Soundtracks, Compilations, or other recently purchased Music

[Jay 37,263]

Package from SAE arrived today:

Hollywood '94, Robocop 2, Goldsmith's Chain Reaction & Poltergeist II (Deluxe), and Elfman's Article 99, Extreme Measure and To Die For.

All for a total of $43.90 thanks to their Varese sale.

Also came with my very first SEA/FSM magnet: It has Williams, Steiner, Newman, and Herrmann on it

[Demondm810 398]

Yeah, I'm somewhat shocked to see that they had those titles.

I couldn't believe it. they had a lot of odd things. Many of their Zimmer CDs were promos, with the gold writing all over it. They had a fair amount of Williams stuff as well, things I never expected to see there.

[Jay 37,263]

Hmmm, I just discovered that the To Die For OST only has 19 minutes of Elfman score, and I already have an 11 minute suite of it on Music For A Darkened Theater Volume 2. D'oh.

[Wojo 2,453]

Well since I missed out on The River by procrastinating, I figured I'd go ahead and buy the balance of the order before any of it disappeared, too.

THE EDGE (EXPANDED)

SPEED 2: CRUISE CONTROL

MR. ATLAS (1000 EDITION)

POLTERGEIST II: DELUXE EDITION

FIRST BLOOD (RAMBO I)

OMEN (EXPANDED EDITION)

That's right, two classic Jerrys I never had before, in legit or Napster.

[Koray Savas 2,251]

Received my FYC promo of Angela's Ashes.

I'm gonna place another order for The Edge and Speed 2 using a different card, in other words my brother is buying them.

[Charlie Brigden 7]

Elfman's Milk and Desplat's The Twilight Saga: New Moon from HMV, Intrada's RoboCop from forum ace scallenger via the 'bay.

[Jonesy 55]

Today I have received Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan (Expanded).

[Demondm810 398]

Received today:

John Debney: Iron Man 2

James Newton Howard: Salt (iTunes Digital Download)

I can't really get into to Iron Man 2 so much, I like many parts of Salt....but I dunno if I like the direction JNH is heading further and further into. Still wish it was a physical release. Seems like he phoned John Powell for some tips....

[Koray Savas 2,251]

Wow thanks for sharing about Salt! I thought it wasn't going to get a release.

[Demondm810 398]

Salt is pretty bad ass after giving some extended listening. From Track 13 on it's amazing, especially "I'm Going Home". Movie still looks shitty though.

The Fury arrived, although The River still hasn't. I'm a bit worried now, as SAE usually ships things out fairly quickly, and I ordered The Fury about 5 days after The River.

[Wojo 2,453]

I bought seven albums and my SAE order is still pending. I think they hate me.

[Jacob 0]

My shipping confirmation email arrived two days after the actual order did.

[Charlie Brigden 7]

From Amazon used: Licence To Kill, The World Is Not Enough and Quantum of Solace.

How the West Was Won (Rhino 2CD)

That's been on my list to get and I keep procrastinating. However part of me wonders if it might not get re-issued at some point by FSM, or one of the labels.

[Marian Schedenig 8,153]

The theme is cool, and I guess there's good stuff in it. But I rarely ever listen to it, and all I can recall is the theme.

[Joe Brausam 214]

I just put it on my Christmas list last year and got it that way. It's a decent album, but not something I listen to often.

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

Jaws Varese re-recording.

[Andy 4,071]

The theme is cool, and I guess there's good stuff in it. But I rarely ever listen to it, and all I can recall is the theme.

The theme is definitely the highlight. It's hard to listen objectively to the folk songs and not have them feel dated. But, wow, what a production. I don't know if I'd buy an FSM expansion now that I have this set. It was definitely worth the $10 I paid though.

Always found it interesting that Alan Silvestri used the main title for the western sequence in Romancing the Stone.

[indy4 155]

Apparently I never actually ordered The River...I just thought I did for some reason. So no $5 rarity for me . However, I discovered that I had $16 on a Barnes and Noble giftcard, so I went ahead and purchased Inception.

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

I'm still pleased about The River. What a nice little surprise. That was one of the rarer/demanding way too much $ gaps and suddenly there it is for 5 bucks. I wish SAE would suddenly turn up a bunch of used SpaceCamps or Paper Chase/Poseidon Adventures for 5 bucks.

[indy4 155]

Why do you still want Poseidon Adventure?

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

I want The Paper Chase!

[Wojo 2,453]

Apparently I never actually ordered The River...I just thought I did for some reason.

I do that with gasoline. I think I bought it, but I didn't, and then that light comes on, and oh shit, I'm calling AAA.

[indy4 155]

I want The Paper Chase!

Wow, I just realized that John Williams scored The Paper Chase! All this time I thought some other random composer did it.

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

Paper Chase is cool. I caught it on TV recently. One of those movies you get caught up in and cannot stop watching.

Taking advantage of magical $1 shipping at Movie Music, I have ordered the following:

Diamond Head/Gone with the Wave

Not With My Wife, You Don't!/Any Wednesday

Checkmate/Rhythm in Motion

Cinema Gala Vol. 1: Star Wars/Close Encounters of the Third Kind

[indy4 155]

Checkmate is fantastic. It's easily my favorite Johnny Williams score.

[Jay 37,263]

My girlfriend surprised me yesterday with the John Williams Denver Brass cd!

[Henry B 50]

Girlfriend?

[Ollie 1,059]

Some of us are even married Henry.

[Jay 37,263]

Yes, not the one that painted me the Hook painting... a new one.

[Naïve Old Fart 9,489]

Girlfriend?

What's wrong with having a girlfriend? I had a girlfriend, once. Jason, is this the same girlfriend that painted you the "Hook" picture?

[Andy 4,071]

Some of us are even married Henry.

[Ollie 1,059]

Having passed on these originally, I have no idea why, I found sealed copies of Bruce Broughton's George Washington Part II and the Eloise 2 disc set for a fair price.

Plus I have Predators, Batman, Krull and (hopefully next week) Spartacus shipping to me.

I'm on the fence about Predator, if it is Intrada's August 3rd release. I listened again to the Varese Cd and it sounds very good to my ears.

[Jay 37,263]

Why would you upgrade Krull from Supertracks to La La Land, but not upgrade Predator from Varese to Intrada?

[Henry B 50]

Some of us are even married Henry.

I know, Mark. You make this very, even uncomfortably clear at times. I just asked because Jay recently broke up with his girlfriend.

[Naïve Old Fart 9,489]

Yes, not the one that painted me the Hook painting... a new one.

Another one. Goodness, how many girlfriends have you got?!

I know, I just couldn't resist with that opening you left.

[Joe Brausam 214]

I was kind of hoping that Spartacus would end up being like the other recent club releases and ship almost a week early, but I guess that won't be the case.

[Jay 37,263]

???

From my experience, recent Varese Club releases have shipped LATE - I got my copies of Goonies and Star Trek WAYYYYyyyy after the "release date"

[Ollie 1,059]

No, lately they've been shipping the week prior to their actual shipping date. Now how Varese processes the orders they get is a mystery.

But I've been getting my orders quick.

[Wojo 2,453]

I only ever bought two albums straight from Varese -- Home Alone 2 and Star Trek -- and I didn't care how long they took to arrive.

[Ollie 1,059]

Since they switched from UPS to USPS, the shipping has improved quite a bit.

[Joe Brausam 214]

Since they switched from UPS to USPS, the shipping has improved quite a bit.

I spoke too soon! I got my Spartacus shipping notice just an hour ago! They're using priority mail for it, so I should get it by Monday.

[Jay 37,263]

Why would you upgrade Krull from Supertracks to La La Land, but not upgrade Predator from Varese to Intrada?

[Marian Schedenig 8,153]

Krull is (slightly) expanded, no?

[Jay 37,263]

No - the only "extra" track is an edit of material from the Main Title and End Credits.
