Already had DINOTOPIA and CLEOPATRA, both of which are good scores, and recommended to anyone who doesn't have them.
Ended up buying 3 others: the concert album, and the 2 American Revolution-themed scores. Have no idea what they're like, but at these prices, they're worth a listen.
Grab these while they last. You won't find these prices anywhere else.
John,
Fields of Freedom is based on the Battle of Gettysburg (Civil War) and We Fight To Be Free is based on the Revolutionary War and they are both FANTASTIC. Less than 60 minutes combined but powerful and beautiful to listen to. I won't tell you what I paid but I would not miss out on this deal,
Thanks for this. I ordered me them I didn't already have. It's been too long since I last got anything from Jones, so this was in many ways a great hint. Plus, I also notified some of my Finnish score diggers about this, and they, too, ordered a bunch.
Thanks for the heads up! I picked up Dinotopa, Cleopatra, and live double-album. I love Jones' score to Merlin, but haven't heard much else, so I'm pretty excited to check these out based on the clips! Hard to beat that price for some experimentation.

Have you heard THE DARK CRYSTAL? If you have not, you would be in for a treat. It was last released on LLL.
A nice sale, but somewhat compromised by the surcharges. Shipping is high wherever you buy from: I'm in the UK and the postage for the £3 discs alone is 111%! The postage calculator also doesn't seem to work properly: put DINOTOPIA and CLEOPATRA in your basket and you get no discount on the postage; put 2 copies of the 2-disc concert in and you do get a discount...
The Dark Crystal is a stone cold masterpiece of a score.
Has anyone received a shipping notice from this sale yet, btw? Nothing on my end yet.
I have not received as much as an acknowledgement which bugs me. I only received the usual PayPal email that my money was sent and received. I sent an email to the website - we'll see!
I purchased and paid for Dinotopia on 10/01/13 and sent a follow-up email on 10/05/13. I have heard nothing. I am beginning to regret that I made the purchase.
Can anyone else tell me if they have received their item or have received any kind of acknowledgement of their purchase?

I am in the same situation as you. I ordered Three and Out and the RTVE Orchestra Madrid Symphonic Concert on Oct. 1. I have only the Paypal receipt. No other acknowledgment from the site. I will likely give it another week before I start trying to contact them.
Got the same message today, but for only one of the two different orders I placed (the more recent one on Oct 6, not the one on the 2nd). Not sure what to make of that.
(I sort of picture Trevor Jones putting all these CD orders into little padded envelopes and cursing the very idea of having a sale in the first place.)
Just a heads up for anyone who's ordered the Madrid Concert: I ordered it when the sale was first announced, and I just received an email from Contemporary Music Productions with the following message:
"Hi, I am afraid I have had an unprecedented rush to buy this title, and it has now sold out. I am sorry I will have to make a refund. Please be advised that the title will soon become available on iTunes."
