Just read a post on Filmscoremonthly.com's discussion boards... the next FSM releases will include Johnny's score from PENELOPE, previously released in an lp-rerecording on Chapter III.  What do you think?

Morlock- who plans on ordering this, the new Rosza score, and Mutiny on The Bounty.

As guilty pleasures go, Penelope has a couple tracks I like, although I'd probably have to get this regardless. I'll confess to liking the 60s comedy meets Spanish music flavor of La Bostella and Sabada. The former, especially, is actually a nice little tune - I like to play a slowed down version on the piano and pretend he wrote it for something other than another wacky 60s comedy.

What Tsunami release? Tsunami only booleged Fitzwilly and How To Steal a Million. A CD-R bootleg did existed, that also included Not With My Wife, You Don't.

And yes, I'll buy it, though I hope it comes with more muisc, or with another score, à lá Fitzwilly/The Long Goodbye.

I was just giving a link for the sake of Dr. Know's reference, 'Morlock', to make life comfortable.

FSM has set up a page for its upcoming PENELOPE / BACHELOR IN PARADISE 2-CD release, including a slew of sound clips:

http://www.screenarc...ilCD.cfm?ID=318

Quoting the site:

"Penelope was released on LP at the time of the film; however, except for the title song, the album was entirely re-recorded, emphasizing the film's source music. Disc one of this 2CD set features the never-before-released original soundtrack to Penelope followed by the complete LP program. Additional original soundtrack cues to Penelope (outtakes and alternates) are located at the end of disc two, making this the complete Penelope presentation."

No artwork is available at this time, though.

Just ordered mine too. I guess the l.p. version is what we got on the Penelope/Let's Make Waves CD a few years back. It'll be nice to hear the whole score. I love this one, I think it's about the nearest Williams came to a strerotypical Austin Powers score!

This article has me sold and it is indeed a splendid surprise! The Fury-type treatment, with album AND film versions in one? That's the way it should always be done, record companies! I will be most pleased by this, and want this kind of treatment for EVERY Williams score. Rarely, no, never am I disappointed by FSM and Varese's deluxe/expanded/1st time releases for previously unreleased score treatments. And of course... it isn't another new Harry Potter score! WAHOO! My only problem is... why is it compiled with a non-Williams score in a two CD set? Not that I have enything against Henry Mancini, it's just that it makes it a tad bit less affordable for poor CJ. Regardless, I'll get it. :|
