I just startled myself. I had always loved my original CD of Goldsmith's "The Blue Max," and was just one keystroke away from placing my order for the new 2-CD set at SAE. But then I went to my iTunes and tried to play some of the cues and realized that, as had happened a few months ago when I tried to play it, that I no longer had as much affection for the music as I once did. So even though this is obviously a wonderful labor of love and will surely and deservedly sell out, I left the SAE site without finalizing the order. Obviously my loss.

Everybody should reconsider from time to time his preferences and stick to it. I do that as well. I have three Blue Max editions in my collection (Varèse, Sony, Intrada) and I will add the new one, too.

SAE should add a watermelon to their inventory and if you order it, it should be a total surprise! That's actually a really funny idea. Ed!

R M Eastman: Yes, your loss, but why brag about it! so nice that you feel it's so important to share with us that you aren't purchasing this item and yet have the free time to post about it. Ron - thanks for the story, always interesting to know people's motivation for buying or not buying. Don't pay any attention to the above - I suspect he was getting some fun out of quoting Ford from earlier in the thread. After all, after stating on the Desplat - Master Composer thread "I have yet to hear a Desplat score that I really liked", he'd be opening himself up to another Ford favourite epithet - Hypocrite. TG

I listened to clips from THE BLUE MAX. Sounds great, especially "The Lonely Victor". Can't wait to get this one in my mailbox.
