Well, since I work on a pretty tight budget as I have most of my life, I can only get a few at a time, unlike some of you rich folks. LOL>here are some I intend to get one day Enforcer-Fielding
several Rozsas
Spellbound, new Quo Vadis, Sherlock Holmes, etc. and some of the FSMs I dont have yet, I have gotten several of those over the last few years Snakes on a Plane by Rabin
Flyboys-Rabin
Constantine-Badelt and Tyler
Burbs new issue
new Wind and Lion
Lots, lots more. Recent purchases include: Several Norths-Les Miserables, All Fall Down and Outrage from FSM
Goldsmtih-several more, now have 196 CDs on him.
Newman-Essential from Silva-mixed results but some very good
also got his themes that is being reissued on Citadel shortly
T. Jones Dark Crystal
the Addison themes on Chandos-pretty good
and some other stuff. J.

There's sometimes a danger in prioritizing. Anyone who put off geting the Ronald Stein box set from Percepto never will. It was yanked.

Back in April I started a spreadsheet of all of my wants. I have them "prioritized" in my head, but I don't think I'd be too upset if most of them OOP before I bought them. I guess I'm hitting the law of diminishing returns. I find these days that I'm having a harder and harder time finding "new" scores I really like. Too much stuff I buy and then listen once or twice before I go back to listening to the old standbys that I have loved for years. A few times a year I still get surprised, though, most recently by Poledouris' "Cherry 2000." I know orchestra + 1980s synth music isn't for everybody, but his themes are so infectious for this one. Even the Hungarian State Opera Orchestra puts in a surprisingly good performance for this score, with a nice recording by Eric Tomlinson. [Message edited by jonathan_little on 08-31-2007]

There's still quite a few scores I need to buy. After March 2008 I plan on buying the rest of my "to get" list. IF they're out of print I'll resort to ebay or the Amazon Marketplace. Either way I'll get em'.  I too hate having not enough money for everything I want.

The Ronald Stein box set is once again avilable at Percepto, but only for a limited time. Act now!

Well, yeah, but money is a factor too. I've gotten most of what I wanted eventually. I am very patient. J.
