Nothing yet for me, but the month is young.

So, if i was to be allowed, i would have beaten you to starting this thread by posting it at 12:00 the bewitching hour.

Let's see what else we can get...

Back To The Future II (Silvestri)
Back To The Future III (Silvestri)
Lethal Weapon (Kamen)

Thir13en Ghosts (John Frizzell; ***1/2; a bit more sound design than I expected, but still a good listen)

[Message edited by MarkA on 11-09-2002]

Green Berets (Rozsa)
Point Blank/The Outfit (Mandel/Fielding)
Ocean Men (Eidelman)
Country Bears(Young)
Bandits (Young)
Sweet November (Young)

There are some questionable interpretations of course, but much of it is very good indeed. Arranged in chronological order, what struck me was how... boring...John Barry has become since about, oooh, twenty years ago?. In general. And I still love him.

• Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Dumbledore cover (would have picked the Hermione cover, but she's half hidden in shadows)

On order:
Home Alone 2 (Williams)
Big (Shore)

And on DVD:
The Fellowship Of The Ring (extended)
Attack Of The Clones
Babylon 5 Season One
The X-Files Season Six

Expensive month.

DITTO!!!

On Order:

The Prize - Goldsmith
The Travelling Executioner - Goldsmith
Studs Lonigan - Goldsmith
Big - Shore

Not on Order:

SMILLA'S SENSE OF SNOW (Harry Gregson-Williams)
HAMLET (Ennio Morricone)
THE BLACK CAULDRON (Elmer Bernstein; Varese issue)
RAMBLING ROSE (Elmer Bernstein)
EVIL UNDER THE SUN (Cole Porter arr. John Lanchberry)
GOTHIC DRAMAS (TV scores) (Ennio Morricone)

I've cut down a lot! There's not enough to select a CD of the Month, but I've always liked the EVIL UNDER THE SUN score. GOTHIC DRAMAS is very heavy going, and pretty depressing.

NP: TWELFTH NIGHT (Shaun Davey)

Far from Heaven (Elmer Bernstein)
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (John Williams and William Ross)

• Twelfth Night (Shaun Davey)

Thanks to Richard (Street) for pointing out where to get it.

THE SHADOW OF THE WOLF, Jarre - extremely impressive, my God, that theme is phenomenal! The electronic stuff is hit&miss, but all the orchestral material is top notch, what a find!

RUBY CAIRO, Barry - Heard these tracks through Napster two years ago, nice to have them in better sound! It's an underrated Barry score, nice ethnic flavor and addictive theme.

FRIDA, Goldenthal - The film was great and the score worked wonders within it, here on disc the songs take center stage but it's a nice, stripped down score from Goldenthal, far removed from his well-known works. Great guitar work.

WIND, Poeldouris - Again, great thematic material and he melds electronics and orchestral sounds in a compelling way only matched by Goldsmith.

TITAN A.E., Revell - I've only skimmed it, but I like it so far!

NEMESIS, Goldsmith - The action material is wonderfully vigorous and there are some nice, plaintive passages, though it takes a bit to build. It will develop more meaning during subsequent listenings.

and some other wonderful things i can't say.

Amazing score. I love it.

• The Mask of Zorro (James Horner) - my first original (referring to the CD, not the music ) Horner album since Aliens DE.
  
• Old Friends (Simon & Garfunkel 3CD set) - To keep the Bastard satisfied

• The Film Music of Ralph Vaughan Williams, Volume 1 - Seems to be excellent!
