Now someone needs to start work on getting us Kamen's HIGHLANDER already. It's my other Kamen holy grail.

** And if it ever gets released, will Tyuan pitch a fit over that one too if it doesn't include the half dozen Queen songs on the CD? smile

What ever happened with Perseverance doing "Highlander" years ago? Did it fall through?

Wow. I take off for some dinner and I come back to find the pile-on still going on.
Classy.

Is it that word "soundtrack" on the cover?

(Is that a contractual requirement?)

What if it said "complete score" instead?

…on the packaging… there is a claim that it is complete.

Look! Roger just admitted in his own words that the packaging claims it's complete!

But we costumers know better!

Epistle to Schiffy

SchiffyM you seem perplexed
Pissed off , peeved and vexed
Why can't you believe
That i can read the
Used bin tea leaves?

Bruce Richard marshall


Believe me, dearest Mr. Marshall
I find I cannot be impartial
Forgive my being pedagogical
But your tea leaves are just illogical
It's clear to me that through your fandom
You search for patterns in things random
You think some label's private boast
Alerts score nerds from coast to coast
To grab the old disc, and sell off it
To a store at tiny profit
Pretending there's sufficient number
Makes your theory even dumber
We soundtrack fans are smart, but rare
I add to this (as if you care)
That many endure repetition
And keep, as well, the old edition
So sure, if you wait long enough
You'll see reissues of most stuff
Your tea leaves simply don't compute
And so your theory I refute
Illogic's easy to deduce
I just don't buy it, sorry Bruce.

the poin is simply:
THIS IS NOT COMPLETE! NOT AT ALL!
No ending theme song = NO COMPLETE SOUNDTRACK!
This is a "complete score edition", not a "complete soundtrack edition"!
Shame on Intrada for writing the false in the front cover and shame on the owners of the song rights for not giving the permission! It's a disrespect action to all soundtrack lovers (US, the COSTUMERS!).
They don't want to give us their song? Ok, so I will not give them my money. That's all.

PS: capitalising is a crazy way of writing typical only of Your Language. Here in Italy (and in European languages except English) capitalising is used only in the right way: to indicate people and country names. All the rest of capitalising is useless and crazy for our language.



I doth protest! I'am NOT a COSTUMER! big grin

I cannot help but be impressed by how some are now taking shots at a member whose 1st language is not English.
So diplomatic and so inclusive.

roll eyes

Capitalise and capitalize are both correct, depending on where you're from and how strict you are with your English. Personally I interchange -ise and -ize all the time (which is more than I do with, say, color and colour).

As for ROBIN HOOD: the loss of the songs doesn't bother me: they're on the original album anyway, should I ever have the desire to listen to them which, in the last 26 years, I absolutely haven't. I had honestly forgotten there was even more than one song on the first ROBIN HOOD release! More than an hour of previously unavailable Kamen seems like a worthwhile trade for two songs I've already got elsewhere. In exactly the same way, the loss of Madonna's "song" is a price worth paying for all that extra Arnold on DIE ANOTHER DAY. When £$£$£ allows, I'm up for both of them.

it went quiet. iirc someone asked MV about Highlander in his Q&A thread recently and he said it wasn't likely to happen.
the relevant question here is - if we jettison the songs does it become any more likely?
or is the Queen contribution too big of an omission for even the labels to consider?
as much as I dig their 'New York New York' cover, I might honestly prefer a score only release.

I don't remember there being two songs on the OST. But I haven't played the score in decades. I understand why some are disappointed the songs aren't on there. Kinda like with the Titanic release, where I thought the song was far more pivotal to the music as a whole. But then again I was disappointed Shatner's monologue wasn't on the Star Trek box set. But none of these are deal breakers by any stretch of the imagination. These are all amazing releases.

I am imagining Dr. McCoy, in his cordrazine-induced "You! What planet is this!" hysteria, shouting "THIS IS NOT COMPLETE! NOT AT ALL!"

"I won't cut your song! It is THEY who do the cutting!"

Some people here see the glass as half full, and some as half empty. To me, though, the glass is filled to the brim, and there's another smaller glass off to the side, also available for me to drink from.

This is one of the better comments about the overall state of great soundtrack releases and specialty labels. Amen!

Yeah, the other one was a lesser effort from Jeff Lynne, whom I generally love. It was a curious inclusion, as it wasn't very catchy. I'm not even sure if the thinking was another pope song may help sales.

Granted, Lynne was a major music producer around that era (George Harrison's "Cloud Nine," Tom Petty's "Full Moon Fever," Roy Orbison's "Mystery Girl," The Traveling Wilbury's, and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers' "Into The Great Wide Open," among others.
