I have the updated "Meet The Press" theme, recently re-recorded as part of the 20th anniversary update to the original "Mission" package. I downloaded it off a program called Soulseek, where there are lots of TV themes and soundtracks and library albums. PM me for a link.

Was anyone watching this morning's "Today" show? One of the themes that JW composed as part of the new "Mission" package played over the closing credits in full, although there was some voiceover as part of a montage of clips of the "Today" crew on set and on location. We discussed it here, it was the one with the trumpet solos. I'm trying to see if anyone taped it because I am also a fan of Maroon 5, the band that was on the show today. Just letting you all know.

On a recent trip I brought a big entire case of my film soundtracks. However, I am considering bringing less the next time I go on a trip. I figure I could bring with me the Gerhardt Classic Film Scores series cds I have along with the Silva/Tadlow compilations of Jerry Goldsmith and Elmer Bernstein. As for John Williams, one thing I have considered is putting together custom made suites of his music from my film score soundtracks. Some of the music I would like to include is contained on his Greatest Hits album from 1999, but I would like to put together more music including some of his works for television such as Amazing Stories. The idea I have is to take selected music from a certain film and make a suite of it, maybe 3 or 4 cues or one long piece of music such as Close Encounters. I have most of his soundtracks except for a few notable films (Jurassic Park, Schindler's List), and his most recent film scores (Memoirs of a Geisha, etc.) Does anyone have some suggestions for what cues I should use? These will be in chronological order according to the release of the films for which these scores were composed.  I appreciate your help.

Does anyone know a good place to download full soundtracks?
