Dinko Goldmember	10 years ago? To the music of Robert Walsh, Johnny Douglas and the other Hasbro/DIC folks. G.I.Joe The Transformers Jem and the Holograms Watching the cartoons was one thing. But I'd often sit through an episode I'd seen many times just so I could hear the score. Some Canadian composer dude and the great score for The Racoons. Someone said it was made available on CBC Records, but I still haven't found a trace of it. More than anything else, I think the "film" music I enjoyed most was Shuki Levy and Haim Saban's for Les Mystérieuses Cités D'Or (The Mysterious Cities of Gold). But then, 10 years ago, I was realy more into Dolly Parton, Billy Dean and Patti Loveless than Jerry Goldsmith, Dmitri Shostakovich and Max Steiner...

Jeron Goldmember	Gee whiz... I was 10 years old. What was I listening to? Oh, yikes... now I remember. I was in a state of confusion... my 'pon far' of musical growth. -New Kids on the Block -Michael Jackson -Paula Abdul -The Little Mermaid -An American Tail -Fantasia -Out of Africa -The Man from Snowy River -Tchaikovsky -Beethoven -Mozart -NES VG Music from Contra and Castlevania -The Ten Commandments -Gone with the Wind -Mary Poppins -Batman -Beetlejuice -Peewee's Big Adventure -Explorers -King Soloman's Mines -Supergirl -Superman -Star Wars -GI Joe, Care Bears, Duck Tales, Gummy Bears, Smurfs, Star Trek: TNG... anything on TV I watched, I listened to. Alright, some of those things are really embarassing. But hey, it's where I was. Now, instead of New Kids on the Block, it's N*Sync or some Christian alternative stuff. OKAY, fire away! I'm a live target! Jeron

Timmer Goldmember	10 years ago I was 30 and was really out of touch with film music due to a few years spent travelling around the world, my only brushes with film scores was watching Total Recall in L.A. and buying a boot leg cassette of Morricone's Casualties Of War on the Kho San road in Bangkok Stuff like Dances With Wolves and Total Recall and other great late 80's early 90's soundtracks were all picked up a couple of years late by me "what the hell was a film score fan doing having a life?" I hear you say...it's against the rules isn't it?!

sabbey Goldmember	Better late, than never... Having a rather poor memory, I can't recall exactly what I was listening to. However, a few highlights that I do remember are... Akira (Yamashiro) Back to the Future 1-3 (Silvestri) Batman / Batman Returns (Elfman) Blade Runner (Vangelis) Macross II (Sagisu) Robotech (Various) Robot Carnival (Hisaishi) The Rocketeer (Horner) Star Trek: TNG Volume 1-3 (McCarthy/Jones) Star Wars Trilogy (Williams) Terminator 2 (Fiedel) Most of the rest was of the songtrack variety and other radio music. Pop, rock and the like! Lastly, I also was quite fond of a bunch of cartoons. Regards, Sean Robert Abbey

jeffy Goldmember	It was 10 years ago this summer that I bought my first score CD: Aladdin. This was after I wore out my cassette just a few months before. So Aladdin was my first real movie music purchase, with a great album called Kid Stuff to follow. If you don't know, Kid Stuff is a CD of mostly John Williamsconcert arrangements, conducted by Williams and performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. as far as concert arrangement performances go, this isn't bad. Nostalgia is cool.

David Maxx Goldmember	I knew of film scores' existence, but it was not a hobby of mine yet. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know they were called film scores or the fact that they were available to buy. I was only 7 years old! [Message edited by David Maxx on 06-11-2002]

Hector J. Guzman Goldmember	Ah, yes... the early 90s... MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice, hehehe... around this time I had already bought my first soundtrack... Star Trek on cassette... then I bought the soundtrack from Back to the Future and the compilation by Paramount, "Star Trek: The Astral Symphony".

Maestro Sartori Goldmember	Hmmmm .... 1992, summer. Let's think here. I was in tech school in the Air Force. Ah! (in no particular order or rating): Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Batman Batman Returns Cool World Nightbreed Darkman Dick Tracy Pee Wee's Big Adventure/Back to School Adventures of Ford Fairlane Superman (cassette) Basic Instinct Can't think of any others. Was a very strange time. My non-soundtrack listening equalled my soundtracks. Guns 'N' Roses, Metallica, and others..... Jon

TV's Frank Goldmember	10 years ago? I got into more pop music than I had before, with bands such as The Sunday, The Cranes, Kitches of Distinction, Cranberries, Soundgarden, and Smashing Pumpkins. As for scores, I discovered Elliot Goldenthal in 1992 with ALIEN 3 and it was love at first listen. My Goldsmith collection was still in its infancy as it was extremely difficult to track all those old 70's and 80's scores of his on LP only, but I at least had ST:TMP and STV, TOTAL RECALL, LEVIATHAN, RAMBO II, and MEDECINE MAN. FAR AND AWAY got lots of play that year, as did HOOK, 1492, ROCKETEER, NIGHTBREED, BATMAN RETURNS, HELLBOUND, THE FLY, WELCOME HOME ROXY CARMICHAEL, STAR TREK VI, COLUMBUS: THE DISCOVERY, FIELD OF DREAMS, BARON MUNCHAUSEN, the expanded CONAN THE BARBARIAN, etc. All wonderful music.

Tom_B_Stone Minimember	10 years ago I was listening to a bunch of crummy sounding tapes of scores, many of which are now sounding fine on CDs from FSM, Varese Sarabande, and Prometheus, or have been spectacularly re-recorded on Marco Polo.
