Kendal_Ozzel 36 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Got BTTF today (YAY), as well as another copy of Wrath of Khan as a Christmas gift for a friend. Also got The Princess and the Frog. Think I'm gonna hold off listening to it until I see the film. But something funny about it: the inner plastic piece of the case is black, not clear like most are today—but the back insert is designed for a clear case. Gotta wonder if it was just a manufacturing error, or some kind of last minute decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I bought Dracula for $45 on Amazon. I think that's the most I've ever spent on a single CD. Before this it was Jaws 2 for $40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,493 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I could only see myself paying that much for a CD (or several CDs) if it was something I really desired and I was basically forced to pay such a ludicrous amount. Like, say, Hook the complete and glorious recording sessions from the hands of a very desperate/bankrupt Steven Spielberg. So basically an insane circumstance that would never occur. The Fury is a score I like, but I didn't like it enough to buy the limited edition CD set when it was available for a reasonable price. Now that the time has passed, I am unwilling to spend much more than the original value for it. It's just not that important to me. I'm lucky to own other supposed rare scores that demand higher values such as Jaws 2, Dracula and the Home Alone 2 Deluxe Edition. But I bought those when they were available because I really wanted them. Jaws 2 and Dracula are from record stores.Anyway, Summon The Heroes arrived today. $0.99 on eBay. Eh, it's okay so far. The performances haven't been particularly inspiring. The recording is a bit flat? I dislike how Williams replaced the original intro to his Olympic Fanfare with Bugler's Dream. If I wanted to listen to Bugler's Dream, John, I would do so. I want to hear that awesome intro of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I figured $81 was the cheapest I was ever going to find it, so I took the plunge. Although now I'm getting somewhat nervous because the member I bought it from has yet to respond to my payment fulfillment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summon the Heroes itself is probably Williams' best Olympic piece, with some awesome counterpoint writing in the march section. And Parade of the Charioteers puts Rozsa's own recording to shame.

Quintus 5,399 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Can someone PLEASE do me a huge favour, I'll be eternally grateful I've just attempted to purchase an mp3 from Amazon USA, but I was frustratingly informed by the site that the track I wanted is basically outside of their licensing rights - they're unable to provide the mp3 to the UK. The track in question is a superb instrumental of I Dreamed a Dream by JW and the Boston Pops. After searching high and low for it I am absolutely certain that it is unavailable for purchase in the UK, as an mp3 - indeed the whole album which the track is taken from is not available in mp3 format at all in the UK, annoyingly so, since there are actually a few good tracks on it I'd like.Music of the Night: Pops on Broadway 1990So my begging question is will someone here who resides in the USA be willing to purchase the track for me? As thanks, I shall provide in return any two tracks from iTunes or Amazon. Either that or supply iTunes credits.Will someone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,493 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I absolutely love that recording of his Olympic Fanfare, even with Bugler's Theme at the beginning. The trombones in that final chord...amazing.It's pretty damn good, actually. Though I'm partial to the one on By Request with that original intro, which is one of JW's most badass moments. The versions with Bugler's Dream at the start are basically neutered. The standout track of this CD is Olympic Spirit. Wow!The Chariots of Fire theme was disappointing. It's much better on the Aisle Seat album, which I consider JW's best re-recorded piece by another composer. Overall the Summon The Heroes CD is OKAY. Certainly worth the few bucks I paid for it. My favorite material is undoubtedly the three JW-composed tracks, although I already had Summon The Heroes on the superior American Journey CD and the Olympic Fanfare on that By Request Boston Pops CD. Worth it just for the Olympic Spirit? Hell yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
