Richard Penna 3,675 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Just spent a few hours between Amazon marketplace, Ebay, Discogs, and anywhere else I could think of, finding all the Game of Thrones albums on CD. The only one I didn't get on disc was season 3 as it's ridiculously expensive for some reason. However, when paying an average of £5-6 per album I only really need to find value in a handful of tracks to make a purchase worthwhile. Normally I'd just buy the digital albums like I do for pretty much every contemporary score, but in this case CDs are actually cheaper in almost every case.

Bespin 8,480 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Ya know, people laugh at my discography since so many years... but there is not one false attributed John Williams album on my disco. If it’s not in the disco, then it’s not the right John Williams you’re researching. And well there are so much rare entries in the disco that no one cares about except @Miguel Andrade, @Junion and me! Like this album: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,480 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The layout (which is very 2000ish, I must admit) or the way I separated the disco into "Disco as a performer" and "Disco as a composer"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,033 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The titles of the menu options could be more spot on. I'd arrange it something like this: Discography (on main menu) John Williams as performer (conductor or pianist) Performances by others Lists of works (on main menu) Original compositions Arrangements and orchestrations I don't mind the 2000s look of the site.

If the latest 3 disc release of the Superman score would have existed at that time, I would not have bought this one. I was so happy to have this because we all thought the original source and the music sheets were lost forever. I think, they actually reconstructed the music sheets from listening to the old OST, Williams' sketches and the adaptations from Superman II and III as far as I remember. So, this recording was made to fill preserve the score in an appropriate recording. Now this has become kind of obsolete, but still it is a nice remembrance.
