  1. Williams had designed to mix the choir with the orchestra in a subtle way without overpowering the voices. This enabled the mysterious effect of the cue in Map Room. I believe he mentioned it particularly in The Making of Raiders ..book.
  2. Yeah and on the heals of getting this godsend recording it was announced that now Rhino would release the complete 2CD set… now that was an awesome time some 22 years ago!
  3. Yeah it’s probably the same thing he wanted like the 2 Indy themes. Incidentally the Map Room cue also re-uses a motif from the Peru Idol sequence which is like a deep intellectual archaeological excavations theme for Indy inter connecting his craft.
  4. Even Robert Townson mentioned in an interview it wasn’t a great recording acoustically. But later projects like NORTHBY NORTHWEST and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL came out much better. I really like the sound of their SUPERMAN recording conducted by John Debney.
  5. I think the Ark of The Covenant and The Medallion are basically part of each other. We hear them in the final opening of the Ark sequence of course.
  6. Yes. I have that too but im now seeing jewel case releases on ebay.
  7. Yes me too. But now I’m seeing jewel case releases on eBay here and there from Australia..I think.
  8. Can anyone shed some light on my query? Please.
  9. Yeah BRAINSTORM would be awesome but its pretty much inevitable DEATH BECOMES HER.
  10. Was the standalone Concorde releases issued as jewel case packaging. I saw some titles on eBay. As far as I can tell these came out as digipacks. Even the box set had these in the same format. Kindly please confirm. Anyone? Thanks.
  11. Death Becomes Her and Horner's BRAINSTORM woyld be perfect. And only this past week we lost its cast member. I cant remember her name...
  12. InnerSpace really put LLL on my radar back then. A new reissue with the Ost arrangement + songs would be nice. Same with EXPLORERS but thats Intrada.
  13. I once played RUBY CAIRO (John Barry) in the office. At the the end of the cassette run my boss said to me “ I don’t know what you were playing..but I LIKED IT”. John Barry always works with the regular folk
  14. He came to the screening as Friedkin wanted him to score the film. But the conversation went down hill. Friedkin: I want you to write a better score than CITIZEN KANE. Herrmann: ..Then you should have made a Better film than CITIZEN KANE... Film Score Monthly covered this story in a very vivid article. I'll post the link to the download later in the day.
  15. I hope we get more footage of my city Karachi.
  16. And Finally my copy from Presto is here. Hope to visit it this weekend !
  17. Herrmann would have made it work no matter what. Imagine what THE EXORCIST would have turned out like had he actually scored it.
  18. I agree it appears to be very luminiscent. The review of the disc in 4k is someting else. Goldsmith's score is something else on this surround mix I hear.
  19. Mostly what transpires between Matessino and Richardson is soley on what goes in and what goes out via notes made by Williams. Honestly, I'd love to be fly on the wall but it would be actually a very cringe worthy moment for some of us... if we heard everything.
  20. 'Sound The Bells ' was composed in honor of wedding of the Royal Japanese Couple. So given the opportunity Williams could be up for a commision. Maybe we can have the same guy who asked Williams about scoring a Bond film upto it?
  21. [ In HOLLOW MAN] When Kevin Bacon attacks the woman in her room and we cut to Elizabeth Sue driving her car; the music is charged and violent. But Goldsmith keeps on scoring it despite the fact the scene has changed while the audience doesnt need to see whats ongoing but they feel the whole terrifying thing musicaly. That is pure genius.
  22. It turned out differently but I was aiming for exactly what I clarified.
  23. Yes, ofcourse the labels can. What I meant is that the general understanding now is that every new John Williams expanded project will only be supervised by Matessino himself. Which is exactly whats been hapenning ever since Quartet Records did their TOM SAWYER set which was the last time some one else did the mastering/expansion etc.
  24. It would be awesome if its HOLLOW MAN. With LLL's Goldsmith at Fox Vol 5 2CD set just released and HOLLOW MAN would be just terrific. And Intrada also a Goldsmith lined up so who knows...?
