Intrada Soundtrack Forum

Seeing as Intrada has only just started releasing Disney stuff, I think it would be too much to ask for a release of any of the big animated scores at this point. So I think, in order to start venturing into the Disney animation territory, would the scores of the early Disney shows like Ducktales and Talespin, which have been totally unreleased, be a good place to start?

Ducktales certainly has a very entertaining and warm score which Ron Jones recorded with a quite small orchestra and yet produced a really great musical piece! The episodes are available to watch on Youtube in case anyone wants to hear how nice this score is, and a few cues are also on Ron's official website.

Any hope for a release of this thing in the near future?

Yeah, it's great music. His site used to have a nice suite of it available, though last time I checked it was inaccessible.


It was mostly cued up though, lots of the same music can be heard all over the place. I wouldn't be surprised if a full CD could get a good majority of the music.

With the wonderful new release of David Newman's DuckTales: The Movie score, I hope a release of Ron Jones' equally amazing score for the TV series is not too far off. It's such a wonderful musical experience filled with lush sweeping orchestral themes, fun jazzy moments and full of heart, charm, suspense, danger and exciting action moments. Even a release of the 5-part "Treasure of the Golden Suns" pilot episode would be fantastic.

I would love a Duck Tales release, but a complete boxset would be expensive, especially to someone outside North America. It's what has put me off buying big soundtrack boxsets in the past. I'd prefer separate volumes a la Battlestar Galactica and Buck Rogers.

That is definitely the way forward I think.
