So, Ravens or 49ers? I know what I'm going to be listening to on Sunday. And I wonder if Bruce Dern has a copy of this score in his collection (he gets a nice shout-out in "Zero Dark Thirty").

And cameo in Django Unchained.

And he's just finished shooting a starring role in Alexander Payne's next movie, NEBRASKA.

That's too bad. This is one of my favorite Williams scores.

Appears to be OOP. No surprise it went before Small's incredibly atmospheric score to Marathon Man, one I consider to be one of the unique greats of its kind.

Actually Jason's comment above appears to still be relevant. Although it appears as OOP here at FSM's website, SAE has Black Sunday listed as currently being available. The CD's status at SAE is more likely to be correct. There are 102 fewer of the 250 'impossible dream' compilations put together by FSM.

The Baton: A John Williams Musical Journey

Episode 45 - Black Sunday
October 16, 2019

https://thebatonpodcast.podbean.com/e/episode-45-black-sunday/
John Williams closed out a very busy 1976 with his compositions for the score to the thriller Black Sunday, which would get a delayed release until spring 1977. Host Jeff Commings is joined by Siddique Hussain, who counts the score as one of his favorites from the Maestro in the time between Jaws and Star Wars. He cites some thematic material and musical styles used in the score that will make stronger appearances in future films, including Star Wars. Since the film did not fare well at the box office, and critics were divided on the movie, Williams’ score got lost in the mix of his two other 1977 compositions. Thanks to a CD released by Film Score Monthly—and this podcast episode—you can enjoy the finer points of this score!

For the interested, Arrow Films UK are giving this the Blu-ray treatment due
March 28th- with some added features but, looks like no “restoration” to its
2K scan- still one of the tremendous 70s thrillers thanks to director
Frankenheimer and that Williams guy too- plus check out the trippy new
artwork that looks like a giallo Super Bowl-
(PS I see in April that Arrow is releasing another weird blimp-centric
picture The Assassination Bureau which is very entertaining as well)

I worked on the layout and booklet design for this title (Peter Strain did the artwork) and was told that additional restoration work has been done, including correcting the opening titles to remove the window-boxing. smile

Fantastic!!! That was the ONE thing I hoped they had fixed. It's in my top 10 favorite movies ever, and the windowboxed opening credits sequence is so annoying. It's not just on the HD master, it's on the DCP Paramount sends out, I saw a screening a couple of years back at the Chinese, with Robert Evans speaking afterwards, and it had the windowboxing.

Luckily, I've seen it on film a couple of times, looking normal.
