David Vincent 8 Posted May 24, 2002 Author Share Posted May 24, 2002 Do you talk about The Cowboys released by Varese Sarabande (I can try to get one and exchange it if you are interested) ?Or do you talk about The Cowboys bootleg ?This bootleg has been released from DVD source and is not a factory pressed release...

The Prick vs The DD 0 Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 Black Sunday.I desperately want this score on a complete CD with topquality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Potter 0 Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 I want everything by Mr. Williams that hasn't been released. On your list, I have the commercially released cds of all except Monsignor, so I think I'll vote for that one.~Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 AI, because of the quality of some of the unreleased music. The promo is a must get if only for the instrumental version of the Blue Fairy theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,504 Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 I voted SPACECAMP because I only have this as a CD-R and would like the original instead. To tell you the truth, I'm not interested in any of the other items you listed, because I'm perfectly satisifed with the commercial releases.

Director 1 Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 I voted for the Born On The Fourth Of July promo.

Director 1 Posted May 25, 2002 Share Posted May 25, 2002 Yeah, I hardly bid on any Johnny stuff. I already have mostly anything you can have relating to JW.

Guest Posted May 25, 2002 Share Posted May 25, 2002 I have the AI promo cd's, and of those listed in the poll, it would certainly be my first choice to own. i was shocked that the released soundtrack did not contain David's theme - the gorgeous piano melody. in my opinion, AI is John Williams' best work ever.

bruckhorn 105 Posted May 25, 2002 Share Posted May 25, 2002 I got a copy of a one disc boot of Born on the Fourth of July and it was quite the surprise when it gets to the end of the last track and suddenly there's Tom Cruise's voice screaming "Penis!" over and over again. Of course that's when my mother entered the room. I don't know who was more shocked. Yeah, I was thirty at the time, but there's just something things that Mom doesn't need to hear.So, if you get a boot of BOTFOJ, beware. It might be best to listen to it the first time with headphones.Bruckhorn Nothing, my CD player stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to stick one of those Parental Advisory stickers on the album cover - that would be a first for a JW soundtrack!Fellow Chris,First off, great name! Second off, since that is a bootleg, it doesn't have to have a parental advisory warning. Plus, how many kids (younger than say 18 or so) do you know looking for rare John Williams bootlegged expanded scores? And, those obscenities are in the movie. Cruise's character goes 'Nam after serving in 'Nam and yells the... um... obscenity to P-O his mom. It wouldn't work in Ozzy's house, but in that house, it worked.

ChrisAfonso 186 Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 I have the AI promo cd's, and of those listed in the poll, it would certainly be my first choice to own. i was shocked that the released soundtrack did not contain David's theme - the gorgeous piano melody. in my opinion, AI is John Williams' best work ever.Sorry, which theme do you refer to? (CD#, track#) I always thought that David's theme was the one in "Hide and Seek", and that one is on the OST.However, the A.I. promo is worth getting, if only for those brilliant moments like the Strauß quote in #5 "Rouge City", or the complete "The Moon Rising", or the orchestral Blue Fairy music at the end of disc 2, or this gorgeous oboe melody in CD1 #8:(click to listen)-Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 The Acciental Tourist(not that I care that much for that score)and the A.I. promo are the only ones I don't have an official pressed copy of,besides 2 of those crappy 60's "comedy" scores from FSM.K.M.Who last saw the A.I. promo set (pressed) selling for 450$US on e-bay,good luck getting one.

Guest Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 chris: i always thought david's theme is the piano music first heard when david is looking at the swinton photographs just after his arrival, or the same music played when hobby is looking at his photographs after David and Joe's escape from Rouge City. Im not sure what track this is on the 2 cd promo set because I renamed mine and lost the track numbers. john williams identified this theme as David's in an interview in Film Score Monthly which came out over the summer.

Jay 37,363 Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 To answer "Guest"'s question from page one, the first Hook boot (the one that had horrible sound but all the music) exists on CDr only.The second Hook boot (the Concorde release with good sound but is missing 2 of the end battle cues) is a pressed bootleg.-Jason, who has a pressed copy of the Concordge release but was never able to get ahold of the first bootleg.
