Is this ambitious, mystery project scheduled to be LaLa Land's big release for the Christmas season like last year's Star Trek set?
Jthree
. . . How ambitious?

Well, Tonerow, that's a compelling argument, but it won't work on me. I happen to be a connoisseur of groovy 60s music. I'm no fan of Leroy Holmes, but I'll take Hugo Montenegro's first UNCLE LP over any of the actual soundtracks. It is one of my all-time favorite spy music albums, and not only that, I would probably include it in my top fifty favorite soundtrack albums of all time.
And Montenegro's album"Moog Power" is unbelievable. You must hear this.
Also, there are exceptions to scenarios you describe. The "I Spy" albums were very close to what was heard on the show; "Dark Shadows" used actual TV music; and others like "Peter Gunn" and "The Saint" at least captured the moods and flavor of the show, if not including the actual music.
Also, I do not subscribe to the idea that soundtrack albums need to to sound just like the film.
So, I would welcome the idea of having alternate arrangements of music from the shows you mention, and would not rule out the possibility that the albums could have sounded similar to the music on the shows.
But I get your point.

Agreed. I don't think the Montenegro UNCLE albums are any substitute for the original music as heard on the FSM albums, but they're still excellent albums which I like to listen to every few months. There's not that many albums that I can say that about. It's a pity really that he didn't do any more.

Can anyone explain why Robert Emmett Dolan is listed as the composer for THE VALIANT YEARS as a download at itunes ? Look at the album cover they show. Shouldn't the composer's name be Richard Rodgers?

Our big classic tv project WAS originally scheduled for Black Friday this year BUT, as always, projects of this magnitude tend to take more time to produce than other projects so we have delayed it until next year.
That said, we still do have a box set planned for this year...just not a tv one.

If we are going to count television mini series as well, I just discovered a couple days ago a late '80's one called "Fresno".
It's a well done, played-straight soap drama which parodies shows like "Dynasty", "Falcon Crest" and "Dallas".
The excellent lush score with dramatic pieces was done by John Morris. There were two episodes. The complete scores should easily fit on one CD. Well worth it.
