sure that's exactly what music editors do all the time if they can't get the composer to make the change. Probably some library percussion in this case. And if it's not a legitimate alternate cue by the composer, and isn't for a pivotal scene/moment, I doubt a label is going to recreate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A much, much better score than you'd expect for a direct-to-DVD Disney movie. The sequel score is basically more of the same, with my main regret being that the main title track wasn't a completely new recording, but instead the original track with a few newly recorded overlays.

Trope 527 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Brother Bear is a favourite of mine. It's a shame that a score-only album was never released, but the 20 or so minutes of score on the official soundtrack are excellent. It's one of the first scores that as a kid I remember having a big impact on the scenes it accompanied, especially the tribal percussion and choir. There are some effective emotional moments as well, such as at 5:25 in this track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,436 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Between Twister and Tarzan, Mancina scored some of my favorite movies as a child. I'd surely welcome a Legacy Edition of both Tarzan and Brother Bear, but Disney is unfortunately slow as a snail when expanding their classic scores.
