Thor 7,495 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 15 hours ago, lairdo said: Update - and apologies if this has been found already. I went to the US Copyright Office database. Evening at Pops: T.V. Theme is listed as being created in 1981. So, it seems that is the date we should probably use to list it. https://cocatalog.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?v1=18&ti=1,18&Search_Arg=evening at pops&Search_Code=TALL&CNT=25&PID=9k6ZLAWqd8b9h7OZyMDJ9X4SAL&SEQ=20190324201814&SID=1 Oh, that's great. Thanks for checking! It makes sense that he composed it right after he took over the Pops. I'll have to redo my chronology now, as I always thought his 1985 return to episodic television was the first time since 1968. Now I'll have to narrow in the window a little bit.

Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Not sure if Williams ever okayed the medley. There were way too many of those being released for him to check personaly. Anyway, here's the original "Evening at Pops" theme: lairdo and Omen II 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuartalHarmony 543 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I'm trying to write some notes for my copy of By Request... and I'd like to have the recording dates for the re-released tracks. Can anyone who has access to any of the original CDs/LPs of Pops Around the World, Pops in Space, Pops on the March, Aisle Seat or Out of this World either post the recording dates or confirm that no such information is given? I've checked discogs.com but they only have the year of release, not the recording date. On Philips Classics of that vintage, the recording date was usually given as a month and year at the bottom of the back cover (e.g. "Recorded Boston, 11/1983").

Bespin 8,480 Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Great work, for me it always was very important when I started my Discography, to include comprehensive stuff like notes about "Previously unreleased" material and "re-recordings" album. Many people on this forum helped me (Lairdo, Miguel, Stempel, Jay, even Thor at some point!) Having all the albums in one page allows to search using such keywords as "Previously unreleased" and "re-recording". It helped me to build my CD collection of John Williams and I hope it will help any new fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuartalHarmony 543 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Thanks Bespin - that must have been a lot of work. I will be looking at this when deciding what to buy next... At the risk of adding to your workload, would it be possible to add a note to the releases that consist entirely of previously released material? For example, I've been looking at Star Wars - The Best Of Space Music from 1990 and I assume it's just a rehash of the stuff he previously recorded in the 80s with the Boston Pops, but it'd be helpful if your discography confirmed one way or the other. Same goes for Space-Taculars and Space and Time from 1995. Thanks, Mark Bespin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,352 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 All those Philips compilations are 100% just re-releasing material from the original run of albums. The thread I linked you to showcases the only albums with new material; anything else is a compilation of existing tracks - except of course for By Request, which is the only hybrid of old tracks and premiere tracks. For that specific album Star Wars Main Theme 5:38 = from Pops in Space Princess Leia 4:06 = from Pops in Space The Asteroid Field 4:15 = from Pops in Space Yoda's Theme 3:21 = from Pops in Space The Imperial March 3:07 = from Pops in Space Parade Of The Ewoks 3:30 = from Out of This World Luke & Leia 4:25 = from Out of This World Jabba The Hutt 3:32 = from Out of This World The Forest Battle 4:03 = from Out of This World Superman March 4:27 = from Pops in Space Superman Love Theme 4:49 = from Pops in Space E.T. Adventures On Earth 9:12 = from Out of This World The Flying Theme 3:43 = from Aisle Seat Close Encounters Of The Third Kind Suite 10:09 = from Pops in Space QuartalHarmony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junion 107 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Bespin, I am collector of John Williams records and a big fan of your website! Actually, it`s amazing to see how many albums are connected to maestro John Williams. It must have been a lot work to add them! Therefore, I would like to support you and will let you know another albums in the near future. Here is the first one: Artist: Carmen McRae Album: Carmen For Cool Ones Featuring John T. Williams (piano) on tracks "Any old time", "What`s new?", "Without a word of warning", "The night we call it a day"; Decca DL 8738 Recorded in Los Angeles, December 5, 16, 1957 and April 21, 1958 Released in 1958 Reissued in 2012, Fresh Sound Records Bespin and rough cut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
