Faleel 5,359 Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 2 hours ago, Marian Schedenig said: Possibly, but compared to other Disney films, Robin Hood at least (I'm not that familiar with Aristocats) doesn't have a lot of prominent songs. I'd say Whistle Stop is very likely to be the most famous bit, and I wouldn't call that a song. Aside from that, if my childhood self, long before I knew about film music, is any indication, the royal march and fanfare, archery tournament, and perhaps subsequent battle, are easily the most memorable bits simply from watching the film. At least I think there's a considerable contrast in song/score balance when compared to the Menken scores - which *I* mostly buy because of the songs. I always have had the pizzicato statement of Oo-de-lally during the fortune-teller sequence stuck in my head.

Bespin 8,484 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I'll get Aladdin for sure, for now, I felt for these ones: Beauty, Poca and The Zimmer King. About the Hunchback, it's a movie I never saw... it's on my wishlist. For The Little Mermaid, I passed, as it seems the edit of the finale is a complete fail, so it's better to listen to the OST, even if the album seems to have been recorded "under the sea". 1977 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aladdin is my absolute #1 Alan Menken score of all time since childhood. Yeah, that's the rub... the track record does not bode well, but we can but hope. Beauty and the Beast and Hunchback were my grails from the classic Menken era, but Aladdin is terrific and it'll be great to have the whole thing. While I would, of course, buy an expanded release of Mulan in a heartbeat, the entire (I think) score (plus alternates) has been floating around for ages. I would rather this one went to Intrada as I don't really trust Disney not to screw it up in some magnificent way, plus I don't especially like the way they put almost no gap between every track. Sometimes you need that space... there's a couple of instances on BATB in particular where the lack of a gap between underscore and song is quite jarring.
