Well, if the licensing can ever be worked out for TKaM, at least we know from Roger that Intrada already spent a lot of money on restoring the tapes and all...at least I'm pretty sure he said that.
And similarly I think MV said LLL had spent a lot of money restoring (and I think even doing package design for) Tiomkin's Old Man and the Sea before some licensing issue came up and made them cancel it.

Here are the Intrada-related wants I posted over on their board. I'll have to think a bit more on what I want from the other labels:
COLUMBO! Here's how the complete Season 1 scores could fit on a single two disc set:
viewtopic.php?f=13&t=3369&p=69818&hilit=columbo#p69818
More McNeely TinkerBell scores, especially The Lost Treasure (2nd and best)! I had given up hope because according to Roger the first didn't sell all that well, except Joel McNeely apparently said Intrada was doing another one after all...maybe sales picked up like they did for LLL's Star Trek TNG Vol. 1 which was initially a slow seller but then found the Trek audience.
Many more older Disney scores...especially William Alwyn's Swiss Family Robinson, Clifton Parker's Treasure Island and Robin Hood, and maybe music from the 50s Zorro TV show? Oh, and Ron Goodwin, but I know Intrada's already got their sights on his stuff for the studio.
Late 80s/early 90s Disney TV animation scoring, in particular: Carl Johnson's Gargoyles (a veteran of Batman: TAS, he created some amazing orchestral music for this epic series). Ron Jones's DuckTales (because everything he does is great).
Disney Theme Park score releases...think of all that amazing Broughton, not even to mention all the other great film composers who've done stuff for them. And as a Goldsmith completest, I would hope that *all* the music he recorded for Soarin' Over California would be included on such an album (the 4.5 minute ride score has been released on compilations, but not his music for the orientation film and his music for waiting in line, plus any alternates he may have recorded).
Which brings me to, of course, expanded Goldsmith scores! Many of these Intrada and probably only Intrada can do: Warlock, The Ghost and the Darkness, Powder, The Last Castle, The Mummy, Mulan (though probably Disney will want to hold onto this for their new Legacy Collection series?), The Lonely Guy (the last Goldsmith score available on LP only), The Secret of NIMH, MacArthur, High Velocity (my favorite little-appreciated Goldsmith score), The Don Is Dead, The Trouble With Angels... and complete versions of these Fox scores, from which then-salvageable material had been included on the Varese Goldsmith box but which, with current technology (witness Krizterland's Rio Conchos or Intrada's Shock Treatment), might be doable in better/more complete form: The Chairman, Take Her She's Mine, S*P*Y*S (yes I love it and I'd love to have the John Scott score with it), A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and Anna and the King (hopefully including everything Goldsmith wrote but also other composers' contributions to the series). And of course I hope people still are on the lookout for the missing Damnation Alley elements, or at the very least could re-create them for a release of that very deserving score.
I know -- I'm not asking for much, am I?

Not much, I only bought two soundtracks this year. Luckily one of them was right at top of my little list, The Flint albums, & they sound great!
My small list:
23 Paces To Baker Street - Leigh Harline
White Feather - Hugo Friedhofer
The Great Race original tracks - Henry Mancini
The three Rozsa Conducts Rozsa albums
Dracula - John Williams, if the original tracks are missing, a re-mastered album will do.
Ulzana's Raid - Frank DeVole
I'll Never Forget What's 'isname - Francis Lai, album.
Harper - Johnny Mandel, original or album, whatever tapes they can find.
The Towering Inferno - John Williams, re-mastered re-release.
Judge Dredd - Alan Silvestri - I love the album, but would like the original tracks as well.
...& a few more. More than I thought really. I'll probably be lucky if I get one of those next year. I could afford to buy a couple of soundtracks a month, but I'm not going back to buying stuff I don't really want.

Ok, I'm finally gonna blort out one of my pet peeves.
The Holy Grail is SINGULAR - there can't be multiple holy grails, that's just silly! It's like saying I've got a splinter from the OTHER true cross! - There's only the one.
That said, and since The List of Adrian Messenger came out this year, I have only one holy grail left. Billy Goldenberg's Columbo.
Wait - only ONE holy grail left? Even I'm doing it!

One-by-one, our beloved soundtrack specialty labels are getting these done, when the materials are
available. While I much prefer the original tracks, a good rerecording will be fine. Here are a few of my
own heart's (and ears') desires:
(1) MIKLOS ROZSA...................THE THIEF OF BAGDAD (1940)
This is my favorite Rozsa score. Yes, I know BEN-HUR was his masterwork, and deservedly so. But this
is a "sentimental winner" for me. Now THIS is a film that I would like to see (and would travel a great
distance to hear) an orchestra play "live-to-film." And, in consolation, we do have Rozsa's concert version, Rozsa's own Polydor suite, Elmer Bernstein's Film Music Collection partial rerecording, and the isolated M&E tracks on the Criterion DVD - though my favorite cue, "The Flight of the Djinn" is tracked with an alternate
cue that has a different ending and doesn't quite fit. Fussy me.
(2) BERNARD HERRMANN..........THE DEVIL AND DANIEL WEBSTER (aka ALL THAT MONEY CAN BUY
This was his only Oscar-winning score and deserves a release. But the original elements seem to be lost.
We do have Herrmann's concert arrangements, but this is a very rich score to sample.
And an unusually innovative one at that. I recall the Stromberg-Morgan team considered it, but the
technicalities were too much.
(3) ELMER BERNSTEIN..............CAPTAINS AND THE KINGS (1976) (TV Mini-Series)
This flavorful, Emmy-nominated score accompanied a fine adaption of the novel.
For those of you unfamiliar with it, check out the Opening Credits.
The Main Title became the "NBC Best Sellers" Theme for the series.
Essence of Elmer Bernstein.

(4) JOHN SCOTT.......................THE BASTARD (1980) (TV Mini-Series)
This is an excellent John Scott score to the TV adaption of the John Jakes novel.
Terrific Main Title.
Just a few "hoped-for-someday" titles.
