Listening agin one can't help but notice that this is really a score for jazz combo and symphony orchestra! The lps list arrangers for nearly every track so this was probably very much a cooperative effort between jerry and the musicians! brm

The Varese release of the original scores are ancient history really. Sixteen years old & nothing like complete, & with a poor mix. The stereo isolated music on the Blu-ray was prepared by Mike Matessino, sounds great & is complete (it has that groovy intro music). I was hoping for a two-fer CD from Varese with both scores complete & re-mixed, but it could be a long wait, only one old score released so far this year, & it's nearly October. Still waiting on Intrada for the LP's, but they're working on it, & who knows how things are going with UMG, it'll come. Since Varese Sarabande "Jumped the Shark" quite some time ago, I wonder just how remote a possibility it is that there will ever be a Flint re-release (and done right).

To the people who continue to kvetch about the mix: In the Sixties mixing techniques were different. Jazz combos would record with baffles so that each instrument did not 'bleed' into the others. Thus each instrument had a clean sound when it came to re-mixing. Stereo was still fairly new and record companies liked to show that audiences were getting true stereo sound. So, mixes , often discrete in the extreme, sound 'off" to modern ears. Also, hardly anybody listened thru headphones so the discomfort caused when instruments are heard in only the left/right channel was not an issue. Hey, if you don't like the mixes (I do!) Don't listen! Dammitt! Have a nice day! brm
