  1. Yes I just opened my AI set a few weeks ago, the discs are fine but the cover booklet is slightly smudged. Can I still get a new copy of the booklet only-Its OOP now?
  2. Williams confirms at Tanglewood that total music for RISE is 140 minutes. https://www.masslive.com/entertainment/2019/08/john-williams-professes-love-of-tanglewood-at-film-night-drops-star-wars-spoiler.html?fbclid=IwAR2Qn-EVBvDKug-9PoSGLoqIVYqu76mRRsyPKqSObxR5vnsdd_6eRQLO6SM
  3. I understand. But when I select a title that I want to hear, (And that depends on the mood) I need to catch up with the all the internet forum hype and furor over a specific release just to familiarise myself and and then dive into the score. Did the same with AI last week, re-read all the QA with Jay and Matessino and then the discussions- it was fun and got me back in the listening mojo.
  4. I had my copy of Harry Potter set on 1st Jan this year and I only got around to playing it until last last week! And I've yet to play Chamber of Secrets. But I just opened my set of AI and have been playing this non stop. So many releases and so little time. But it's fun. Got about 50-60 more releases to get to. All sealed up in my CD cabinet.
  5. My janitor, he was last seen with your Nanny 30 years ago? Have you seen him them both?
  6. GOOD NEWS! Back in stock at LA LA LAND RECORDS. Just got an email flyer from LLL. https://lalalandrecords.com/superman-the-movie-40th-anniv-remastered-limited-edition-3-cd-set/
  7. To date Iam only familiar with the original Planet of the Apes film and score. Never got around to see the remaining sequels(even though I have the movies on my blu ray book set) So Iam intrigued about the other titles on the score set. I have only recently been taken over (say enamored) by Rosenmans music specially for ROBOCOP 2, so I look forward to hearing his score.
  8. New Gerhardt SACDs to my existing collection in the Series CAPTAIN BLOOD & SPELLBOUND.
  9. I think it's my holy grail: Disney's ONE OF OUR DINOSAUR'S IS MISSING (Ron Goodwin). One of the most requested titles from the guys. It's also the first thing I asked Lukas Kendall when I met at the FSM office during the FSM Label days.
  10. New title on August 27th. Update from Doug: 8/17/2019: Vacations are wrapping up for the time being. When Kay returns for duty this coming week, the whole team should be on hand… at least for another week or two! Our next new CD release is scheduled for August 27. There are a number of additional releases approaching the finish line but these days studio staffing remains pretty busy and final approvals tend to move a lot slower than they did in “the old days”. I’m doing double duty, on one hand wrapping up another 1970’s Disney world premiere and on the other hand studying in depth the original manuscripts for the entire Dial M For Murder score, our new recording project happening in just about three weeks or so. Also ahead are a pretty cool set of discs for what amounts to an almost world premiere, and soon afterwards we should be seeing the arrival of a terrific, personal favorite which was at one point going to be simply the best audio release of a classic album from several decade ago, itself a re-recording, only to have things happily result in a world premiere release of the actual soundtrack recordings as well. And there’s plenty more beyond those, too. Stay tuned.
  11. Young Indys First Adventure from LAST CRUSADE and the JFK Suite. Themes from A. I. Artificial Intelligence and the revised Han Solo and The Princess from EMPIRE.
  12. Finally, I opened my sealed copy of this magnificent 3CD set. I know Iam late, had the set since ages but never found the right kind of moment to enjoy the score untill I forced myself at 11pm last night. Wow what a journey. Gorgeous and breadthtaking. The sound is so improved here. The notes mention that it was also recorded at UCLA's Royce Hall. I suppose the Barbara Bonney vocals were recorded there as well as 'David's Arrival' cue. The sound is so vibrant in these recordings that it reminded me of the Williams Spielberg III recording (Alas that album never recorded the AI Themes) The plethora of unreleased material is riveting. Fabulous assembly by Matessino. Too bad this set is now sadly OOP. Hope everyone got their copy. BTW, my cover of the booklet seems a bit having a few printing smudges on it. Do you think LLL might have a few extra booklets? I remember reading once they replaced a few to those who had the same problem.
  13. I skipped the whole customs, heavy shipping price tag and had it (my POTA set ie) shipped directly to my New York address at my aunts house. Someone visiting will bring this to me in coming month or weeks.
  14. Better yet one who could watch the movies by himself while I had to grow up and wait.... 😂
  15. Before I even saw it, my janitor told me that this guy cut his hand off and that he was His father...all when I was looking at the Empire poster in the newspaper. I was only 10 at that time. Lol. And I hadn't seen any of the STAR WARS film. But luckily I had forgotten about it. Only when I saw it finally I was given the right shock moment and afterwards was able to recall and understand what the janitor had told me. Years later...
  16. Good to know. A more close up of the box set pictures would be nice and can you confirm if the box quality is also the same as the HP set. Looks like another High classy production !
  17. In case you didn't know, Vocalion has issued two more albums from the series: Charles Gerhardt - Spellbound: The Classic Film Scores of Miklós Rózsa & bonus track [SACD Hybrid Multi-channel] Charles Gerhardt - Captain Blood: Classic Film Scores for Errol Flynn [SACD Hybrid Multi-channel] https://www.duttonvocalion.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=CDLK4631 https://www.duttonvocalion.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=CDLK4633
  18. I can't get enough of DANCES WITH WOLVES. The LLL set is defintive. Epic and transcending in all respects.
  19. You know all this flack over disc 2 has prevented me from opening my 2cd set. I've lost my nerve... (sigh)
  20. I agree. The percussion is really jarring but in good way. I think the OST and film version are different recordings.
