And our other release - not a soundtrack, but most of the songs are theater-related and should be of any interest at all - all the songs are by ME  Read about it below.
SANDY BAINUM – IT MIGHT BE FUN
Two Roads sounds GREAT. I can't believe I still haven't ordered the sheet music (so I can record my own uke version).
EDIT: Okay, the rest of the samples sound pretty great, too...
This, of course, makes me deliriously happy. This album was so much fun to do - to have Lanny Meyers at the top of his game, finding the heart and soul of these songs as if they were his own - it was just magical in the studio. The songs on this album span almost my entire life from teen to now - from when I first began writing in 1963 to this year.

The dramatic passages sound very nice.

For anyone who just looks at these threads and doesn't bother to actually listen to the audio samples, I'd really recommend it with this one. This is classic Grusin during his absolutely best period and just prior to Tootsie, I think.
Post TOOTSIE by 2 years.

Tootsie was 82? I just don't remember it being that early, but I guess it was.

Rewatching the film I had forgotten how little music there in the first 40 minutes of the film. Aside from the use of "Mountain Dance" in the Main Title, there isn't really underscore for the next 30 or so minutes.
It's a real treat that Bruce was able to release this score with all the unused underscore. It might be interesting to see how the original music fits in the film.
Can't wait for the CD.
James
The funny thing about Mountain Dance in the film - I don't think it works nearly as well as what he actually wrote. Go know.

No Mountain Dance on our CD - just the score as Grusin originally wrote it.
Ah that's sad news. Whilst other CDs often cram in every unnecessary creek and flutter ever recorded for something, this CD doesn't have the track I have been looking for so long. It would have been nice to have had it all bundled on one release ("Take two bottles into the shower? Not me, I just want to wash and go").
What's the reason for leaving it of? Rights issues or a fundamental decision to "keep it pure"?
D.S.
All of the above. And Mountain Dance is readily available in many places.

Something tells me this is going fast? & if so is MY BODYGUARD up next for you Bruce?
I'm also wondering how fast FALLING IN LOVE is selling - are you nearly sold out, Bruce, or is there a chance this will still be around for a few weeks?
We have about 150 left - so should be here at least another week or two. BTW, it should be shipping tomorrow or Wednesday.
