Intrada Soundtrack Forum

I've heard that Intrada tried to find the master tapes for this, without success. Apart from the U.K., the only other LP release I can recall was in Australia for Ava and Susan's Records back in the 1980's. It might be worthwhile to contact Barry Stahl (now retired). As it stands, this may be the most unearthly score ever penned by the Maestro. On the one occasion the music makes an ethnic concession to the movie's Greek setting, the result sounds like a psychopathic version of "Zorba's Dance!" Many consider the movie itself pretentious, I think it's fascinating. If by some miracle the master tapes for the album can be located, there would still be room on the CD for another little known Barry score owned by Universal Music, THE PUBLIC EYE (a.k.a. FOLLOW ME). Neither albums have ever had a U.S. release. (The one jarring thing about the original BOOM! album is the inclusion of the vocal "Hideaway", just about the only element it seems retained from the rejected John Dankworth score.)
