Bespin 8,483 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I love Andrew Collins's playlists he makes for his saturday's broadcast at Classic FM. I reproduce some of them in Spotify (because they are too idiot to do it themselves it appears!). I try whenever it's possible to chose the exact versions for each track, but, rarely, very rarely, it's not always possible because Spotify don't always have everything. Two weeks ago, Collins ended a series of 5 shows about "Iconic Film Scores". So here they are! Enjoy (and follow me!)

Naïve Old Fart 9,534 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 LADIES IN LAVENDER gets a lot of airplay, on Classic F.M. The COPP recording of THE TOWERING INFERNO, is, probably, the best version I've heard. It's dynamic, and open, and it's played well.

Bespin 8,483 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Those playlists are great, geez, plz show that you listen other composers than just Williams, Goldsmith and Horner. Mercy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercy! It's also useful to listen to things that are not just over-familiar 'evergreens', like 90% of the titles on those playlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,483 Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Here's the latest one, enjoy! I would not be surprised if this guy Collins, would actually be in this forum with us ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,483 Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 The latest playlist seems to be a good recap of some things from the last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miz 139 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Do any Andrew Collins fans know why he left Classic FM? I was sad to hear Jonathan Ross presenting instead, he doesn't bring half the charisma or knowledge. And once I realised, Andrew's last show was no longer available to listen again. On top of the move from 5-7pm slot to the 7-9pm slot (swap cooking dinner time for baby bedtime and my own vegging infront of the TV), this show is now as unattractive as it was before Collins came on.

Bespin 8,483 Posted June 3, 2023 Author Share Posted June 3, 2023 I don't know the new guy, but his playlists are shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,534 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Andrew Collins, for all his faults, does, at least know film. Jonathan Woss is a fan, and he speaks from a fan's perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
