Per Roger over at Intrada:

"I noticed a completely coincidental similarity between our two releases coming out next week. Their covers are both mainly black and white. Each has as little splotch of red...in almost the exact same place. One has a little green as well to break the consistency. But side by side it's uncanny how the covers are linked, even though completely unrelated in all other respects."

Any ideas, folks?

Chris

The only thing I can think of is Gorky Park. Although I doubt it's one of the releases.

A long shot perhaps, but it's a personal grail of mine: Deceived by Thomas Newman?

Hello

The only film that springs to mind that is black and white with a splodge of red is Schindler's List.

But like my esteemed colleague Commissioner Mcmillan I also doubt if it is one of the releases.

Regards

CC

Some long overdue Brian May perhaps?

I would certainly fit the cover clues and Intrada's history of releasing Horner scores. There was, however, a fairly recent re-release of the score on Kritzerland which was basically a re-ordered, re-mastered version of the Varese CD release. I don't think it was complete, but I remember that the booklet mentioned there were only a few cues missing.

Still it's a pretty decent score from Horner's early period and the Kritzerland issue is OOP, so maybe this is one of the titles. Good guess at any rate.

Mmm, any soundtracks I'm waiting for, I'd think the cover would be a riot of colour, but fingers crossed. I've still yet to by an Intrada release this year.

Would love to finally see SCARFACE. How about a little Grusin and ABSENCE OF MALICE?

Predator 2 - complete

Here's the iTunes cover.




Don't think it's it, though. Because: Varèse.

But could one of them be The Godfather?

This would be excellent but i doubt it unfortunately because the red mentioned aren't splotched but highlighted words, i hope i am wrong though!

The old Varese cover of "Basic Instinct" is black and white with some red for the the word BASIC. But the later Prometheus is essentially complete and, as far as I know, is not sold out or OOP.

A bit more from Roger, which has peaked my interest a bit, always happy when an LP becomes a CD.

Both releases are reissues. One is a straight LP long long overdue on CD, but the masters had long been elusive. The other is a reissue that has been on CD a couple of times, but this time expanded and in stereo! Well, to be fair some of the tracks were in stereo and some were really center channel heavy to ostensibly be mono. Remixed from the 24-track, now everything is in cracking stereo.
