dgoldwas Oscar® Winner	I'm sorry you think of it as a "fetish", whereas I just see it as providing useful links to answer people's questions. I'll keep your comments in mind next time you have a trailer music question. Dan

Marcelo Ferreyra Oscar® Winner	Thanks Dan, that's a great album. sorry I retitled as "Dark Shadows Movies" in the list. What I like about Cobert is that he always has a "moody" quality on his music. Is like an upgraded republic serial sound so to speack. In other words the mood is always the most important.

Graham Watt Oscar® Winner	Bob Cobert! Now THERE's a name from my wasted youth! By the way, shout me down if you will, but did he get an...orthodox musical training? I always thought that he sounded somewhat amateurish, especially in his music for some of the Dan Curtis TV movies. Moon Of The Wolf was him, wasn't it? Sounded a bit banal to me, like someone wanted to do funky music in their garage. And all that stopping and starting incredibly programmatic "horror" music in things like...Trilogy Of Terror was it? Here I am, prepared as always to be proved wrong. Or perhaps proven.

Marcelo Ferreyra Oscar® Winner	Born in Brooklin in 1924, Bob Cobert played the piano from the age of 5 but by 14 he has shifted to clarinet and saxophone and formed his own jazz band. During the war years he attended Julliard by day while playing such prestige New York venues as the Stork Club and the Copacabana byn night. He latter studied composition at Columbia with Henry Cowell.

Graham Watt Oscar® Winner	Okay, okay Marcelo! Bob Cobert has obviously learned his stuff. I shall now put my head in a tub of boiling water whilst shouting "I was WRONG!" (but secretly thinking that he still sounds banal to me).

Marcelo Ferreyra Oscar® Winner	well, Yes, some of the Cobert music is indeed banal, but I think on purpose. Case in question "Quentin Theme" But when appears on Dark Shadows on the gramophone is..(Please, allow me to sai it bannally)... COOOOOOLLL!!!!!
