Like most movie score fans my age, Faltermeyer's scores from Beverly Hills Cop 1 and 2, Top Gun and Fletch are holy grails when it comes to an official release. Bizarrely, The Running Man got an almost full release and I don't regard it as one of his most exciting scores. It's very good but not as much fun, in my view. I'll also add At Close Range, by Patrick Leonard. I'm acutely aware that most of the score consists of variations of the Madonna song "Live to Tell" but only one score track has ever been released, and that was on the Best of Hemdale compilation. I wouldn't mind a more comprehensive release, regardless of the repetition.

Many of those albums you guys list at least have a score track or two. 80s albums with ZERO score on them: Tuff Turf - Jonathan Elias Rude Awakening - Jonathan Elias Revenge Of The Nerds - Thomas Newman Where The Boys Are - Sylvester Levay Body Rock - Sylvester Levay Burglar - Sylvester Levay Vision Quest - Tangerine Dream Girls Just Want To Have Fun - Thomas Newman Beverly Hills Cop II - Harold Faltermeyer Fatal Beauty - Harold Faltermeyer Less Than Zero - Thomas Newman Some Kind Of Wonderful - Stephen Hague, John Musser The Wraith - Michael Hoenig, J. Peter Robinson Johnny Be Goode - Jay Ferguson License To Drive - Jay Ferguson I wonder if we will ever see any of these scores be released?

Many of those albums you guys list at least have a score track or two. 80s albums with ZERO score on them: Vision Quest - Tangerine Dream If memory serves, Vision Quest had a short score, but was one of TD's best ones. Was very disappointed they didn't even include a short suite or a "theme" track. A short score indeed. I remember spotting the Vision Quest LP in a shop many years ago. Strange to see "MUSIC BY TANGERINE DREAM" in big letters in the film credits on the back cover, but no TD material on the album... :-(
