Henry B 50 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 That's not true. There's a cameo in Enchanted, and it may have appeared in one or two other scores (I don't know), but it's definitely not in every post-B&B score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,240 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 That score contains what I think are some of the blueprints for Scherzo for Motorcycle and Orchestra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hmmmm...Scherzo for Motorcycle and Orchestra is one of the greatest Indy cues ever, perhaps I should look into The Great Escape (I already have the Main Titles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Brausam 216 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I don't have the box with me, so I'm not completely sure. I just grabbed it becuase I saw a used copy for $5. It's the one that MGM records released I believe, with the dialogue preceeding some tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the one that MGM records released I believe, with the dialogue preceeding some tracks.There was a re-recording done by Bernstein and the RSNO in the late 90's, along with the Magnificent Seven, but they were both pulled due to legal issues, if my memory is correct. But it's just a recording of basically the same material that was issued for the film's original soundtrack album and eventually on the Ryko disc. The Ryko disc was re-issued by Varese Sarabande minus the dialogue tracks.However the masters to the complete score were found and Varese issued it thru their CD club in 2004 as a 2 disc set.http://www.varesesarabande.com/details.asp...0804%2D1029%2D2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Thanks indy4, it was an intense battle. I watched the item like a week ago and completely forgot about it. I got an e-mail telling me it was ending soon and I checked expecting to see it rise up to like $80.It was starting at $25 and had 0 bids with 2 hours remaining. I was like "Holy garbage!" I can actually win this. I waited the 2 hours. At the 30 minute mark 1 person bid. Nothing changed until 5 minutes remaining, when another guy came in. They battle it out adding a dollar at a time. I wait for 20 seconds left, enter my bid and... BAM! I win My like new (opened and listened to once) Dracula CD will be shipping tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Images arrived. I'm only on track three (Dogs, Ponies & Old Ruins). So far, this track is defenetly the highlight. I am fairly shocked, however, that the score sounds so good. I only really bought it for three reasons:1. The collector inside of me told me to get it.2. It was only 2,000 copies, so I figured it would get very pricey if I didn't get it now.3. It sounds like an incredibly unique score, even for a JW score, so I really had to.I did not expect to like it very much, but I'm finding it much more enjoyable than I originally thought. It's very creepy, very beautiful, and very strange. This, along with Little Miss Sunshine, is probably one of the most unique scores I own (Images may in fact be the most unique score).EDIT: God, I'm listening to Visitations, I'm really getting spooked! Awesome! And I like that moaning man in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I listened to it when I bought the official release, and it actually creeped me out so much I had to stop listening to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 It's definitely an infectious, pleasant score. Better than lots of Zimmer's blockbuster material, and I doubt most people (especially the ardent Zimmer-haters) would even recognize that it's his.

Richard Penna 3,752 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 This really is a superb score that has shown me a different side of Zimmer. The way he integrates Morricon's Once Upon...America theme is great, particularly in Three Musketeers. Really dynamic and feel-good. This is Zimmer meets Newman - indy4 (and Ray) - thanks so much for recommending this!And Koray - you're absolutely right. I urge every single person here who thinks Zimmer is... well, you know.. to listen to The Holiday right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delorean90 42 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I just listened to the samples at SAE for The Holiday, and it is interesting. I may need to hear more of it, though. Some of the electronic elements cast somewhat of a bubblegum/commercial veneer on the material that I thought maybe it could have done without. Perhaps I just need to hear the rest of it. I dunno. I hope this didn't mark the final end of the Meyers/Silvestri collaborations, though, as I really enjoyed the scores for Father of the Bride, Father of the Bride Part II, and The Parent Trap.

Morlock 11 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Magical Mystery Tour- The Beatles Probably the most eccentric Beatles album.

Genius_Gone_Insane 5 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I am absolutely shocked at how superb this score is!I am not a big fan of the movie, which I've only seen once in it's entirety, but I caught a second viewing of parts of it on TV a few days ago, so I had to buy the score.It has that sound that made ESB and ET so great.
