Among the regular catalog titles are: - Henry Mancini Live In Japan R4P-5017 - Henry Mancini Presents Artie Kane Plays Organ! LSP-4595 - Henry Mancini Presents Artie Kane Playing The Swinging Screen Scene LSP-4693 The Artie Kane titles in particular seem to be rather easy to do. Any idea why this has never happened - whereas several other LPs have been re-issued time and again? Of course, there are still many other titles that have yet to available in digital format. Mostly, they are merely single themes on various artists soundtrack LPs, but also the notorious "Man Of The World" single.    Posted:   Jul 20, 2019 - 11:27 AM     By:   Leo Nicols   (Member) They are few, but there are still Mancini LPs that are missing on CD.

Stefan, you're right...still awaiting a CD release ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIPHAnL2Emk Yep. The crazy thing is that the public domain label Jasmine has just released - or is about to release - a Henry Mancini singles compilation. Guess which track is missing? I picked up the 45 some time ago, but as has to be expected with 45s, the condition leaves a lot to be desired. I think there has also never been a stereo release of this title. It has never been used on any LP and I think it has also not been part of RCA's early 1960s series of stereo singles. I'm really starting to believe that the tape is no longer with Sony/RCA or we would have seen a re-issue in the last 50+ years.    Posted:   Jul 20, 2019 - 5:26 PM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) Released in 1958.

As the logo in the lower right indicates, this was a promotional LP specially produced for the B.F. Goodrich Co. by RCA Victor.    Posted:   Jul 20, 2019 - 11:31 PM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) None of his Liberty albums were ever reissued in C.D.. "Driftwood and Dreams" may be the earliest Mancini Liberty album, being released in 1957, only in mono. When stereo LPs came in, Liberty reissued the album in stereo and mono in 1959 with a new title: "The Versatile Henry Mancini." The album has had only gray market CD releases--as "Driftwood and Dreams" from Oldays Records in Japan in mono, and as "The Versatile Henry Mancini" from el Records in the UK, which put both the mono and stereo versions on the CD.    Posted:   Jul 20, 2019 - 11:43 PM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) That B. F. Goodrich promotion must have been a success, because the following year (1965) RCA Victor produced another Mancini-conducted collection--"Academy Award Songs Volume 2" for the tire company. I'm starting to wonder now whether indeed all of the songs on these two LPs can be found elsewhere on Mancini's recordings.    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 12:00 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) This was the first Henry Mancini album I ever purchased. This 1966 release was issued on Liberty Records' budget label, Sunset Records. I see now that it is a 10-track cut-down version of the 1957 "Driftwood and Dreams" LP mentioned above, with the tracks "Bali Hai" and "Return To Paradise" being eliminated for this budget release.    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 12:43 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) I wasn't even aware that this LP existed, but I don't believe it's been on CD. It sems to be a live concert performance from 1970. Here's the program. Mancini conducts the "A" side and Bernstein conducts the "B" side. A1 - Pie In The Face Polka From "The Great Race" A2 - Charade Medley A3a - Born Free A3b - Where Is Your Heart A3c - More A3d - Samba De Orfeu A3e - Zorba The Greek A3f - I Will Wait For You A4 - The Pink Panther B1 - The Man With The Golden Arm B2 - Gone With The Wind (Tara's Theme) B3 - Spellbound B4 - Exodus B5 - The Magnificent Seven B6 - To Kill A Mockingbird    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 1:08 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) It doesn't appear that this 1977 album is on CD. It features narration/poetry by Australian radio personality John Laws set to music by Mancini.    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 1:29 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) Readers' Digest released this 5-LP set of Mancini recordings in 1982. (The LPs were also released individually.) Perhaps some of the 50 tracks here aren't available elsewhere.    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 1:45 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) Well, as it turns out, all 24 of the songs from those two B.F. Goodrich LPs, along with 7 others, turned up on this 1999 CD from RCA/BMG Spain. The CD is selling for $60 on Amazon.    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 2:05 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) In doing some further exploring, I found that the "Sousa In Stereo" LP was issued on CD as part of a 2016 gray market 10-CD Mancini set called "Milestones Of A Legend." The set comes from "The Intense Media," an imprint of the German gray market label Membran. They also include "The Versatile Henry Mancini" LP among the 16 LPs in the set (all from 1962 or earlier).    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 2:08 AM     By:   MusicMad   (Member) Well, as it turns out, all 24 of the songs from those two B.F. Goodrich LPs, along with 7 others, turned up on this 1999 CD from RCA/BMG Spain. The CD is selling for $60 on Amazon. You beat me to it ... I was preparing to comment about this CD release but making the observation that the original double vinyl album had a 1966 release date, whereas the single albums you detailed above were from 1964. Hence I wonder whether they are the same recordings (as supplemented by the additional seven songs) or perhaps the 31 track double album was a second go of the same material. I note that the running order of tracks in vol.1 does match the first disc of the double album (subject to the four additional tracks). Incidentally, this 31 track CD is probably my least favourite of his easy-listening albums ... it's not that I don't like the songs it's more that I've never been too fond of Mancini's chorus! Time and again I find either his arrangement or one or more voices doesn't work for me (some exceptions, of course, usually on OST releases).

I would love to see a CD release of that original album (and similarly: Filmharmonic'71 See: https://www.discogs.com/The-Royal-Philharmonic-Orchestra-Filmharmonic-70-Highlights-From-A-Festival-Of-Film-Music/release/5869553 Mitch    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 2:16 AM     By:   MusicMad   (Member) DP    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 2:17 AM     By:   MusicMad   (Member) TP !    Posted:   Jul 21, 2019 - 2:29 AM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) Well, as it turns out, all 24 of the songs from those two B.F.

Mitch I seriously doubt that the 24 recordings on the B.F. Goodrich releases were re-recorded just two years later. No doubt RCA's deal with the tire company was that they would have the exclusive rights to distribute the individual LPs to their customers for two years and that the re-issue rights would revert to RCA for a commercial release thereafter. Packaging those LPs together with some extra tracks made the product seem new even to those who may have gotten one of the earlier LPs at the tire store.     General Discussion: Mancini LPs not on CD    < 1 2  > >>  Go to page:  1 2   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2
