He tries to play classical guitar. But in Australia they kinda dig him. ---------------- Alex Cremers

John Williams? Nah, I prefer Julian Bream. He's the true master. ---------------- Alex Cremers

There's another Ewoks movie, it's called Return of the Jedi. The movies' ending (30 min. or so) and Williams' music are all what is left. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Just because I've formulated the question in a certain monotonous copycat way it doesn't mean that the substance is of little significance or value. There are other threads if this bothers you. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Perhaps it is you who is getting old, you do not think? ---------------- Alex Cremers

Stefancos wrote: We should consider ourselves lucky. Imaging there was a character explaining what the creature was doing there. This forum wouldn't even exist if that happened. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Is it also your opinion, Neil and Stefancos, that Jurassic Park is cream of the crop? That perhaps...caugh, caugh...this is superior sound engineering? ---------------- Alex Cremers

If only I could hire Tim Morrison... ---------------- Alex Cremers-who thinks JFK is great partly due to Morrison's blowing

...on Attack of the Clones? I only heard two tracks but can't wait for the Ultimate Edition. The sound quality is staggering, unbelievable out of this world. I know there has been a thread on him recently where he's been bashed a bit(and sometimes deservedly so), but man, if this guy is in the mood he sure rulez. Or is it the recording studio? Hmmmm... ---------------- Alex Cremers

Is there an official recording?????????????? ---------------- Alex Cremers

I have seen this happen and it was no big deal. Some orchestra in Prague was recording a certain project and I was there the whole time which was 5 days or so. Back then I was surprised, to say the least, that the next day , a few musicans ware replaced. Some got ill, some others had more important assignments. This is what can happen if you assembly an orchestra where the musicans are hired for just one occasion. This is why there is no name mentioned for the orchestra. It's just a bunch of people who like the extra money there getting when playing for film projects or pop gigs. These people have contracts with respected national orchestras. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Darth Wojo and Chris, don't tell me you're still loosing messages? Haven't you read my post in the "Invalid Session" thread? It's one of the last posts. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Once again, LOL ---------------- Alex Cremers

You've just said the essence of their differentness ---------------- Alex Cremers

Which only a real professional can answer. Beware, next replyer! ---------------- Alex Cremers

John would have to go back to the wah wah guitars and triangle scores of the early seventies. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Aah, the puppet was so much better. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Or a variety of people forming an orchestra only for the occasion. I think it is even possible that there are different players throughout the score. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Star Wars? The soundtrack? A New Hope? The soundtrack of Star Wars is perfect from the first note to the last whilst ESB has its moments. I don't think ESB is in my Williams top 10. I know it's good but somehow I'm not that involved. I think. the music is perhaps to busy. If it's deserted island time I would choose Empire of the Sun over Empire Strikes Back any day, anytime. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Just a year? These Pixar guys work fast! Looks great. Another hit I'm sure. ---------------- Alex Cremers

If Gerhardt is so much loved and appreciated by soundtrack fans all over the world why don't they release his unreleased work? ---------------- Alex Cremers

One thing about it that I remember is that the Suite sounded a bit more emotional, more human, perhaps more symphonic then the extra terrestrial sound of the OST. Anyone agree? Btw, is this the Star Wars by Gerhardt everyone here is talking about or is there still another one, also by Gerhardt, but with more tracks? ---------------- Alex Cremers

I just found Gerhardt's Star Wars CD on the internet. I was right. I didn't want to buy it because there were only 6 Star Wars tracks on it. Track 7 is some sort of Concert Suite from Close Encounters running 21 minutes. I remember liking this Suite very much. ---------------- Alex Cremers

Yes, I have "Empire" and "Return" but Star Wars, nope. I do remember this Star Wars/Close Encounters CD but did not buy it. Is this not the CD in question? ---------------- Alex Cremers
