How would you expand something like King Kong now?
Posted By: Stephen Woolston 10/22/2009 - 9:00 PM
At the time FSM released the album version of King Kong (the ‘76 one), I was massively impressed with them for doing it. I love it. (Rumour has it I'm a John Barry fan.)

Of course, as a score, it’s as badly in need of expansion as many of the old Bond albums were. But, back then, it just wasn't going to happen.

Jerry Goldsmith concert 1989
Posted By: Stephen Woolston 4/6/2009 - 9:00 PM
Today, I was fumbling in old boxes. I found a cassette labelled, "BBC Radio 2 'Music by' show: John Barry edition, Feb 22+Feb 29 1992." I dug a little deeper and found another. Not specifically dated but I know it was recorded in either 1988 or 1989. It was the BBC Radio 2 live broadcast of Jerry Goldsmith's London concert with the Philharmonia.

Then it occurred to me. 2009 represents the 20th or 21st anniversary of me taping that concert off the radio.

Please...Less Apocalyptic Chorus
Posted By: Stephen Woolston 1/27/2009 - 7:00 AM
One of the things I love about the Internet age is the ability to email your childhood heroes. Someone I'd always wanted to send some fan mail to was Sally Stevens—so I did. We had a little chat, in fact. What I loved isn't just that she happily answered my questions about the many films she'd sung on, but the fact she gave me her time. It was just before last year's Oscars and when we finished our chat, she said she was just off to rehearse the chorus for the Oscar ceremony! What the... I had no idea. She's got such a job to do and she was giving time to me? Wow!

CD Reviews: Capricorn One and The Fantastic Four



Capricorn One **** 1⁄2

JERRY GOLDSMITH

Intrada Special Collection Vol. 21

26 tracks - 56:31

Capricorn One needs no introduction. A conspiracy era drama filled with gripping tension and sweaty climaxes, it led to one of Jerry Goldsmith's most famously edgy

Monte Walsh CD Review

by Stephen Woolston

Brief foreword by LK: Here at FSM we have never reviewed one of our own CD productions, at least not in the actual magazine. We feel it's kind of lame and there's no way to be objective -- it's a conflict of interest.

This is what I told Stephen Woolston when he submitted the following Monte Walsh CD review to us. I tried to help him find another magazine that would run it, but they d
