Sure hopes there's some meat on it!

We'll throw you a bone. Roger, Can you throw us a Friedhofer release ? PLEASE !
|
|
|

I've got my eyes closed, and I'm imagining "Secret Invasion". Please don't destroy this moment by any negativity.

Yeah, I'd kind of have moments like this back in the 70's--when I "got small."

By "meat" I was kind of hoping for a 2-CD set with the remains of various scores that haven't survived in complete form (or anything near complete form). Apparently, a lot of Friedhofer turned to vinegar before it could be saved. But I'm hopeful that there are some cherce bits...oh, yes, I am hopeful I'd really love a "Rains of Ranchipur" and "In Love and War" release. And if anything survives in stereo of "Boy on a Dolphin," well, my heart is racing just thinking of it. Way to go Ron, I'm with you ! Niall.

In Love in War (sigh) John Morgan needs to reconstuct this one, sadly. Rains, the same way, John, do you have yor ears on? John Morgan has DONE "The Rains of Ranchipur" -- it's on the Friedhofer disc with "The Adventures of Marco Polo", "The Lodger" and "The Seven Cities of Gold." "The Rains of Ranchipur" is, IMO, one of Morgan's finest reconstructions, and the performance under the baton of William Stromberg is exceptionally fine. True, it isn't the 20th Century-Fox orchestra under Lionel Newman's superb conducting, but it's damned good nonetheless.

Cool! My e-mail is unavailable just now as some quirk in the system either isn't reading my password correctly, or I am not giving the correct password (I haven't entered it once since the first time I checked that box that says "Remember password." The password is still there and the box is still checked but it wants me to reenter and I either don't remember the password or my ISP has a glitch.) We can chat here for a while until such time as I've gotten a new password. Great to hear from you! Of the film composers you mentioned, which are your favorite scores from the composers? Here are mine: Alfred Newman: The Robe,A Man Called Peter, How the West Was Won, How Green Was My Valley Hugo: The Bishop's Wife! (My favorite!) The Best Years of our Lives Miklos: Ben-Hur; Quo Vadis, Spellbound Erich: King's Row, The Sea Hawk Franz: Peyton Place, Cimarron, Demetrius Will wait to hear from you!
