Ollie 1,059 Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 The reason Home Alone 2 got a release is due to the fact that Varese has access to the Fox studio vaults and the rights to the score were available. Plus they found some errors with the original release and since it was available they went ahead and released it.I would guess that these are the composers you might see a release from this club batch:Conti, Bernstein, North, Waxman, Friedhofer, Young, Goldsmith or Silvestri. They might sneak a Williams in with something older but look at the studios that hold the rights to some of his unreleased works.Frankly I would love an expanded legit release of Gremlins and Gremlins 2.

There's no reason for a re-recording and it's not gonna happen anytime in my life.As far as Conan goes, there was a rumor floating around that someone was going to release a complete, remastered version of Conan The Destroyer but Poledouris' death put it on hold for awhile.And that's only the RUMOR that was floating around.

Lurker 5 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I would love to see Varese re-issue the Kojian "Star Wars Trilogy" album as an SA-CD. Throw in Gerhardt's Empire album while they're at it. Both were Soundstream digital recordings and exceed the current CD standard but could be heard in their full glory on the SA-CD format.Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Somebody posted a YouTube video that showed how JW binds and keeps all his scores. Because of this, doesn't that mean any JW score is availible? I mean, obviously they would still need the rights to record and release it, but it doesn't matter if the master tapes are lost or destroyed, because JW still has all the scores written out, right?

Matilda sounds extremely nice.I already have two re-recordings of Viva Zapata!

Whats wrong with throwing in a Williams, or Goldsmith here and there?I know, I know, they would if they could.I'm not blaming Varese for nothing. I am good friends with some of the head honchos there... but still!!!And, being a good geek, I ordered them all.So, don't be putting words in my mouth. I was a little excited, but not as much as I was thinking I would be.With 7 discs planned, I thought we would have 6 great ones and 1 2 cd unbeliveably outstanding release.

fommes 153 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 The titles are quite good to great, but I don't have any affinity with these scores, and I don't have any more money for CDs anyhow, so I won't be getting any.I understand why everyone is getting annoyed though, it's always Bernstein, Conti, North, etc. Look, I also agree that you can't go wrong with Bernstein and North (though Conti...), and I'm not mad at Varèse at all like all those madmen at the FSM board who are madder than Mad Jack McMad who won last year's Madman competition or so, but it would also be great if Varèse ventured into some variety. Goldsmith and especially Williams (it's been a while...) would be great, but I'm more talking about other composers. Elfman? Arnold? Silvestri? Another Horner? I know these are 'recent' composers, but once in a while, why not. And we've got the Golden and Silver Age covered by FSM I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
