OK, so I bought 'Flight...' and Intrada's complete 'Patton' (still in print and both now completely replacing my FSM Patton album), and Vampirella (because Joel Goldsmith doesn't get the credit he deserves).

For the information of those in the UK who have ordered PHOENIX, mine arrived today. Only a quick sample listen and there's a real improvement in the sound over the original version

I always liked that part in the music and didn't even realize it was a recurring theme (or maybe I noticed when I watched the film, but if so I forgot). How many more instances are there of that theme throughout the score?

I believe it shows up in Desolate Desert, Guilty, Cobb's Demise, Bird Bait, Towns Is Back, Towns' Anger, Let's Get Back to Work, Sick Camel, Stupid. It's not at all a heroic theme. It really carries the character's psychological baggage. So by the time we get to where Dorfman's big secret comes out, the theme all but disappears for the balance of the film, including the daring flight where you would rightly assume it would dominate. But that portion of the film is about escaping the desert, so its theme takes over with numerous variations. It's almost as if the desert, as a character, has allowed them to escape its clutches with heroic music treatments, rather than Towns as pilot being the hero. Each man is small compared to the desert.
