Not to mention that there is probably just a single "action" sequence which is something around 2-3 minutes only...

but still... that massive 2-hour score wich lengthy action sequence should be probably something MUCH older... otherwise that "magnificent stereo" wouldn't have to be mentioned but expected if it was supposed to be something recorded in the digital era...

I'd rather expect something from 60s or 70s.


Maybe original "Sodom and Gomorrah" ?

There is very long battle sequence and maybe at last in "magnificent stereo"?


I think the Battle of the Dam sequence is much longer than 9 minutes, so that would seemingly rule out Sodom.

Digitmovies already released it. Twice. And in full stereo.

Original one - https://www.digitmovies.com/shop/en/cd/74-CDDM074-8032628990748.html
Digipack re-issue - https://www.digitmovies.com/shop/en/cd/1001046-DPDM017-8032628997174.html

As already noted, Willow is most likely disqualified for the same reason Goldsmith is (two hot length clue), but Perfect Storm might be the best guess so far. I think it's about two hours and I know Doug loves the score -- he wrote a great lengthy Doug's Corner post about it at the time it originally came out -- probably archived on the Intrada side so go search it out! And depending on how long it is, Robin Hood could still be in the running because the two hour score is (probabaly) not Disney.

Roger Fiegelson also hinted at THE PERFECT STORM and BALTO as works in process in an interview online. I too love STORM. But another Horner title like TROY could be the first one?


Wait, wait , wait....he actually said THE PERFECT STORM as something Intrada is trying to get?

What interview was this?

I thought perhaps the poster is referring to http://jameshorner-filmmusic.com/intrada-interview-with-roger-feigelson/ . If so, it's important to note the *interviewer* only posed those title suggestions, Feigelson did not specifically mention them:

"What would it take to one day have the complete scores of, for instance, Balto, The Perfect Storm, The Rocketeer, etc.?

Just time. Most albums are possible; it's just a matter of getting to them. One might ask why we haven't done Rocketeer yet and I could only answer, well we just released a two-CD set of the complete Clear & Present Danger. I could have done Rocketeer first and then we'd be asked, what would it take to have a complete Clear & Present Danger? Everything in good time. I hope!"

Intrada and LLL have hinted if not flat out said they're eyeing if not working on quite a few Horner scores. Happy days are here again!

The original album for The Perfect Storm, to me, always sounded muddy with a none to expansive stereo mix. There is so much going on in this score but a lot of the delicate instrumentation comes off as barely audible. So the term "magnificent stereo" may have some bearing if you think of it in that regard. Anyway, here's hoping. It's one of Horner's greats.

Some of the unreleased cues actually have better mixing...though I'm technically not supposed to talk about that.

BALTO, really?! WOW, did not hear about this. Super excited. Though I'd love any of the three you mentioned.



Yes! Frickin' Balto! Best score of '95 - along with Goldenthal's Heat of course.



Kidding. The best score is Apollo 13, but these two are next.

Mummy 2 is easily two hours long...


Also has more than six horns (eight).

You should check your ears because at the least the original 2CD is not in full stereo, despite what is claimed on the site/artwork (and even less so not in 'magnificent stereo')

Trekfan has responded to that query. I felt Fiegelson was sort of hinting at these titles in general including THE ROCKETEER which they eventually did. Lets see.

The Alamo main battle music (film version rather than the album edit) lasts 9 minutes.

Now that would be fantastic. This is my second favorite golden age score outside of Ben-Hur. The original album had voice overs all over it, so a dialog free version of the score would be most desirable.
(Yes, I'm aware of the re-recording)

That would depend on whether or not the tapes are found. I asked Robert Harris about the status of the tapes a few years ago (before MGM just about condemned the film to rot into oblivion) and he seemed to imply that the tapes were lost.

Some tapes are available, they were used to create the recent 3 cd re-record set. However, not sure if these are good enough to release.
