One is a beautiful, sometimes sweeping miniseries score from the late 80s. The other is an action adventure score originally in our MAF line, but now expanded and is considerably longer -- from the early 90s.

Due to plant crunches at this time of year, we're announcing as usual but one will ship later in the week and the other the following Monday.

You *just* beat me to the announcement! My guess: Lonesome Dove for the miniseries. No idea about the action score.

It's interesting that the first release doesn't mention if it is a premiere release or a reissue.
I guess some of those Delerue's TV scores from the 80s would be great but no idea how many of them qualify as miniseries or just movies - I think Sword of Gideon might fit the clues... or Queenie. In case that one is supposed to be a premiere release...

if a reissue then Lonesome Dove would be definitely great... but again I suppose it might have been mentioned that it would actually require 2 (or more CDs).

You're right that it would probably need 2 CDs... but did Roger say anywhere that these were single disk releases? I can't recall... I know he announced earlier in the year that there would be 4 releases coming in December, I just don't remember if that was 4 CDs specifically.

Geez, that would be so great if true!

Here's a list of releases....

Great score, but I wouldn't classify it as action adventure. And the original had over 65 minutes of music.

Homeward Bound?

Certainly an adventure movie, but is it really action? The one that jumps out at me from the list is Beastmaster 2, which would follow the successful re-release of Beastmaster last year by Quartet (I think?)

The genres would fit certainly better, but Beastmaster 2 was already re-released by Buysoundtrax.

Hmm. No idea then. I looked through the wikipedia page entry and sorted by date and there's a number of nearly forgotten films from that time period which might fit the bill. No idea which one Intrada would choose to release, but they sometimes pick re-releases of films that are extremely low profile. Seems like a lot of stuff scored by Richard Band might fit the bill.

Chris.

Could be John Scott's LIONHEART but at around 63 Minutes I always thought that it was more or less complete !! The movie was just released on Blu-Ray in the US and here in Germany.

Ernest Gold's LINCOLN ?

I don't see Toy Soldiers fitting as that was NOT an adventure score. Terrorists were killing kids in a private school and taking kids hostages, not very adventurous. Plus the 65 minutes seems to be a rather nice length. I can't imagine there is that much more music.

Sayign that I have ZERO idea what they could be. Enjoy reading what others thing though smile

My hope exactly. Although, "considerably longer" might disqualify it. Unless there was a ton of unused music recorded for it.

Whether the film is truly drama or action is debatable, but half the score is some of the most "action" "adventure" emotive music from the 90's IMHO.

But again, "considerably longer"? i agree with you there. :-)

Wasn't Last Starfighter a MAF album that came out in the 1990s?

 
 
 Posted:   Dec 6, 2014 - 7:11 PM   
 By:   dbrooks   (Member)

Yes The Last Starfighter was released by Intrada in 1996. I don't know if this is considered early 90s?

I'm going with Horner's A FAR OFF PLACE.

That's ambiguous. Does it mean the the film's year or does it mean the year Intrada released it? Both change what it could be.
