A Delerue score! Order placed! It took me a little longer than it ought to have, because I was playing the samples of David and Bathseba, to see if I would include it in my order instead of another CD (the cart was all ready to go through checkout). In the end, I decide to leave the Newman score aside; better let someone who really wants it have it; I love The Robe and other such Newman scores, but this one did not thrill me enough to order it. I did start playing the first track from Sherlock Holmes in New York, but the first ten seconds were enough to confirm my intuition. As for Delerue's The Pick-Up Artist, two seconds were enough (just to make sure, but the description was clear enough). What a wonderful composer Delerue was! I adore all his melancholy scores; it's such divinely beautiful music! I'm playing those tracks now, just for the pleasure. Congratulations & thanks again, Intrada! (Thanks for making it Global Priority again, Jeff ![]() ![]() - PS - I played three of my four new CDs while waiting for this announcement; I would just have had time to play Lost-- Season Two as well, but I wanted to be sure to be ready to listen to the samples. Anyway: Saturn 3 is splendid! Surely not for everyone, and certainly not beginners; like []Star Trek-- The Motion Picture[/b], it's not the sort of thing I would have enjoyed much 10 years ago (and I absolutely love STTMP now). Saturn 3 is great; the Hector cues in particular are wonderful, whether in mysterioso mode or in deep thumping mode; very nice love theme too. ![]() |

I hate to "poo-poo" this release, as it is nice to finally have these two scores available, but my complaint here is more or less targeted towards these types of releases where we have more than one composer represented on a CD. I can partly understand trying meet a certain time constraint or budget, which may or may not be part of the reason to couple two scores together, but why do they have to be by two separate composers? As a collector it frustrates me to no end to have to think about how I would catalogue this CD in my collection, as two composers appear on the release means that I have to decide on "one" (My collection is Alphabetical - 10,000 and counting). I would much rather see either two Delerue scores, or two by Richard Rodney Bennett, on one CD. I know that some of this requires timing by the powers that be and that maybe two Delerue scores weren't available at the time, but I would much rather wait until that be the case. It seems to be a popular choice these days to produce CDs this way. Why PATTON had to be released with FLIGHT OF THE PHOENIX and not with another Goldsmith score is beyond me and I guess that's how I feel about this release, as I see no correlation with THE PICK UP ARTIST and SHERLOCK HOLMES at all, beside that they are both well written scores by great composers. Maybe I'm off here, as releasing good music is, after all, what it's all about, right? ~ Scorehead |

This issue comes up regularly and while I can relate to concerns about keeping a large CD collection organized it seems to me to be a relatively minor beef. I mean, would you REALLY rather not have this CD released at all because you have to make a decision about whether to put it under "B" or "D"? ![]() Ten years ago if someone were to tell you that soundtrack collectors in the future would be complaining about this sort of thing in the face of all the fantastic music we're inundated with every month they'd probably drop their teeth if they believed you at all. Still, free country and all, right? ![]() |
