[King Mark 3,626]

I would go for some of the OOP titles like Raiders and some Varese stuff then,because they will be incrinsingly harder to find.

Edag88....First of all : Close Encounters (both editions are nice) .I also dont see Jurassic Park on your list. Raiders of the lost ark goes without saying (i thought i'd save Justin from fainting). E.T (both editions are nice to have if you can get). And as you asked for only 5, i'll finish up with Jaws (expanded one is best, but all are nice editions). So you shopping list is as follows :

Close Encounters (Make the expanded a priority first of all)

Jurassic Park (increasingly hard to find, so snap it up)

Raiders of the lost ark expanded (also quite rare)

E.T (both editions are worth getting as they are quite different)

Jaws (all editions are nice)

NP : Floating office (Star trek motion picture)

Yes,what Melange says

NP : Floating office (Star trek motion picture)

One of the best shore cues Goldsmith ever penned IMO,somewhat re-used in Congo for the satellite music

Sorry to clutter up your thread Edga. Yes its such a beautiful little gem that one Mark. The whole score is dotted with little nuggets of sheer musical mastery. That's why i love it so

[Lurker 5]

Nice to see that you were finally able to open your mail, Melange.

I'd love to discuss this score with you, but I never see you on-line anymore.

Thanks, when I ment top 5, I was talking about not EVERYTHING. Just the strongly reccomended ones. More than 5 is fine just not EVERYTHING.

Sorry, I posted all those CD's just to inject a little humor.

Seriously I would recommend these 5 that are in print and should be easy to find:

Jane Eyre

Jaws - MCA original or 25th Anniversary Edition (stay away from the McNeely re-recording from Varese)

Jurassic Park

CE3K Special Edition

A.I.

And, has your opinion changed?

Stefancos- who likes the AOTC score a lot, but wishes it was better.

[SilverTrumpet 638]

Can someone tell me about AI? I've never heard anything from it or seen the movie.....

[King Mark 3,626]

And you can buy the 1992 Japanese issue of Spacecamp at Screen Archive Entertainement...

for 250$U.S.

K.M.Wondering if he should sell his copy

K.K.M.who thinks stefancos was unwise to give away his copy.

[Justin 2]

I'd snatch up a copy of Raiders ASAP. It's probably the most rare (other than stuff like SpaceCamp which I assume you aren't going to fork over $250 for) next I'd get CEOT3K. Followed by JP unless I am blind and don't see it on your list.

Justin -

[King Mark 3,626]
