Quite curious about the final track on Disc 3 of Wyatt Earp - 'It's A Boy/JNH Speech'. I've heard a recording of a speech he made to his team after the final recording session for King Kong. Wonder if this is a similar thing. Can anyone shed any light on this? Cheers. --------- During the recording, JNH's wife/partner gave birth to his son. He left the sessions for two days and his good friend Randy Newman took over. I'm assuming 'It's A Boy' is when the musicians and crew were told the news. Before recording the final cue, JNH made a speech thanking everyone for their work over the three weeks of the recording and saying what a special time it had been for him. He got loud applause. Tim Burden did an interview with James Newton Howard recently. I've heard an exerpt on Facebook and the speech iwas included at the end.

Hey, Wyatt Earp question for MV: You've talked about how early 90s elements can be problematic to locate and use, did this one have any such problems? Just curious. Thank you for your time. Nope, not on this one. Over the past few years we have been fortunate enough to work with various studios and composers who have taken the time (and money) to locate all these elements, transfer them over and have them easily at anyone's disposal (even some of the time we are the ones footin' the bill!). Composers like Mr. Zimmer, Mr. Howard and Mr. Silvestri pretty much have their entire library in house now. It also helps when you have wonderful "keepers of the grail" at the studios who help keep all this amazing stuff up to date and easy to find. Guys like Chris Mangione at Warners and Nick Redman at Fox are the unsung heroes in this business. However, there are times when stuff just goes missing. One project we just completed contains 99% of incredible sounding music, but that last 1% had to come from the music stems so we can make that project "whole." The 1990's was a strange decade indeed.

I for one can't really notice much difference between the 'bad' tracks on your release and the rest of the score, and I'm usually pretty picky about sound quality. No, not as extreme as Hook. Just one or two tracks, but Mike Matessino worked his magic and it still sounds great, at least to our ears and the composers. MV
