INTRADA Announces: MEMORIES OF ME Music Composed and Conducted by GEORGES DELERUE INTRADA Special Collection Volume 98 The 1988 MGM film Memories of Me is a simple story of a complicated relationship, chronicling the reunion and reconciliation of a father and son. Dr. Abbie Polin (Billy Crystal) is a successful New York heart surgeon estranged from his dad Abe (Alan King), who ekes out a living as a bit player and extra in Hollywood. Abbie jokes his way through his practice, and through his relationship with his girlfriend Lisa (JoBeth Williams) but the laughs are clearly covering up his unhappiness. And when the doctor suffers a mild heart attack, he realizes that it’s time to make his peace with his father. However, the self-proclaimed “King of the Hollywood Extras” is even more of a performer offstage than on, making Abbie’s hoped-for reconciliation tougher than he anticipated... No composer working at the time was better suited to capture the melancholy, yet hopeful yearing of the film's characters. That composer is none other than Georges Delerue, and his score for Memories of Me is as charming, spirited and subtly complex as the composer himself. A score that is part orchestral, part jazz, this little gem from Delerue's gorgeous body of '80s work is brief, yet potent. Remixed and mastered from the original multi track units at MGM, this release is limited to 1000 copies and features liner notes by Richard Kraft, reflecting on his own experiences as fan, agent, and friend of Delerue. INTRADA Special Collection - Volume 98 Retail Price: 19.99 AVAILABLE NOW For track listing and sound samples, please visit http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.6147/.f |

WON-DER-FULL ! I wanted this one since I discovered it in The London Sessions Volume 3. The Suite from Memories of Me touched my heart very deeply. Oh boy, Delerue was a master of melody... |

It is my opinion that this is Intrada's greatest rescue from the MGM vaults. I've been playing this score on and off ever since I first got the CD, and I've been hearing it again yesterday and today. This music still chokes me up and my eyes fill with tears... every single time. Thank you, Intrada. So very much. |
