  1. Eject the cd and play it again. It could be a motor issue or worse check if it hasn’t scratched your cd.
  2. Good question ? nowadays you can easily get all the stuff online.back in those days it was all VHS format.
  3. I think it just adds some realism to the whole thing since its all NASA related.. I grew up reading National Geographic/ Time magazine. It had tons of similar pics. This is probably what the studios PR dept provided to Intrada. So they cannot be blamed.
  4. The first time I rented PRESUMED INNOCENT was on a VHS copy to see how Williams music sounded. Only to find myself bewildered that the film hardly any music at all. It was a studio print with some temp track that did not even remotely resembled Williams music at all but it was slow quiet music and I remember vividly the ferry scene had no music at all. I never saw the movie again until a few weeks ago in anticipation of the new release. Somehow I had missed the opportunity to buy the Varese CD. I remember finding a copy in my local shop and pondering over it. I did not have enough money to buy it and when I came back a few days later to buy it, it was gone. A year later I found out that a college friend had bought it. And he thought it was by John Barry. .. Anyways I should have my copy finally this week..
  5. The last time I had a Multi channel Williams SACD was the 20th Anniversary of E.T. Although it had an intersting surround mix but nothing compared to the LLL 2CD edition. I hope to get this only as a novelty of the SACD format. In comparasion how does it fare with the Vienna set?
  6. Ha. Fast forward to a 2023 podcast with Mike Matessino: “ ..Oh! we had to intervene and stop the previous Vinyl master of the LLL programe because ………”
  7. Im sure they are awaiting new pressing and shipping from US.
  8. My only peeve is that they didn't replicate the Multi Channel mixlayer on the SACD -they could easily do that that using blu ray audio which has the wonderful dolby Atmos split. Oh well, hope to grab this month end . You now how quickly these run out and into the hands of Ebay/secondary market speculators.. The Violin Concerto Cd would be nice to on SACD! OFF TOPIC: But Mobile Fidelity is issuing Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' in a new remastered SACD in November! (Stereo) Now that's a keeper!
  9. Here is the Japanese SACD edition unboxing @lairdo@lairdo It's Stereo..
  10. Unfortunately I couldn't enjoy much of it and its an interesting piece but the sound quality didn't do justice here. Hope to hear it again in good quality or better if it gets a proper album recording. The beginning does sound unusually comical
  11. Mine shipped from UK on the 1st. Right on time…..
  12. LA LA LAND RECORDS Announces : SCARFACE -Expanded Motion Picture Soundtrack Music by Giorgio Moroder 2CD Limited Edition Available June 14, 2022
  13. MATINEE Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDSMITH INTRADA ISC 479 Intrada Special Collection Volume ISC 479 Film Date: 1993 Album Date: 2022 Time: 65:59 Tracks: 30 Expanded release of Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack for flavorful Joe Dante movie! Expanded release of Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack for flavorful Joe Dante movie! Set during the tense 1962 Cuban missile crisis when the United States and the Soviet Union became poised for nuclear war, the Universal Picture put young stars Simon Fenton, Omri Katz, Lisa Jakub alongside grownups John Goodman, Cathy Moriarty and the premiere of new horror movie from sensational producer Laurence Woolsey (Goodman). Key West, Florida is setting for combination comedy, schlock horror... and frighteningly real period picture unfolding during crucial turning point in sixties Cold War history. Director Dante melds terrific brew of entertainment both fun and serious, with Woolsey movie-within-a-movie premiere sharing time with gentle youth love story. Both play out while world - especially those inhabitants of Key West - cope with possible annilhilation and nuclear fallout. Dante turns to his favorite composer, Jerry Goldsmith, to find delicate balance between comic producer and his premiere, tender moments of young teens discovering love and WWIII. Not a simple feat but Goldsmith delivers with perfection. Album of highlights originally saw release in 1993. Intrada CD now features entire Goldsmith score from pristine stereo mixes made by veteran engineer Bruce Botnick, vaulted at Universal. Several previously unreleased cues now appear but spotlight goes to "Mobilization". Here, composer takes a moment for his signature musical military muscle, with crisp trombone fanfare-figures answered by equally crisp French horn, trumpet responses, steady percussion underneath. Also included are handful of alternate cues. Film itself places unrelated song between last score cue ("Previews") and End Credits, composed as two separate pieces. Original album beautifully joins both cues into one 8-minute suite. Intrada release features both separate and combined presentations. Colorful package design by Kay Marshall, informative notes by John Takis complete nice presentation. Alexander Courage orchestrates, Jerry Goldsmith composes, conducts. Intrada Special Collection CD available while quantities and interest remain! **** Roger Feigelson post: Intrada announces an expanded edition of Jerry Goldsmith's score to the 1993 Universal film Matinee. The film is part of the lengthy collaboration between Goldsmith and director Joe Dante (Gremlins, Explorers, InnerSpace) and is the final soundtrack in that relationship in need of an expansion. The score is centered around two themes, a whimsical one for the filmmaker/showman Lawrence Woolsey and a charming, busy theme with a tinge of nostalgia for the character of Gene. But there's more in this theme-rich score, with a love theme infused with period flavor and based on Max Steiner's A Summer Place. Combined with action and suspense, Matinee provided Goldsmith with a wealthy opportunity to create a variety of colorful ideas. This expanded edition increases the runtime of the score proper to 51 minutes, including the long sought-after cue "Mobilization," representing the sparse appearance of Goldsmith's military presence in the score as the onscreen Cuban missile crisis heats up. To produce this release, Intrada had access to the 48-track scoring sessions that contained the three-channel digital stereo mixes made for the film by Bruce Botnik – all in pristine, crisp and detailed sound. In the film, filmmaker Lawrence Woolsey (John Goodman) barrels into Key West, his sights set on the historic Strand Theater which he plans to trick out with “Atomo-Vision” and “Rumble-Rama” for an advance screening of his latest opus, Mant! Meanwhile, local teen and Navy-brat Gene, a dedicated fan of genre flicks, and his colorful assortment of friends navigate growing up during a frightening crisis with Cuba just a stone's throw away. This includes Gene's crush Sherry who is stalked by her ex-boyfriend Harvey, as if things weren't complicated enough. But when Gene sees through Woolsey’s promotional tricks and offers to help, the impresario takes the boy under his wing and expounds upon the cathartic power of horror pictures—a lesson that is especially poignant since Gene’s father has been deployed to the front lines of Cuba. All roads converge during the premiere of Mant! when a lust-crazed Harvey, recruited into operating Woolsey’s theater wizardry while wearing a hokey ant costume, decides to take matters into his own hands—or claws, as the case may be.

  14. Your collection is missing a lot. E.g. The Gerhardt recording, Marnie, Trouble With Harry, NBNW, VERTIGO....
  15. I kinda felt it was a Theme for John Williams himself than Obi Wan. Both are Old, wise and have seen so much. I think it goes both ways if you look at it.
  16. Actually the timing of the new WILLOW series would be an excellent opportunity to revisit the original film release on a 4K restoration and remastered/ reissue of the soundtrack expanded ofcourse would be perfect !!!
  17. I just saw that at the International Website : Product expected to ship by June 1st, 2022.
