You are incorrect, In my experience, you are a CLUELESS FANBOY.. You've proven that to me time and again to me. Uhm... and why should I, or anyone else, care about what you think? I, nor anyone else, have anything to prove to you (of all people). I can prove to a giraffe that the world is round. So what? Get my drift? You're hardly as important as you seem to think of yourself. And as for being clueless... instead of being an backpain toward clueless fanboys like myself, enlighten us, oh mighty one. Without the condescending tone, please. In the view of one rather bitter fanboy, the odd thing is that when some of folks who write this stuff listen to the same recordings, they tend to not share your views, but god forbid that they disagree with DINKO. Hey, disagree with me all you want. You're still not going to change the fact that up until a couple of years ago, the worst BBC Philharmonic recording was played ten times better than the best City of Prague recording. Try comparing William Alwyn's The Crimson Pirate... I suspect that if you to be told that the recording was by the CROUCH END choir and in fact it was by the Czech chorus, you'd just piss on it, because you just couldn't tell the differnce, except by the credit on the album. Not everyone's ears are as thickly obstructed as yours. If you're unable to differentiate a performance by the Philadelphia Orchestra from one by the Portsmouth Sinfonia, it's not my problem.

The City of Prague orchestra performances of film music have improved a great deal over the years. To not recognise the difference in strength of performance, whatever the reason for it, seems to show no respect for that learning curve. So in that respect, I agree with twin Dinko. I used to find it hard to express a lot of enthusiasm for a new re-recording, but the Tadlow releases to date leave no doubt about the progress that's been made.

Rest assured, Mr Fitzpatrick has done his preparatory homework on this project well beyond the expectations of all those who love this Rozsa score. I have no doubt that this will a spectacular release and the definitive issue of this long-awaited masterwork.

*sirens* Heeere comes the STPD. I think some people here go overboard in their anti-negativism quests. Being offended or mad on behalf of somebody else doesn't make any sense to me, unless you're some sort of paid political spokesperson/operative. James Fitzpatrick seems able to defend himself just fine on his own.

As I've said several times, this is my favorite Rozsa score, and I am very much looking forward to this release! Mr. Fitzpatrick, will this 'DVD formatted' disc indeed have Advanced Resolution tracks on it? This prospect is making me quite excited as well.
