Batman: Mask Of The Phantasm comes to mind or anything by Shirley Walker. Or The Phantom Menace. And if we're counting non-score stuff - Kamen's Saxophone Concerto.    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 3:01 PM     By:   other tallguy   (Member) Wow. I actually get to say it first: Star Wars. Krull? I’m curious, why Krull? Awesome score, of course.    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 5:39 PM     By:   Thgil   (Member) Basic Instinct. I adore that score sooooo much.    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 6:14 PM     By:   Peter Greenhill   (Member) John Barry - Beat Girl    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 7:49 PM     By:   TheFamousEccles   (Member) I don't know that I'd want to "go back" and crash certain sessions as much for the scores themselves, but more for the experience of witnessing particular incidents or personalities. I'd love to attend the "Barry Lyndon" sessions if only to witness first-hand the famous "attempted strangling" of Kubrick by Rosenman. Any sessions conducted by Lionel Newman would be towards the top of the list, too - both to watch his conducting technique and rapier-sharp tongue at work. Additionally, it would have been interesting to attend the "Psycho" sessions, if only to witness the byplay between Herrmann and Hitchcock as he reached "The Murder." Another one came to mind earlier, but for the life of me, I can't remember what it was. If I end up recalling the score in question, I'll edit this post to reflect that. (It wasn't "Fantastic Voyage," though that would certainly rank high, also. I would have loved to have seen the musicians' faces as they looked over their parts for the first time.)    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 9:16 PM     By:   Advise & Consent   (Member) Another one came to mind earlier, but for the life of me, I can't remember what it was.

'The corridor' from Torn Curtain perhaps?    Posted:   May 7, 2014 - 9:20 PM     By:   ST-321   (Member) Star Wars. Empire Strikes Back would have been pretty fantastic too.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 1:23 AM     By:   ian642002   (Member) Goldsmith's Chinatown sessions. (1) to see genius at work, and (2) to observe whether it was true Jack Nicholson was in attendance, handing out glasses of whisky and partying.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 1:43 AM     By:   Atham   (Member) I would love to have been there when they recorded "The Enterprise" from ST:TMP in 79! Heck, any cue from that magnificent score! Also "Desert Chase" from Raiders of the Lost Ark. oh yeah!    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 3:59 AM     By:   John-73   (Member) Star Wars    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 4:05 AM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) Gotta go with "Star Wars". (As if I'd say anything else....)    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 4:08 AM     By:   P.Tsakiris   (Member) Alex North's Spartacus and Cleopatra. Many more from Tiomkin; Fall of the Roman Empire, 55 Days at Peking, Alamo, The High And the Mighty. Newman's How the West Was Won; Horner's Titanic, and Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and Last Crusade by Williams.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 4:19 AM     By:   Jehannum   (Member) Planet of the Apes. Would love to see that ape mask.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 5:36 AM     By:   Timmer   (Member) Wow! I can't believe no one has mentioned JAWS!!? ( sarcastic mode on ) As mentioned further above I'd also go for On Her Majesty's Secret Service. I'd love to see that moog set up and the session(s) with the legendary Louis Armstrong. I'd also like to have seen Tom Jones near fainting while holding the end notes of Thunderball.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 5:55 AM     By:   TPC   (Member) Definitely Star Wars or Raiders of the Lost Ark for me. As a former trombone player, I would give quite a bit to be able to sit with the brass for either "Battle of Yavin" or "Desert Chase." That would be incredible.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 6:01 AM     By:   Francis   (Member) Howard Shore's King Kong.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 3:14 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) ALIEN by Jerry, with Lionel conducting. I still can't get over the sounds that orchestra produced. I hate to break the "bad' news but.............. most of those sounds were created in the mix - i.e. JG did ALOT of processing (echo, tape manipulation, etc.) I would love to have been at THE EXORCIST session to see Friedkin "Go "Bale" on Lalo ahahahhaha!!!!!!!!!!!! b    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 3:20 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) The CBS-TV sessions from the 1960's and 1970's, for sure. I would have loved to see Mort Stevens conduct some of my favorite HAWAII FIVE-0 scores and TV Movies, or even Bruce Broughton conducting some of his early CBS-TV work. For now, I will GLADLY settle for ANY of this stuff coming out on a CD release...:-) http://www.filmmusicsociety.org/news_events/features/images/mortconductingH5-0.jpg Got something for you! A little over a month ago an episode of a rare series, "Code Red", was uploaded to Youtube. This episode was scored by Stevens: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZYezY4s1A4    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 4:25 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) Hearing one of those "Goldsmith moments" where he created a wonderful, unique sound used nowhere else in the score. Oh... wait... Never mind.    Posted:   May 8, 2014 - 4:55 PM     By:   Francis   (Member) To be honest I have mixed feelings in attending a recording session; as a film fan foremost, I wouldn't enjoy seeing a movie for the first time when it's still being worked on. I know such a session is all about the music, but had I gone to a Goldsmith Alien recording session or a Trevor Jones' Dark City, it would have robbed me of experiencing that footage and music in its proper context and finished format! Anyone feel the same about this? If you give me a time machine I would happily go back and check out the sessions to these movies lol.     General Discussion: If you could've crashed a session.    << < 1 2 3 4  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4
