Author	Topic: Here we go again...Varese Club on 2/25/08

Bond1965 Standard Userer	This just in at Varese: HERE WE GO! Date: 2/12/2008 Even with 14 CDs already scheduled for release during our first quarter, we've managed to fill 7 more discs with CD Club goodness! A few hours after the last Oscar envelope is opened we'll unveil our first batch of limited editions for 2008 on February 25. And the winner is ... film music fans everwhere! James

PeterK FishChip	I wonder, 7 individual releases, or a couple of multiple CD sets. 7 individual releases seems outta line, so I'll bet on some multi-disc sets in the bunch. Can't wait...

Al Standard Userer	I'm excited to see what surprises they may have up their sleeve. I've played their North by Northwest re-recording more often than any other score since Christmas. Although Navajo Joe is close behind. Plus the announcement gives a clear nod to an expanded 2-CD edition of Elmer Bernstein's score for Oscar... Ha. I kill me.

tjguitar Standard Userer	it seems early for varese club. Wasn't the last one in november? But ok. Here's hoping it's not some holy grail, cause I can't afford it if it is.

franz_conrad Standard Userer	From the wording of the release, sounds like some unreleased Oscar nominated scores are coming our way.

nuts_score Standard Userer	I ate lunch with Bob Townson today; he spilled the beans. Now, if all of you donate $5 to my PayPal account I'll gladly share the information on a live webcast on February 26th at 9PM Eastern. Thanks in advance!

franz_conrad Standard Userer	Franz with sunglasses = (a). Franz is perfectly serious; (b). Franz is literally wearing sunglasses while posting; (c). Franz understands the history of message board responses to Varese Club announcements, and knows very well that the language of Varese's PR has almost nothing to do with the content of the releases, but he thought he'd crack a joke anyway.

nuts_score Standard Userer	Yo, dude, what kind of shades do you wear when you post these radical posts, huh dude?

Al Standard Userer	Are those sunglasses or double eye patches?

Or maybe it's just because the Oscar ceromony just finished a few hours before. My guess would be: - 3 old scores (< 1970) - 3 70's-80's scores - 1 more recent score All in all, I'll probably be interested in 2-3 releases.

tjguitar Standard Userer	I highly doubt there will be 7 new releases.

Christian K�hn Standard Userer	Oh, the woes of the intellectually proper, Michael! (Something along those lines...trying to get German catchphrases into English is an art...)
