That would be new for me. (Do you have a source btw. ?) I know, a lot of masters from Rock & Pop musicians are gone ("Lynyrd Skynyrd", "Steppenwolf", "Supertramp") and soundtrack masters from Frank Skinner e. g., but "Airwolf" was never mentioned afaik. But it could be possible, because nobody really knows or wants to know, says or wants to say, what has been destroyed. I remember, John Petersen said in an interview, that he was told, that his scores for "Miami Vice" had been destroyed. But later someone said that's not true. Some facts would be very nice.

Liner notes writer Jeff Bond had some cool stuff to share about these two new releases, on Facebook:
”Okay, this was fun. Several years ago I wrote liner notes for Oliver Nelson’s tremendous score for the oddball missing link movie Skullduggery. This is a real find in great sound from an incredibly underrated and underrepresented composer. Skullduggery sat around for several years until LLL positioned it as the back end of a double album, so now we get another terrific score for a grim little western with Richard Widmark, Death of a Gunfighter. Bonus: Oliver Nelson is best known for working himself to death writing music for The Six Million Dollar Man, and you actually get some Six Million Dollar Man music here as Nelson reused some of his main title music as the opening to one SMDM episode.
I also had the pleasure of talking to Sylvester Levay, one of the major 80s synth score composers and the artist behind the 70s hit “Fly, Robin Fly” about his score for the ridiculous but refreshingly analog action thriller Navy Seals—music that made Jim Abrams laugh so much he hired Levay to score his takeoff of military action films Hot Shots! Thanks to Michael V. Gerhard and Mike Matessino for these wonderful gigs.”

Wonder if Navy Seals is any different than the Intrada version?
I guess we will find out tomorrow.
