Why is the Seibel recording so bad, apart from the single track edit?
People can choose among:
Sabu and the Victor Symphony Orchestra,
Leo Genn and the Frankenland State SO,
Elmar Gunsch and the Nuremberg (Seibel)
The Nuremburg minus narration,
The 'Song of the Jungle' with the NPO,
A Varese short edit of part of the Seibel,
The acetate box OST recordings from FMS,
the Chandos BBC Phil suite.
A Spanish member of the Miklos Rozsa Society recorded a choral/orchestral version of the mother's song which can be heard on the sound pages of the Miklos Rozsa site. That site has ALL recordings listed for both concert and film works as downloadable PDf files.
For 'Thief of Baghdad':
The DVD MFX tracks,
The Elmer Bernstein RPO album (FSM),
The Nuremberg SO Varese/Colosseum orchestral suite,
The same suite with German narration read by Elmar Gunsch,
The Frankenland State SO suite with Leo Genn narrating (stereo in the UK),
The Polydor RPO 'Short Suite' (containing nothing from the published suite),
The NPO Gerhardt 'Love of the Princess',
Several movements from the orchestral suite on Silva with the Prague Phil,
The Chandos BBC Phil suite.
These sweeping statements re some recordings as 'rubbish' are simply not substantiated. ALL the above recordings are very good, given the era of their recording. Not one performance listed above could be called bad.
But it's Sunday, and people have nothing to do. There's a world to conquer out there, but people have nothing to do.
