If the tapes for this series could be found in the Fox archives, I would be all over an album release... even if I had to buy a 2CD set of other composers' (probably also excellent!) music for less than 20 minutes of previously unreleased Goldsmith.

Somebody has uploaded David Rose's re-recording of his Season One "Bracken's World" main title onto YouTube. Rose recorded it for his "Happy Heart" LP.
I had never heard this recording before and it's marvelous!
As mentioned earlier in this thread, Rose also recorded the "love theme" from "Bracken's World" (which later became the Season Two main title) for the "Happy Heart" LP. For the LP, this theme is entitled "I'm Lonely For You":

This is the full length album version of the song. It's beautiful - lush orchestration, soft vocals, and the Bergmans at their poetic best:
