Wow. April is 3 days old, and you all already got tons of new scores!Thor, is your "Great Train Robbery" new or used? If it's new, any hints on where I could find it? Thanks!

All I've got for the past couple weeks is the FSM TAKE A HARD RIDE. I'm expecting a big package shortly, but until it arrives, will not divulge its contents. (I'm superstitious that way. If something good is about to happen, then I tend to wreck it by mentioning it. Wait, I just did. Oh God, I can be so stupid.)NP: TWISTER suite on Varese's "Towering Inferno and Other Disater Classics." I didn't much like this movie, and thought I didn't like the score, but the suite is starting to grow on me. Big, merry Copland/Williams type stuff. Perhaps they just picked the best moments for this rerecording -- I definitely thought the score in the film was overdone, my favorite part was the end title "Respect the Wind" which isn't Mancina's. (The only other Mancina title I own is CON AIR, which I like a lot. Partly Rabin, I know, but still fun.)

Actually, Marian, I'm cheating a bit. Several of the aforementioned scores were received in march, but I put them here instead of the feb/mar thread because it's now april!
THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY is a CD-R of the original LP.

damn this thing is a cool score. I love tracks 13 and on. menacing choral stuff, and Sumi Jo just adds to it, making sure not to make herself heard, but to blend with the orchestra. Love the rhythm of the choir and orchestra.

Whoa! Some of you have really long lists. I usually don't reply to these threads because I usually don't have the adquisitive power to buy that many CD's at a time, but last March was the exception, I broke my record buying three new CD's:*SUPERMAN expanded
*SCHINDLER'S LIST: THE CLASSIC SCORES OF JOHN WILLIAMS(Paul Bateman/City of Prague Phil)
*OUT OF THIS WORLD(John Williams/The Boston Pops)On the Paul Bateman CD there's a concert vesion for one of the best love themes ever: "Han Solo and the Princess" which I've never heard and haven't been able to find it anywhere, John Williams hasn't even recorded it, I think. The bad thing about it is my CD player won't play any CDs at all.

Do these exist on CD?Don't know about "Tess", but I've got "Pirates" on CD. It's on Milan, CD CH233 (made in Switzerland), but maybe there's a different release in the US. The titles are in French, but it looks like it's the same as the LP release - it says "Face A" and "Face B" on the back.

Very nice score, by the way, with one of the best mysterious themes ever!

Hard Target (finally!!)DVD:
Storm Chasers: Revenge of the TwisterNP: Miami Vice - "Title Theme" Long version (From a CD I bought back in 1995 called Music For Spies and Detectives, by some off-the-wall company. Never heard of another CD by them, and have never seen, heard, or read about this anywhere before or after I bought it. Also includes Lalo Schifrin's original Mission: Impossible theme, the one that was rejected in favor for the now-classic one, which was originally composed for an episode's car chase. The original's not bad. Not as good as the one we're all familiar with now, but certainly enjoyable. Actually, portions of it show up from time to time in Bullitt)

Just in:* WILD, WILD WEST (Bernstein):
A highly enjoyable score with all the Bernsteins involved (Elmer, Peter, Emilie).
* INSTINCT (Elfman):
Complex as always with Danny's recent scores, but this one has some interesting percussive effects (Elfman spent several years in Africa, so he should know).
* THE BLUE LAGOON (Poledouris):
Laidback and exotic. An example of Poledouris' extreme versatility.
* CITIZEN KANE (Herrmann, McNeely version):
I've been quite harsh to Bennie's music over the years, but this one caught my liking. Maybe I've reached a turning-point in my relationship to this composer?
* THE HAUNTING (Goldsmith):
Not exactly revolutionizing film music, but has certain highlights (such as the carousel piece).
* SUPERMAN (Williams, 2CD, Rhino):
A flawless and superb release of the classic score. Minor quibbles, though: lack of track timings, booklet which does not fit in jewel case and too many versions of "Can you read my mind".
