Roger says


The first up comes from the mid-2000s. An exciting score to a effective thriller composed by one of the most prolific composers working today. It's one of the ones that got away.

The second has some interesting history. This late 70s film had a soundtrack album planned. It was even assembled and some copies pressed. These were packed in a white sleeve and given away as a promotion at some event, perhaps the premiere. I wasn't there, so I'm going off memory. But in any event, the album was never further commercially pressed. Now it makes its premiere on CD. We were not able to include the vocals that were on the LP master, but the composer had nothing to do with them, so this better showcases his score. Strange film, but top notch score by the composer. Oh and the cover art -- not so much to work with, so don't let it put you off!

Collateral (2004) by James Newton Howard?

There doesn't look to be much of his score on the existing song-based CD.

That would be awesome. Silly film...but a propulsive score!

Hey, I liked Red Eye - how many flicks are there nowadays that come in, get the job done and get out at the 85 minute-mark including credits (see also Breakdown)? Although it would be a pretty short CD, since the end credits start around 75 minutes in. smile

Fun score as well.

Is Beltrami really that prolific?

That word makes me think of Zimmer, Tyler and Desplat.

You're joking, right?

Not so much from the 40s, 50s, and 60s either.

I hope it's OLD BOYFRIENDS; I'm always greedy for more Shire.

I would also like to pipe in about Red Eye. That was a great film. Dialogue-based movies like this better have good dialogue, which Red Eye does. I have seen it dozens of times and I enjoy it each time. I don't recall the score though.

Sounds like Old Boyfriends to me - a beautiful piece of work from Mr. Shire and certainly I hope it sells better than Paternity, which is also a great Shire score.

For trivia folks, David took the main theme from Old Boyfriends and used it in his recent musical Take Flight.
