BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Now, I understand there are many levels of dislike. You might dislike a score most relative to something else, or you might not really like a score but feel that it has its saving graces. Or you might just hate the guts out of it. So the question is, which 3 Williams scores you own do you dislike enough to trade them in for the following 3 albums...1. Millennium by Backstreet Boys2. Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy by Elton John3. Spaced Out - The Very Best of William Shatner and Leonard NimoyIts time to confess!!

Bryant Burnette 655 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 John Goldfarb, Please Come Home, nothing, and nothing.Ah, I'm full of s--t: I wouldn't trade even Goldfarb. Because then I'd just have to buy it again so I'd still have it. I listen to it every time I go through my Williams collection, dilligently, humbly; and I'm always happy for it to end.

indy4 155 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I wouldn't trade any for those. But these are my least favorite JW CDs:1. War of the Worlds2. Midway3. SabrinaBut all of these soundtracks have at least a couple tracks I enjoy.Oh, and BTW, I have that Spaced Out CD. I don't know what Shatner was thinking, because I don't think he ever sing in the album. Nimoy isn't that bad. I'm a huge fan of his version of "Both Sides Now," "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins," and "Highly Illogical." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryant Burnette 655 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Ah, come on! How could you guys hate The Poseidon Adventure?It isn't one of my favorites, but that's hardly saying anything negative. I think I prefer it to The Towering Inferno, in fact; it's really pretty darn good.However, I've learned that on this board, there is no JW score great enough that there isn't going to be somebody to speak out against it.And I like The River a lot, too, but oddly, it seems to be one of his scores that gets the least attention. I think this is the first time I've even seen it mentioned here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Fitzwilly, Sleepers and Stepmom.Sleepers and Stepmom are a damn fine pieces of music... Stepmom always gets a drubbing around here, perhaps because it's the latest (and perhaps final) "minor" work in Williams's canon. But in the context of my collection I find it indispensable. Sleepers and Fitzwilly are good, too, but I don't listen to them often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I don't get the hatred for Stepmom in a word its lovely.There was a time when I'd've been mightily curious about what Patrick Doyle could've done with the picture, but in light of his 21st century output -- even his relatively strong Potter score was a disappointment -- I think I'm satisfied enough with the way things turned out (even if Doyle's not). Hearing "The Days Between" for the first time on Williams's Greatest Hits album was a revelation -- and it joins "The Early Days/Massapequa 1957" (Born on the Fourth of July) and "Where Dreams Are Born" (A.I.) as the three JW cues so far that have absolutely floored me with their beauty upon the first listen.
