    Hello,


    For those that like 1950's horror/sci-fi music, you might be interested in the recently released Fly Trilogy 2 cd set from Percepto Records.

    Listed below is some information of "The Fly Trilogy" 2 cd set from Percepto's website:

    (2 CD set) $29.99
    (99:17) Music from three related 20th Century Fox sci-fi movies.
    THE FLY (1958) contains intelligent, sometimes low key orchestral score (20:51) by Paul Sawtell and Bert Shefter. Emphasis on human elements, love theme. Sparse,
    effective music released in stereo from original elements.

    Second movie RETURN OF THE FLY (1959) features longer, more complex score (40:10) by Sawtell and Shefter. Equal parts suspense, horror. Released in mono.

    Third movie CURSE OF THE FLY (1965) by Shefter alone has rich orchestral score (38:16) recorded in London. Uses themes from original plus new material, enhances
    with larger orchestra, piano. Released in mono.

    Huge 56-page booklet provides lavish still selection, fascinating history of all three films, notes on both composers. Ambitious, winning project from Nick Redman and Taylor White.

    THE FLY / RETURN OF THE FLY / THE CURSE OF THE FLY
    Music by Paul Sawtell & Bert Shefter

    From the hallowed music vaults of 20th Century Fox comes this elaborately
    produced 2-CD set devoted to the classic 1959 chiller THE FLY and its two
    sequels RETURN OF THE FLY and THE CURSE OF THE FLY.

    Each of these scores showcases the efforts of Paul Sawtell and Bert Schefter,
    two of the genre's most versatile collaborators well known for Irwin Allen's
    VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA and THE LOST WORLD, KRONOS
    and THE BLACK SCORPION, and are being released here for the first time
    ever in any format.

    This extravagant limited edition package contains the complete scores to all
    three films, fully restored and digitally remastered, plus a massive 56-page
    booklet featuring exhaustively researched liner notes by noted film historian
    Tom Weaver and film music specialist Randall Larson.

    The booklet also contains a dizzying array of never-before-published
    production photos, rare movie poster art and lobby cards from all over the
    world, pre-release trade ads and showmanship campaigns, a detailed
    pictorial on make-up supervisor Ben Nye and his creation of THE FLY, and
    much more!

    This deluxe double-CD pressing is limited to 3000 copies, so catch the buzz
    before it's too late!

    Dan,

    Oh no. heehee

    Well, this has happened before, hasn't it? (you know, myself bringing up something that was already discussed)
    I had no idea that this was discussed, but I was happy to read that thread you directed me to mainly because I'm pleased with the amount of interest in this set. The Fly Trilogy should be a great set. If anybody has already purchased this and has any thoughts they would like to share, I would love to hear them. Thanks.

    Dylan
