BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 These are the clues for the next batch of FSM releases:"Coming Next Month: For scheduling reasons, two Silver Age titles: two swinging sixties LPs on one CD and a WWII favorite from the 1970’s."One of the LP reissues could very well be the long rumoured release of William's jazzy score for the 60's TV series Checkmate.

robthehand 3 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 That would fit with the rumour earlier this year.EDIT: See this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Hmm could the WWII film be Force 10 From Navarone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Force 10 From Navarone is hardly considered a favorite.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robthehand 3 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I hope the other one's not one I want - I need to save up for those new Varese CDs. :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 Rumour has it that the next batch of Varese CD's is not going to come out before may. I know that's hardly a guarantee but varese seems to have other priorities right now with their busy release schedule for spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 What WWII film could they be talking about that's a favorite?I've seen a few people ask LK about Force 10.Maybe they are going to release the original tracks to Midway or McArthur might get a re-release. Wishful thinking would be a legit expanded 1941.I know there are plenty of War films to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 It must be a score which does not suffer from a difficult licencing situation which pretty much cancels out 1941 since the OST is still in print on varese and otherwise the rights would belong to Universal which makes it pretty much impossible for FSM to release it. Midway is another universal title and therefore hard to do for them.Force 10 from Navarone might be possible but Lukas kendall stated one year ago that we should "better not hold our breath for this one". That situation could have changed by now.He also stated recently that they are going to release a title that they have been working on for the past 7 years.Personally i would love to see force 10 released because i liked the score very much when i watched the film. Another possibility is Elmer Bernstein's Canon for Cordoba (1970). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I'm a Williams fan and Checkmate?...who cares.They should try to be more persuasive to GET the "difficult" licencing rights to what we all want(Family Plot,Black sunday...ect...)K.M.

BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 4, 2006 Author Share Posted February 4, 2006 You are refering to titles owned by studios like Paramount that are simply not negotiating about anything. If you want to express your frustation towards anyone then to their music executives. Sadly, there is no way to do that (what a coincidence) and the labels seem to get all the rant from fans... for releasing the great music that they can get their hands on.

BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 4, 2006 Author Share Posted February 4, 2006 That's another universal owned title which sadly means: no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's been explained to death that those scores aren't in the near future.Granted suprises happen but I wouldn't hold my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixie_twinkle 48 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Well I for one think Checkmate is a nice score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Share Posted February 16, 2006 According to ron goodwin's site http://www.rongoodwin.co.uk/news.htm, the WW2 score will be Force 10 from Navarone.

BigMacGyver 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Share Posted February 16, 2006 Now here comes the best part:The LP double header which includes the Williams score is not limited and available at only $16,95!But the real winner is certainly Force 10. The score is dynamite and they even did a vibrant stereo sound! Can't wait to get this thing in my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
