bruce marshall reacted to Thor in John Williams' April 1980 debut Boston Pops performance (2020 HD broadcast)
Myth. There's the true story about the rehearsal of "America, The Dream Goes On" a couple of years into his tenture, where Williams stormed off because of the unruly orchestra members (apparently a consequence of the more informal/lacking discipline of the Arthur Fiedler era), but I've never heard anything about the Pops being unhappy with his hiring and/or programming of his music. Quite the contrary.
By the way, great to finally see this, his first "Evening at Pops". Love the REIVERS suite (I've only ever heard it before, never SEEN it performed live), in particular. Just points out, once again, that a boxed set of all these programs, especially the Williams-conducted ones, needs to be released!

You are, yes. Although it has a couple of superb highlights scattered about.

bruce marshall got a reaction from Yavar Moradi in Billy Goldenberg has passed away
One of the best, most innovative, and underrated Hollywood composers ever.
I loved him so much I wrote an article about COLUMBO just so I could praise the amazing RANSOM FOR A DEAD MAN score.
Maybe, like Shirley Walker, he will get his due in the aftermath.

I created a track list for the untitled LP.

Anything but Joker. It was fine, but not best score in 12 months. Rise of Skywalker here.

bruce marshall reacted to Edmilson in Vote on the World Soundtrack Public Choice Award
Voted for A Hidden Life, by my boi JNH. Sorry, TROS fans .
In any case, Joker will end up as the winner, no doubts. Even the normies are liking Hildur's score. My brother for example isn't a film music nerd like myself, and told me he liked the music on Joker when he watched the movie.

bruce marshall reacted to NL197 in The Official James Horner Thread
Wow, that publicist really loves to lay on the disdain. He’s the JWFan equivalent to FSM’s late RM Eastman with the levels of arrogance and insults flying at everyone who isn’t him. He’s on ignore because I find that kind of thing he does just lame and tiresome. I’d rather focus on positives than pointless criticism. Whatever his axe is that he feels needs grinding, it’s likely a polished stump at this point.
Also the only music in JADE that wasn’t used much was the Chinese source music. Most of the score itself was used. Edited as most scores are, but used in the film.

Sometimes, it would be better if these specialty labels just released remastered versions of OSTs.

bruce marshall reacted to Smeltington in Rate Ludovic Bource's score to The Artist
Yes, I added the FYC tracks in with the OST tracks, so now I have more tracks I don't listen to.

A simple "yes" would suffice.

I don't blame you - I don't believe a word he's saying either!

bruce marshall reacted to Tom Guernsey in What Is The Last Score You Listened To? (older scores)
Not on the first one as I recall. At least nothing intrusive. Sound and performance are both really good. Great selections too, nice variety.

bruce marshall reacted to Sweeping Strings in What Is The Last Film You Watched? (Older Films)
It's an acronym of the thread title and I think the OF in brackets might be for 'Or Films'.
I seem to remember Richard/NOF previously stating his dislike of the Nolan Batmans, so him watching 2 of them again is curious.

bruce marshall reacted to Brundlefly in John Williams: Unpopular Opinions
I am not a fan of his concert arrangements in general, because he just streamlines the themes so that they all sound the same emotionally by ending with a clichéd orchestral outburst. I even sold my Williams-Spielberg-collaboration-box.
