I kind of lost a bit of interest in him after year 2000, and I'm not really buying his albums anymore, but it's fun to return to his long-gone past.

Regarding following titles: Revenge Of The Nerds, Girls Just Want To Have Fun, Real Genius, Jumpin' Jack Flash and The Great Outdoors. Does anyone know how much music he wrote for these movies? Would love to see these getting a score release some day (and also why not official score release of The Lost Boys and Gung Ho too). I know there is about 30 minutes of score to Lost Boys so the amount of music is no problem there).
And why not a score breakdown to Revenge Of The Nerds, Girls Just Want To Have Fun, Real Genius and Jumpin' Jack Flash?
I remember there was quite a bit of music in REAL GENIUS, that one deserves a release. NERDS and FUN didn't have much score but FUN had some great cues. GRANDVIEW USA and RECKLESS are also great early TN scores.
As is LIGHT OF DAY from 1987, a more atmospheric score. He also wrote a dynamite score for one episode of OTHERWORLD in 1985.
This is what I said about THE GREAT OUTDOORS in 2009:
"The score was really varied, all kinds of styles thrown into the mix, and not very reminiscent of other TN-scores. There was a nice "love theme" and something a bit similar to Breaking The Code from Jumpin' Jack Flash. Some jazz stuff and also some orchestral suspense."
I wrote this about JJ FLASH:
"Quite a bit of score in the film, I'm sure there could be a 35-40 minute score album release from this, if any label would want to."
