Ricard 2,245 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 I don't know, but for a bootleg I would pay 0 cents.More than that would be too much, IMHO.Ricard - Who doesn't give money to bootlegersRicard II - Who thinks that bootlegs should be for private use or trading, NOT for sale.

load3 0 Posted October 28, 2002 Author Share Posted October 28, 2002 how could I see that my CD is a bootleg?Or could the " Missouri Breaks / Monsignor" CD only be a bootleg because it was never a "real" CD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do no longer remember how much I paid for it, but I did pay more than a regular commercial CD that's for sure....how much did you pay for it anyway?BTW, I have number 352.

David Vincent 8 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Yes, it is a bootleg but it doesn't mean it is a self-made CD-R copy.The Monsignor / Missouri Breaks is a pressed CD.If you want to know about its value in the future, you can check my site.Since last week, I have included estimated prices for John Williams albums. This price is an average of the eBay auctions and will probably become more realistic in a near future.Personally, I have paid $37 when I bought it. It was my very first bootleg album and I think it was a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially Monsignor since The Missouri Breaks was released commercially as well.I know that I adore Monsignor, even more that TMB. Also, the sound quality of this homemade CD can't be beaten. It's so much better than most commercially available CD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

load3 0 Posted October 28, 2002 Author Share Posted October 28, 2002 to make it short (I'm in a hurry):I spent about 23 $ (to be exact: 23 Euros ) for my copy.Thanks for your answers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricard 2,245 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 I spent about 23 $ (to be exact: 23 Euros ) for my copy.That would be a very good price if it was an official release. But for something that has as much value as a CD-R (despite of it being "pressed") it's definitely a robbery.PS. Sorry if I offend anyone, but that's my opinion.

Lurker 5 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 I'm satisifed with my offical Ryko CD of The Missouri Breaks and my Casablanca LP of Monsignor.I'm guessing you bought the boot for Monsignor, right?Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Me too (although an official CD release of Monsignor wouldn't hurt... )i agree,some re-mastering is needed(especially for the chorus in "Gloria" ),and I bet there's a lot of unreleased music for this score too.K.M.Who never listened to the Missouri Breaks part of the boot.

mahler3 478 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Does anybody have information about people making such bootleg albums, the way they proceed ?Speak to Movie Boulevard in the UK as they're the master rip-off merchants!Apparently Douglass Fake has produced a few, namely the 'Young Sherlock Holmes' recording sessions 2-cd boot. So i'm told anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHerrera83 0 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Apparently Douglass Fake has produced a few, namely the 'Young Sherlock Holmes' recording sessions 2-cd boot. So i'm told anyway?Whoa!!!Please don't drag Douglass Fake's excellent name and company into this; Intrada is a legit business. The YSH 2-CD is NOT a boot; it is a legitimate promo release done in association with the composer (in this case, Bruce Broughton). Promos are financed by the composer or his/her agent to promote their music; sometimes a label like Intrada does the actual pressing and a few of them are sold to the public to help cover the costs. This was YSH's case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was YSH's case.I am talking about an unofficial bootleg release of the complete recording sessions on 2cd's some years back, not the Intrada promo which as you correctly state was endorsed by Broughton etc.Douglass Fake is an excellent producer and I have much respect for him, just stating what I have been told.

Chris 0 Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 I've got number 277 of the Monsignor/Missouri Breaks bootleg, paid $35 for it, and love it!! I still hope they eventually get round to releasing Monsignor officially though - it's a great score! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
