In very related news, we are happy to announce that La-La Land Records will be releasing a 2-CD remastered and expanded LADYHAWKE soundtrack in 2014!
And don't forget to watch our Facebook page Midnight, Nov 28, to find out what our end-of-year Dec 3rd releases will be!
Me too. Andrew Powell's orchestrations for Alan Parsons and Al Stewart were always tremendous. Ladyhawke has been OOP and hard (expensive) to find for a long time. Needless to say, I'm in!
That's a great score. GNP Crescendo expanded it well and remastered superbly. Looking forward to see and hear what the 2nd disc will have.
Yeah, I wondered that, too. What is missing? I have both the original release (as an LP to CD) and the GNP Crescendo expanded release. Regardless of what else them come out with, it'll be an instant buy for me.
No date yet, but LLL stated last year that it might be in the first quarter, 2014. No Guarantees is their new motto since the dates are up to the studios.
Anyone else have a release date? I'm all over this one like a duck on a june bug! Seriously, it's one of my nostalgic favorites. I finally managed to track down a semi-affordable CD a couple of years ago, which was great. Unfortunately it lacks one of my favorite small cues, the one with the military drums where Navarre is riding to the cathedral to confront the Bishop. I'm hugely looking forward to an expanded score that has this tidbit as well. Oddball piece of trivia -- the main title theme was used by Sportscenter's NFL show for highlight clips back in the early or mid-90s. This is a movie that highly deserves to be remade -- although I would go with a more conventional soundtrack this time. The central plot point is a brilliantly simple concept.
I'd be delighted to get some news on what Powell is working on these days (beyond the masters of this, obviously). He's kind of faded off the scene after this score and the Alan Parsons days.
I am anticipating this release with great interest. Since I missed the previous cd from GNP- This will be true revelation. This should be around the corner if all formalities have been closed.
while waiting for LLL's upcoming release, i picked up the recently-released japan reissue of the original 14-track program on cd. it's on warner/atlantic's budget cheapie series. it appears to be an almost-identical port of the original LP, but i'm curious as to what master was used...it sounds pretty good regardless.
yes, i have the genoa b**t, and the GNP expanded, and bought this out of sheer curiousity. one of my favorite scores, so pretty cool to add to the ol' collection
