Is this freakin' thing ever coming out?    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 1:53 AM     By:   The Juggler   (Member) Yes, it's coming.    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 2:35 AM     By:   johnbijl   (Member) Yes, it's coming. How do you know? Last time I heard, there wasn't any movement at al.    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 7:13 AM     By:   observant observer   (Member) It's rumoured to be coming out on the Perseverance Records label, possibly with Copelands part 2 and Robinson's part 3. Last I heard Robin was trying to get dates sorted with Brian May of Queen to discuss (possible Queen music?) but that was the end of last year. Although Perseverance do keep touting a holy grail is getting nearer to completion....    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 10:59 AM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) Been waiting almost 30 years now. At this point I don't care if the Queen music is in the collection. Apart from their version of "New York, New York", just about all their work in it is commercially available. It's Kamen's work in it that is strongly wanted. I hope whatever Perseverance edition might be forthcoming is not just a clone of the Edel edition.    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 12:23 PM     By:   groovemeister   (Member) And if the sound quality is near to that of 'Rain Man' and 'Red Sonja', i think i'll pass ! Wasn't Queen's 'Don't Lose Your Head' instrumental in the movie, it has been a long time since i've seen it. What would really interest me is a 'Flash Gordon' proper soundtrack, with Howard Blake's and Queen's score tracks, without dialogue.    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 12:43 PM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) Wasn't Queen's 'Don't Lose Your Head' instrumental in the movie, it has been a long time since i've seen it. I think you're right. And I think it's that same piece that morphs into the "New York" bit.    Posted:   Aug 2, 2014 - 2:20 PM     By:   The Juggler   (Member) The New York New York cover by Queen is not a full song. They only recorded what you hear on screen. Supposedly, it's going to be on the upcoming release.    Posted:   Aug 3, 2014 - 2:30 AM     By:   spook   (Member) Been waiting almost 30 years now. At this point I don't care if the Queen music is in the collection. Yep, can't believe it's been that long as it's always been a possibility of appearing but never actually happened. This remains my 'Holy Grail' as just about every other wish list score I always hoped for has appeared over the years. I know folk could argue that the existing compilation version is enough ( Thor?) but it's really a tremendous score when you hear the whole thing. Some wonderful action music is there in the Final battle moments along with many unreleased gems throughout the film. It would be great to have the Queen stuff but I agree with you that it's a bit frustrating that it's probably their elements that have held up a release and that stuff is pretty much out there already.    Posted:   Aug 3, 2014 - 3:34 AM     By:   Tom Maguire   (Member) Picked up the BluRay of this recently from Amazon for pennies. Really good presentation.    Posted:   Aug 3, 2014 - 4:46 AM     By:   Francis   (Member) As it's an iconic Michael Kamen score, purchased immediately upon release.    Posted:   Aug 3, 2014 - 12:46 PM     By:   The Beach Bum   (Member) It's Kamen's work in it that is strongly wanted. I hope whatever Perseverance edition might be forthcoming is not just a clone of the Edel edition. I agree. But I have a sinking feeling that, knowing Perseverance, it will just be the Edel CD program with Queen songs added. While I wouldn't mind having the film version of "Who Wants To Live Forever (with the more orchestral middle section), more of Kamen's score cues are what I want the most.    Posted:   Aug 4, 2014 - 2:14 AM     By:   spook   (Member) It's Kamen's work in it that is strongly wanted.

While I wouldn't mind having the film version of "Who Wants To Live Forever (with the more orchestral middle section), more of Kamen's score cues are what I want the most. Surely not. After all this time I think there would be a backlash from fans if that was it. It's the Michael Kamen fans that want this. The Queen fans already have pretty much what they're be looking for with the 'Kinda Magic ' album.    Posted:   Aug 4, 2014 - 5:26 AM     By:   wayfarer_1969   (Member) Wasn't Queen's 'Don't Lose Your Head' instrumental in the movie, it has been a long time since i've seen it. I think you're right. And I think it's that same piece that morphs into the "New York" bit. Didn't that track form part of the B-Side to A Kind of Magic; "A Dozen Red Roses for My Love"?    Posted:   Aug 5, 2014 - 5:58 AM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) Didn't that track form part of the B-Side to A Kind of Magic; "A Dozen Red Roses for My Love"? You're right. I keep forgetting that. It's essentially the same recording as "Don't Lose Your Head", but with some differences in the mix. It seems to me that "A Dozen Red Roses" is closer to that which appears in the film.    Posted:   Aug 5, 2014 - 6:41 AM     By:   LeHah   (Member) But I have a sinking feeling that, knowing Perseverance, it will just be the Edel CD program with Queen songs added. And this fear is based on...?    Posted:   Aug 5, 2014 - 7:56 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) I think there would be lynchings from nearby trees if they just duplicated the 20 minutes from the Edel release. I trust and suspect Perseverance know what we want and will deliver...in time (thank you Regan).    Posted:   Aug 5, 2014 - 8:38 AM     By:   Ny   (Member) getting psyched over here, hope it's coming soon.    Posted:   Aug 6, 2014 - 8:11 AM     By:   wayfarer_1969   (Member) Didn't that track form part of the B-Side to A Kind of Magic; "A Dozen Red Roses for My Love"?

It seems to me that "A Dozen Red Roses" is closer to that which appears in the film. You're right, with added syth car horn sounds dopplering as the Kurgan drives.     General Discussion: Highlander?    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
