Richard Penna 3,689 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Sounds like Townson's departure from Varese will be good for us in the long run. Even if there have been some issues with the most recent club releases, I'd rather have a team with a hunger to get scores out, than someone who only wants to associate themselves with certain scores. I wonder whether Townson snapped up all the 90s scores he could back in the day, regardless of whether he thought they were any good, then when times allow for expansions, he tries to distance himself from scores he doesn't like?

Popular Post publicist 4,643 Posted June 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2020 Quote BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS A triple threat of happenings coming this Friday. Firstly, a CD Club drop is ready to go, so start your salivating. Secondly, we will be launching our annual Spring Cleaning sale on the same day, featuring dozens of titles down to their very last manufactured copies. Lastly, but most importantly for customers outside of North America, we are very excited to be opening our new International Exclusives e-shop! While it won’t have the depth of catalog or any wide release titles, it will carry all our best-selling CD Club and Limited Edition titles, as well as all new Club and Limited titles moving forward. Shipped out of the U.K., it will provide substantial savings in postage costs and shipping times for European customers.

Holko 9,526 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Customs are for protecting the local businesses, tell me which European labels are direct competitors of Varese and are releasing expanded editions of their own of the same scores. It's bullshit. LLL and Intrada are not as expensive because they have a deal with outside reseller stores, they get the stock wholesale for a lower price so they can sell it for a lower price.

Yavar Moradi 2,599 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 1 hour ago, publicist said: Yeah, we're out of Goldsmiths. Not even close! Love Field has a central action cue (in the film) and a hell of a lot of other music (not in the film or on the original 28 minute album) still unreleased. I think an expansion of that would likely be a revelation. Speaking of more classic scores, The Other and both Flint scores are *over half unreleased*! Now we do have the Twilight Time isolated score tracks which double the time and give us an idea of all the other wonderful music that hasn't been put out on CD...but all three of these feature film micro-edits and such and even they are not the complete scores. The Mephisto Waltz is missing at least three cues as well as missing overlays and generally having an inaccurate mix on the previous Varese release. This is a masterpiece that needs a definitive edition. Medicine Man and City Hall are only missing 12-15 minutes of music, but I love both scores and want every note. Rudy and The 13th Warrior are generally beloved and even if the ~20 minutes of unreleased music is just more variations on the same material, I think it's still perfectly valid to want them...this is Goldsmith we are talking about, and he almost always did *something* new with each variation. Hollow Man and Along Came a Spider are not favorites of mine at all but they're missing a lot more music and I know many people do want them. And even though there are boots of varying quality, we *obviously* need definitive official editions of both Matinee and Looney Tunes: Back in Action (complete with the John Debney finale cues...so that there IS a finale to the score even if it doesn't quite reach Goldsmith levels). C'mon. 1 hour ago, Jay said: Many Goldsmith fans still want Timeline and Looney Tunes Back In Action I guess Oh yeah...Timeline too! (Even though the boot sounds great...gimme officially licensed, all the way!) Oh yeah and "honorary Dante score" Mom and Dad Save the World has some great unreleased music (and the boot is TERRIBLE sounding). How could I forget? (So many people seem to.) Yavar P.S. you're the only one bringing up Criminal Law, publicist...even though I don't think that score deserves the hatred it gets it's not remotely one of my favorites, and I think the existing album is the complete score or very very close to it.

Virtually the only one i would add something to would be 'The Other', but that never had an album. Well, I'd just ask you to speak for yourself then, rather than declaring collectively "we're out of Goldsmiths" which isn't remotely true. Horner's Willow was an early favorite of mine when I would young, but at this point I consider it merely "good" (I'll take Krull almost any day), and an expansion of it a much lower priority than at least a third of the Goldsmith scores Varese still controls. Yet it's your #1 most wanted expansion at this point, despite the fact that we already got a very generous 73 minute album! Much of the unreleased music from Willow is variations on that same material (which itself was heavily indebted to a piece of folk music and several concert hall composers, of course). I just don't understand why that music, to you, is "must have" material while you dismiss the unreleased 20 minutes of music from say, The 13th Warrior which is a similar situation IMO. And 13th Warrior is one of the lucky ones, that got an original Varese release well over 30 minutes long. Many of these others like Love Field have had UNDER 30 minutes released!
