What, where's the love for Eraser? Tremendous album, really , some great furious action writing. Nice package too, a thick booklet, lots to pour over. Oh, I'm definitely loving it here. This has been a favorite action score of mine ever since it first came out, and I'm very excited to now have an expanded version with some of my favorite unreleased moments now included. I got it this afternoon, put it on immediately, and cranked it up! Nobody quite does action like Alan Silvestri. Yummm, Caroline Munro, THE sci-fi-babe-a-licious! Ooooohhhhh..... There's always time for Caroline Munro. I especially love her as the ill-fated Naomi in The Spy Who Loved Me. "Yummm" indeed.

Golden Voyage was running on cable a couple of years ago and my wife was doing housework, walking in and out of the living room as various scenes with Caroline Munro were playing. Finally she just stopped and stared and after a while said "Who is THAT?" I just got my copy of DRAGONSLAYER - a beautiful release that does justice to a great score at last. Your notes are great, too, Jeff - but please tell me that you really DO know how to spell "Rozsa"!

Dragonslayer's a revelation after the I-wish-I'd-known-it-was-a-boot I spent so many years chasing. How are we sure it was a boot? I know MV noted as much, but wasn't the CD also on Southern Cross, a legit company producing licensed soundtracks?

FYI, PARAMOUNT PICTURES confirm to Mr. Gerhard that the LASHER CD release was a bootleg, because he only had LP RIGHTS to this title and those rights expired long b before the his CD release was issued. They would be the most informed source on this matter. Ford A. Thaxton

But one thing is unclear to me: If paramount knew for such a long time that the previous cd was a boot, how come they did not take legal action against the producer or the label? I mean, its not like Lasher operated in the shadow. From what i read here, he must have been a relatively well-known record producer back then.

You must remember that when this release happened, it was long before we had websites,email,etc... It was off the grind and not on PARAMOUNT's radar and no one really made a issue of it. And the time for anyone to really sue is long past as well. That's life. Ford A. Thaxton

I received "Dragonslayer" yesterday (ordered from FSM) -- and, oh my god, the improvement in sound is amazing. The sonics are truly spectacular -- revealing layers in the score that I may have heard before but never truly appreciated. It is such insinuating, sinuous music -- with slinking strings and curling, coiling rythyms. An amazing score -- always one of my all-time favorites -- now made even more beautiful in its lustrous, gleaming modernity. Thank you La La Land and all involved.

Any chance we might be able to get some of those big scans of these covers? Dragonslayer in particular looks quite stunning.
