This was a time where you could have Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, James Horner, Danny Elfman and Philip Glass nominated for best original score all together ! And this was a night that could see James Horner win it all, best score and best song! John Williams was still there yesterday night, though he didn't win... |

Sure wish I could have been around at that time. But I don't know if I'd be more disappointed living through such fruitful years in film scores in the 1990s and looking at film scores now, or like I am now, having grown up in the era of Remote Control and Trent Reznor. Ah well, still got a couple Elfman and Powell scores to look forward to this year. |

Well, think back - or imagine - you are watching the Oscar nominations being read for the "Best Original Score of 1962": Maurice Jarre: Lawrence Of Arabia (the winner) Elmer Bernstein: To Kill A Mockingbird Jerry Goldsmith: Freud Franz Waxman: Taras Bulba Bronislau Kaper: Mutiny On The Bounty Wow! For fans of the sixties scoring scene, it just couldn't get any better. There isn't a single slacker in the bunch!! --Doug |

Ah, the sixties! Just look at the following year: Cleopatra - Alex North 55 Days At Peking - Dimitri Tiomkin How The West Was Won - Alfred Newman It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World - Ernest Gold Tom Jones - John Addison - the winner! And classic scores like: The Great Escape - Elmer Bernstein & Jason & The Argonauts - Bernard Herrmann, didn't even get nominated! Those really were the days. |

The 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s all had at least one truly amazing year in film scoring with overwhelming excellence. There are many unsung Hollywood scores that weren't even nominated throughout the decades, but I don't need the Academy to tell me what scores perfectly captured the essence of a film and/or were truly innovative. |

Thanks for mentioning it...... WHO IS GOING TO RELEASE THE COMPLETE SCORE FOR OBSESSION?!?!?! DOUG! You've obviously looked at this thread, can't you PLEASE shed SOME kind of light as to why this has yet to be released? Certainly you must know SOMETHING!!!! With the possible exception of Voyage of the Damned(And those few bits from The Omen), ALL of those scores have been released in their COMPLETE form! ONLY OBSESSION has yet to receive this treatment! I would just like to know why. |

Anakin....actually, Herrmann was nominated TWICE for his first TWO scores, and then twice for his LAST two scores. Would've been nice if he had won - albeit posthumously - for OBSESSION!!!!! |

1976 was indeed some year for Hollywood film scores. Aside from the fantastic scores nominated, there's Carrie (my personal favorite from that year), Rocky and King Kong, as well as the underappreciated scores for Marathon Man, Family Plot, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, Murder by Death, The Big Bus and The Enforcer. Not bad at all! |

WELL..... it would appear that Obsession is a TABOO subject, because whenever anyone ever mentions wanting a complete version, the thread in which it's mentioned slowly goes away. Can't understand WHY it's a taboo subject! |

I rest my case! Someone is trying to get this thread that mentions Obsession deleted!
