I think this would appeal to fans of STAR TREK:TOS music. Many many thanks Lukas.    Posted:   Mar 22, 2011 - 12:49 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) if anybody who bought this [great score] is unsatisfied and would like to unload it, i am looking to make a trade bruce    Posted:   Mar 22, 2011 - 4:05 PM     By:   .   (Member) I like the title of Track 13 "My Echo, My Monkey and Me", a play on the popular song from Rio Bravo, "My Rifle, My Pony and Me". Question: Unless I missed it in the notes, I don't see a "Conducted By" credit. Did Van Cleave conduct? Also, out of curiosity, why does the cover simply say "Music From the Motion Picture" rather than a grander "Complete Motion Picture Score" (as the CD is described inside the booklet)?    Posted:   Mar 22, 2011 - 4:28 PM     By:   Charles Thaxton   (Member) I like the title of Track 13 "My Echo, My Monkey and Me", a play on the popular song from Rio Bravo, "My Rifle, My Pony and Me".

I always enjoyed (Nathan) Van Cleave's 'Twilight Zone' scores, on Disc 3 of the Silva compilation, and the online samples were intriguing, but the audio quality of the disc is outstanding. I love the spooky mystery and square-jawed heroic nature of the score. Very amusing and affecting, quite haunting in places, and terrific fun. It's quite a classic from another era. Thumbs up from me.    Posted:   Mar 24, 2011 - 5:20 PM     By:   jkannry   (Member) Love it as well. And I was one of the people requesting it.    Posted:   Mar 26, 2011 - 8:47 AM     By:   RoryR   (Member) Man, am I frustrated. I'm probably one of the first that requested this title from FSM, way back last century, but when I ordered it, I also ordered the deeply discounted FSM's THE EGYPTIAN and DEMETRIUS AND THE GLADIATORS. But it turns out FSM is out of stock on THE EGYPTIAN -- but it'll be coming in next week. If I'd known this when I ordered, I'd have broken it up, but there's no sense in doing that now. And so, I wait.    Posted:   Mar 26, 2011 - 11:23 AM     By:   Dana Wilcox   (Member) Also, out of curiosity, why does the cover simply say "Music From the Motion Picture" rather than a grander "Complete Motion Picture Score" (as the CD is described inside the booklet)? Ever since my earliest experiences buying film music recordings (late 50's/early 60s), the various terms used to describe what exactly was on that slab of vinyl inside the cover of a "soundtrack" have been essentially meaningless. Horrific re-recordings were called "Original Soundtrack Recordings" and original soundtrack recordings were called "Music from the Motion Picture Score" etc., ad nauseum, and the fact is that there is not now and has never actually been any standard for how film music is labeled. We know of course what we mean by "original soundtrack recording" but such concerns have traditionally been of trivial importance to people putting out soundtracks. I think in general we're doing better these days with the advent of FSM and Intrada, where the producers actually care about what they're releasing, and have experience as collectors before entering the marketplace themselves.    Posted:   Mar 26, 2011 - 11:52 PM     By:   Lukas Kendall   (Member) re: the "Music From the Motion Picture" heading, Paramount is using that as a matter of studio policy just in case "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" might mislead a customer if the music on the CD is not exactly edited and presented as in the film itself. That's all... Lukas    Posted:   Mar 27, 2011 - 12:23 AM     By:   Steve Johnson   (Member) A classic score. I've recommended it for decades. A science fiction film score classic.    Posted:   Mar 27, 2011 - 12:25 AM     By:   GoblinScore   (Member) Um, Van Cleave orchestrated FEAR STRIKES OUT/THE TIN STAR for Elmer Bernstein on the recent, fine Kritzerland CD - kind of a cool fact I didn't know His TZ work (Van Cleave) has always stood out for me, I look forward to getting this score someday, since I have no idea what it sounds like, ditto the film. Cheers LK!    Posted:   Mar 27, 2011 - 12:42 AM     By:   Steve Johnson   (Member) Well. On a scale of one to ten, I'd have to give this 100.    Posted:   Mar 27, 2011 - 1:17 AM     By:   Josh   (Member)    Posted:   Mar 27, 2011 - 5:46 PM     By:   George Komar   (Member) Um, Van Cleave orchestrated FEAR STRIKES OUT/THE TIN STAR for Elmer Bernstein on the recent, fine Kritzerland CD - kind of a cool fact I didn't know Van Cleave also orchestrated Bernstein's original 1956 score for THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, along with Lucien Cailliet and Leo Shuken.    Posted:   Apr 3, 2011 - 8:10 PM     By:   Chris Avis   (Member) Just received this today along with the Homecoming/Rascals and Robbers. I've never seen the film nor do I own anything else by Van Cleave. When the announcement for this came out, I immediately thought 'oh look, here's another obscure score that will in no way appeal to me', but I remember having quite enjoyed Van Cleave's suite from a Twilight Zone episode on one of the early Varese CDs. I tried the sound clips, liked them and gave this a shot. Boy am I glad I did. This is a fabulous release of a beautiful score. Thanks again to FSM for making this happen. Chris.    Posted:   Apr 4, 2011 - 1:37 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) ROBINSON CRUSOE ON MARS original soundtrack lp album* Paramount Records 1964 Side One 1. Main Title 2.
