    I remember Memories of Me from the Varese Delerue compilation. The main theme is outstanding, even by Delerue standards. Flat out gorgeous. Needless to say: ordered!

    Last track on the Delerue CD... quintessential Delerue, love it! R. Kraft's liner notes are great, and he ends it right.... no matter if you ever had the chance to meet Delerue or not, you know the little man by his music. Good stuff.

    Thanks Intrada for delivering, thanks Richard for sharing....

    I recall seeing this film on TV when we were over in St. Louis back in those years(around 86) and I recall the score being by Broughton. Will eventually get this. J.
