I just found out that the amazing Sue Raney sings the vocal version of the "Wait Until Dark" Mancini song on this FSM cd.



Wow! I'm buying it next!

Anyone still need a copy of this one? I just ordered one from Avatarmusic in the UK, an Amazon reseller that I have had great past experience with. They still have a couple of copies at an excellent price here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B000TMWTY4/ref=sr_1_1_olp?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1392438283&sr=1-1&keywords=Wait+until+dark&condition=new

not any more, apparently.
I never got into the score because I didnt get into the movie (dont think I finished it). However, I watched "Eyes of Charles Sand" (available from Warner Archive) which 'borrowed' the music and now I really like it. Sometimes you dont know what will attract you to a score.


Last Child,
Keep an eye on that link I supplied. The supplier seems to be getting a trickle of some of these OOP FSM releases from somewhere. I've seen Wait Until Dark pop up a couple of times and then be bought. Check it every other day and you might get lucky.

Chris.

I saw WUD on TV ages ago and then again on DvD for a second time just recently. It wasn't what I expected either. As the FSM description above says, it was based on a stage play. And that's just how the film came over.

I think for a more uncomfortable viewing experience with similar subject matter, Mia Farrow in Blind Terror (See No Evil in the USA), has the edge. But then, it is the more recent film (set in the UK.) Both do a very good job of highlighthing the vulnerability of blind people. And I think that in both teleplays the women portrayed have only just gone blind for the purpose of storyline.

I was in Last Child's position whereby the CD disappeared not long after initially spotting it. If you don't act immediately be prepared to be disappointed moments later. I thought the chance to get the disc for a smaller, rather than larger hole in the pocket, had gone for good. There's another Amazon UK vendor perpetually coming up with a new hand of Intrada's The Deep.

I see Mancini sued (and won) over portions of his music for WUD being used in Eyes Of Charles Sand.

The exchange rate at the moment seems to be something like this:-

1 Dollar -> 3/5 Pounds Sterling.
1 Pound Sterling -> 1 & 2/3 Dollars, both with minor variation.
