I just watched the film on Neflix so I knew it was a short score, but I see they found a way to pad it out. Amazing the elements have been stored in perfection condition all these years. Not a huge fan of the score other than the main theme, but it's Disney so it belongs in my collection.

Mr Chriswell predicts: will be included in my next order!

And Saints be praised even though I'm non-religious.

Consider me intrigued... Added to my Netflix queue!!!

Love the ESCAPE Main Title! Never really saw the movie before or heard any of it's music before now.

Mandel also scored for Disney, their Original 1976 Jodie Foster version of FREAKY FRIDAY. I remember having this on VHS and liking the music.

With title song by the team that brought us the Academy Award winning Irwin Allen disaster film songs "There's got be a Morning After" and "We may never love like this again" from THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE and THE TOWERING INFERNO.

Love the ESCAPE Main Title!

Seems to me you are paying $19.99 just for that.

I've never seen the film either, but Johnny Mandel is such an instant purchase for me . . .

Oh, I didn't say I was buying.

I have to decide on either a CD or the I LOVE JERRY GOLDSMITH T-Shirt.

Having listened to the samples I don't find it "amazing" at all. Plenty of 70s scores sound similar. Good sounding, though like many of the era a bit heavy on the stereo separation. Really enjoy it though so I may be willing to overlook that anyway...

Listened to the samples. Love that main theme.

One thing: the 'Broom Sequence' cue...Mandel recycled that for his 'AMAZING STORIES' score. I was just so surprised when I heard that.

I've somehow never managed to see the film. I had the full sized film poster once upon a time (and a wad of others, now long lost, which would have been worth a fortune today) which I'd unfold and look at every now and then. The score is a product of it's time, but, hearing the samples I find my thoughts forming the line, "now, there's something you don't hear every day!" It's a good example of the artform as it once was. The style projects a comforting sense of domesticity that originated in the professionalism and familiarity of that era.

Couldn't agree more with both of you!

Glad to see Intrada releasing a Disney soundtrack from this era of my childhood. Of course I ordered it!

First time hearing this, or anything by this composer, and it does indeed sound interesting - If not quite my cup of tea. It seems to suffer the same fate that Richard Band's GHOST WARRIOR Intrada release suffered years ago, where all the strings are forced through one stereo channel and percussion through the other. It makes it extremely difficult to listen to the music with headphones. Anyone have any idea why this happens?

The nostalgia sector of my brain has been activated. There's no point in even trying to resist.

Ordered!
