I keep a running list of movies on my computer that people say have good
scores. I never look for nor buy a score if I haven’t heard it first, not because I
need to see it within the context of a movie, but because tastes vary so much. I’ve
bought scores on others’ recommendations and played them only once. I remember
recommending Conan to a friend, and he bought it and hated it. Oops. If I get a
score that I haven’t heard through a trade, and I don’t care for it, I don’t feel like
it has been a waste of money. However, I will buy a score from a movie I haven’t
seen if I like the clips posted.Here is just part of my list of movies I wish I could find at a video/DVD store so I
could hear their scores.Ring of Bright Water, Until September, Seven Cities of Gold, In Love and War,
Stairway to Heaven, A Time to Love and a Time to Die, Night Passage, The
Outlanders, The Miracle, Yellow Sky, Nostromo, Search for Paradise, Green
Dolphin Street, Story of 3 Loves, Tarzen and the Mermaids, The Man, The
Out Riders, Trinity and Beyond, Providence, and Adventures of a Young Man.A lot of these are older movies, and my local stores don’t have much in the
classics section. Thank goodness for TCM.posted 08-21-2003 02:30 PM PT (US)

Joan, given the BBC adaptation of Nostromo sank without a trace (despite starring Colin Firth/Mr. Darcy!), you're unlikely to see that soon, which is a shame given it was the best work that production house had done. But if you see the score - you might want to take advantage of that opportunity. If you like Ennio Morricone's work on The Mission, imagine that score being a little less liturgical and choral and a little more romantic with extensive work-outs for an unnamed female soprano. Also if you've ever heard I Guardiani del Cielo by Morricone, the unique brass performance in track 4 is given a more satisfactory development in Nostromo.
As for what I'd most like to hear....
From Goldenthal: Othello, Fire Water Paper. From Elfman: Somersby, Batman Returns, Black Beauty,Planet of the Apes.
From Barry: Lion in Winter, Robin and Marian.
From Goldsmith: Under Fire (I've only got the excellent suite recorded for The Omen compilation), Masada (same deal), Medicine Man, Russia House, Powder.
From Morricone: Canone Inverso.
From Corigliano: Revolutions, Altered States. (These are all films I haven't seen by the way.)
From Delerue: just about anything really, but Agnes of God, though I haven't heard it, I would pay a very high price for.NP Solo Piano (Glass)

For those who know me, these are nothing new hehe. Plus, they're a tad generic, but hey...-Back To The Future
-Alien
-Star Trek II Expanded
-Conan Complete or Re-Recorded by Poledouris
-Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom/Last Crusade *complete*
-Die Another Day *complete*
This is purely frivolous...but I'd love to see an all orchestral re-record of Hoosiers/Best Shot. I LOVE the original, but an orchestra could provide a really interesting interpretation.NP-The Rocketeer (Horner)

Mom Joan, you really should check out John Barry's score to Until September, it's superb and doesn't rely on repitition, this score is chock full of great melodies...just check out 'Main Titles', He Catches Her', 'Candlelight' (my favorite) and 'One More Time' (one of the most sexy erotic tracks I've ever heard in film scoring), some beautifully colourful orchestration (flugelhorn, sax, guitar...both electric and acoustic) this score is a true gem!...and as if this isn't enough, it's twinned with the 'James Bond soundish' STARCRASH, quite possibly one of the crappest films ever made

Oh damn, I got a big list of this, but I will lower it to it's basics:Any rejected score.
I put that on top, cause scores that were used in movies ... at least we got to hear those.
Lately I have been re-discovering Revell's The 13th Worrior, much to my ears' delight.
