I am thrilled beyond comprehension at this release.

Even after all these years of product being released from the Fox vaults, it is still possible for improbable treasures to be revealed.

I long to hold this CD in my hands and to stroke its spine with my fingers.

:wink:

Intrada iss starting to remble Ron's PERSONAL soundtrack label!

How long Boy On A Dolphin has waited for this! STEREO magnific expandorama, thanks. Just a short wait until I can relax with it flowing through the air.

I went on a bit of a holiday and missed Scorpio, but managed to snag Dolphin. What a drama! If I could only buy when I get a chance to transact.

Having listened to this for about the sixth time, and placing it back on the shelf in the HF area, I find myself in a quandry. I see the Japanese Decca issue that was such a prize and I find myself thinking, "What is that ugly thing? And how shall I ever get rid of it?"

There is another Japanese Decca album of Victor Young's most awesome score for The Brave One. It's in mono too, I don't recall the chances of that getting a super revival are good.

Offer it up to someone who, in the near future, complains about missing out on the title. It's a pretty spectacular mono recording and someone who's never had the music certainly should be able to enjoy it and make do.

Precisely, who's to say that the stereo is better than the mono?
