Intrada Soundtrack Forum

Why (except for the lovely INTRADA release of Fright Night) is this composer so ignored?
Except for his Terminator scores and True Lies, almost nothing is released from him on CD
(Johnny Pneumonic wasn´t his finest hour I agree)
Let´s Get Harry
The Accused
Fright Night 2
Striking Distance
Gladiator (the true score to this movie)
Serpent and the Rainbow
Night School
Just Before Dawn
and ofcourse the complete remastered scores of both Terminator movies which has halfassed releases (pardon my French)

Is this composer totally "outdated" or is someone investigating something interesting here.
Wasn´t his great score to Gladiator available when Goldsmiths rejected was looked upon?
A sadly missed opportunity or wasn´t it considered a "sellable" (is this a word??) score

Interesting that Fright Night and Gladiator are the current CDs on Intrada's chopping block, or were they announced for elimination prior to your post?

I imagine that The Serpent and the Rainbow might be with Varese, as they released it at the time of the film's release. If that is the case, maybe they'll quickly slap together an Encore edition of it.

Well, I've put in my order for both Fright Night and Jerry's unused score for Gladiator. I don't know why nobody talks about him so much these days, but no composer should be under-appreciated, like that.

Well I purchased a composer promo of his score for a made for television movie called Purgatory and it's about the most god awful thing I've ever listened to.

I would like to see PURGATORY released.
Cool music!!!!

I really like this theme which I believe is the main theme.
It starts at 1:00 and in the end titles at 18:16

So,
Is Fiedel's GLADIATOR a definite possibility now?
Now that I have the other 2 discs, I'll get it for sure!
