Please, has anybody made up a track listing for the Soundtrack Library bootleg release of THE SWARM?

Thank you.

You know, I've posted this same thread before with no luck. Maybe with it at the top again, someone will have them.

I'd love to have the tracklisting as well. Saw the film for the first time weeks ago on TNT. Pretty bad, though.

Yes, the film is VERY bad (as I recall reading once, the bees were actually drawn ON the film), but another case of a wretched movie with a great Goldsmith score. I especially like "The Bees Arrive."

Awesomely bad, though the score is tremendous. Strangest SWARM fact: it received an Oscar nomination for Best Costume Design. I kid you not.

Joe Bob Briggs mentioned that one night when the film was shown on MONSTERVISION. He said it looked like the costumes were bought at the Salvation Army!

I have never seen the film, but I am addicted to the two tracks that Silva recorded ("The Bees Arrive" and "End Title").

This sounds like an AMAZING score... is the rest of the score as good? I might want to get the boot...

The film, however wretched, IS a non-stop action fest, and Goldsmith responded accordingly, in that inimitable 70s style; with those cues, you haven't even scraped the surface of what that score has to offer. The main title is one of my favorites. Nice love theme, "A Gift of Flowers." There's also an AMAZING subtler cue when Henry Fonda is injecting himself with killer-bee venom (that's how I remember the scene, anyway.) I can't WAIT to have this one. I'd be playing it this second if I had it.

I've heard the sound on this boot is pretty bad?

I have only a CDR of the LP release.

This is either a candidate for re-recording or a re-mastered FSM/Prometheus release I think.

Yeah, the sound on the boot is absolutely terrible. In fact, it's almost unlistenable.

I have the Soundtrack Library version of THE SWARM and it sounds like it was recorded in mono or mono tracks transfered to stereo with bad results. It doesn't sound that bad but I wouldn't have gotten it if I would have known about the sound. I've stayed away from other scores released by them.

The expanded Innerspace from Soundtrack Library has the same problems as the Swarm boot, they are quite annoying.
Great scores though, need a better release

Me again!
As I type this, I am listening to the complete Swarm c.d..
Maybe I have a different copy than the rest of you, but the sound on mine is TERRIFIC!
Also, I don't know if any of you can answer this question but there's one track, I think near the end, that has a jaw harp in it. Since I didn't see the movie I don't know if this is correct but did Goldsmith use this instrument for Slim Picken's scenes? Hope someone can answer THIS!
Later!
NP- uh... the Swarm!!

Attention! May I have your attention, please?
After watching the film on TNT yesterday, I've compiled my own track listing for THE SWARM. Please hold your applause until the end.

01. Main Title
02. Gen. Slater's Arrival
03. "A Moving Black Mass"
04. "What Happened Here?"
05. The Bees' Picnic
06. Bad News
07. First Hallucination
08. Plastics
09. The Infirmary
10. Toxic Venom/Next of Kin
11. Boys Will Be Boys
12. Potential Courtship
13. Boys vs. Bees
14. Heading Towards Marysville/Clarence
15. A Gift of Flowers
16. The Bees Arrive
17. Second Hallucination
18. A Boy's Story
19. Doctor's Chat
20. Walk Through Town
21. Don't Take the "B" Train!
22. The Air Drop
23. Life and Death
24. The Strange Fate of Dr. Krim
25. Mourning/To Houston
26. City Under Siege
27. Bees Inside
28. Finale & End Credits

Granted, there are 28 tracks here and 30 on the boot floating around, but I've a feeling that if you split tracks 10 and 14, then it'll break even. The following may sound ridiculous, but if you are dead-set on having track listings, then you'll do it: If you have the 30-track boot, make a post describing each cue (quiet, loud, tense, action-packed, comical, etc.).

Thank you and have a nice day!

SBD,

Thanks for the titles. I've been trying to get some. I've just never been able to go through the movie myself. In fact, never even seen it. Would it be possible for you to modify your post and put the times after the titles? I just want to make sure mine is the same.

I'm sorry, Sebulba, but I forgot to get the times.
