Do you like scores from the 60s?


You don't?

If you put John Williams in a dryer, you get Jerry Goldsmith! You get the downside version!

I think Jason has said before most scores before the 80's he doesn't really like. Well obviously with some exceptions from the 70's for Williams and such.

There's only a few scores from the 70's I like but the rest and from the 60 backwards I really don't care for at all. A lot of these type releases from Intrada have saved me money. I mean ya it's great for those who like them but it's just not my cup of tea.

60's score are collective items for me. Not for listening. If I have spear money, I might buy those which are classic. In this case, for example, if they release Psycho, I thing I will buy it.

You buy music purely for its collectible value, and not to listen to it?

Of course collectibility is a factor, but if the music doesn't inspire me, I'm not going to buy it...

I like some 60's scores. I like The Sand Pebbles, the Star Trek TOS scores, and El Cid (thats '61 right?)

Among all the things I have done in my short and pitiful life, becoming an inside joke on JWFAN is the one I'm the least proud of.

John Williams sucks, he doesn't write with a quill pen, there is no emotion in pencil music ! Purcell is the man !

Well, some. I brought them because they are famous. I admit that there are some score I truly love, i.e. EL CID. I don't know how good it is before listen to it. And I picked up every Goldsmith I could (sadly there are still many I did not obtain yet)
I did listen to every albums I brought for at least ONCE, than decide what to keep in my cowon X7. It has only 160GB you know.

Well, this new "Universal 100th Anniversary" line bodes well for future Williams releases.
"It's still baffling to me. I sit down with a pencil and a piece of paper and do my best... The remarkable thing is that my music is heard by billions of people." --John Williams

"Let me say, however, there is no "next" John Williams. Sadly, he is unique--- a figure who simultaneously embodies and transcends the music of all the masters of film music who preceded him (much like Brahms and Wagner of the Romantic era). He comes from a time when the craft of music in film was still one of the ear, heart and mind. Today, sadly, the craft is largely technical. Most composers do not conceive their music "inwardly" but rather at the computer--- and with rather limited skills, musically, at that. The inner spirit knows no boundaries--- our plastic abilities, sadly, do. John is a man of spirit, heart, intellect and soaring music." -- Conrad Pope about John Williams

I wonder if it will skew toward some of their restoration titles, like Jaws, E.T., To Kill a Mockingbird (PLEASE). Maybe I could even dare dream for Born on the Fourth of July?

Considering they're branding the releases with the same graphic package Universal is using for the DVDs and Blu-rays, I think it's very likely.

At a certain risk for even speculating... what's wrong with whatever the current release of Jaws is? Is it still incomplete, or does the sound need improving?

Intrada has two more titles going OOP on June 18th:

Gil Melle - Borderline

Alfred Newman and Sol Kaplan - Dangerous Crossing / Leigh Harline - Pick Up On South Street


Roger has also announced the first clues for the June 12th titles:

We move from recognizing the 60s last time to the 90s this time. One Signature Edition featuring the premiere release of a 90s score to a family/fantasy film. The other is a Special Collection release featuring the rejected score to a late 90s title.

Well obviously rejected. Goldsmith thought it was a sequel to the Dennis the Menace. How wrong he was. It was much worse.

I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

Best guesses I've seen so far are:

Randy Newman - Air Force One (1997)
Patrick Doyle - Stepmom (1998)
Ennio Morricone - What Dreams May Come (1998)
Graeme Revell - Eaters of The Death (The 13Th Warrior) (1999)


I wish it could be Alan Silvestri's Mission: Impossible or Howard Shore's Ransom, but those are from 1996.

I can't think of any family/fantasy films from the 1990s that would be "Signature Edition" line worth (IE, obscure) instead of Special Collection worthy.

No way they'd be releasing this over Goldsmith's score. That would be like saying: "Hey, let's release an inferior version of this score instead of the real deal" No fucking way.

This should help come up with ideas for the Family/Fantasy film:

http://en.wikipedia....ms_of_the_1990s

Just gotta whittle that list down to films that are also considered "family" films, and films that have never had it's score released before.

EDIT: So far the only possibility I see on that list is Stanley Myer's score to The Witches from 1990

Roger has posted a bunch of new clues since my last post:

For once some clues that don't make people guess within 2 seconds. And no one has mentioned either title yet. Both are by composers very well represented on this label.


Oooh...I think I led you astray since I mixed up a date. Gotta love a wild goose chase. Just to clarify my earlier comment, one is from 1994 and the other from 1996.


It's probably fair to say the Signature Edition's composer is better known for horror and sci-fi, but he entered a fantasy period at this juncture.


I therefor predict the titles are:

Richard Band - Dragonworld (1994) [Family/Fantasy Signature Edition]
and
Jerry Goldsmith - Two Days In The Valley (1996) [Rejected Special Collection]

Doug's Corner essentially confirms 2 Days In The Valley and Dragonworld

6/9/12
Our two latest releases offer never-before-released music from movies of the nineties. You'll find one a cool score from a crime thriller (with lots of trumpet!) and one a colorful musical fantasia for a warm fantasy. Worlds apart. Two brand new CDs to ponder and hopefully purchase!
