DOCTOR WHO - THE INVASION
The Invasion was an eight part Doctor Who story made and transmitted in 1968. Written by Derrick Sherwin (from a story by Kit Pedler) it starred Patrick Troughton as the second Doctor. At the helm was Douglas Camfield, one of popular television’s most maverick and talented directors in the 1960s and 1970s. The music was composed by Don Harper, the third Australian émigré composer (after Ron Grainer and Dudley Simpson) to work on the programme.
The master tape of the music for ‘The Invasion’ was lost soon after transmission, but Harper retained a 7½ ips ‘composer’s copy’ that forms the basis of this release. Additionally, the score was augmented by extensive use of electronic sounds by Brian Hodgson of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

DOCTOR WHO - THE FIVE DOCTORS
The Five Doctors, made and transmitted as a 90-minute special in 1983, was the 20th anniversary outing for the good Doctor, seeing the incumbent Peter Davison joined by previous incarnations Richard Hurndall (standing in for the deceased William Hartnell), Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker. The latter declined to return in person so soon after he had left, so was represented by some footage from “lost” story ‘Shada’.
The music was composed by Peter Howell at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. It was, in accordance with normal practice at the time, mixed in mono, so is presented here within a subtle mono-compatible stereo image. The sound effects for the story were by Dick Mills, but Peter was anxious to include the Death Zone atmosphere as part of the score so - with Dick still working on a previous project for a while - created that effect himself. The story would later be edited into the standard 4 x 25m episode format for syndication, for which Peter provided some additional “cliff hanger” cues.
In 1995, producer Paul Vanezis was contracted by BBC Video to produce a “Special Edition” of the story, extended beyond the original length (as determined by the transmission slot) and featuring updated visual effects. It was also decided to mix it in Dolby Surround (later updated to full 5.1 surround for DVD) so Peter Howell was called in to rework the music. Both versions of the score are presented complete on this release.

Not even within Silva's own site can these releases be seen - only @ SAE. Curious, that.
I expected at least some response thus far on music from classic DOCTOR WHO - but it seems these albums are arriving a little too late past the demographic which craved for such around 20 years ago.
Don Harper passed away in 1999. Where have this composer's personal tape copies been residing for almost 2 decades that the music for "The Invasion" wasn't issued years ago?

I've been watching classic Doctor Who for the past 8 months, everything but late #3 and early #4.
I can't say that much of the music is that compelling.
Only a few times have I thought, 'This is more than functional, enjoyable even'.
A sampler surveying the music through the run might be interesting to scholars.
The Gerry Anderson shows got all the really good music.

A combination of reasons really..
A. The collapse of BBC Music in the mid-2000s put a crimp on all Who releases for a while and Silva only recently started doing classic era soundtracks.
B. There's only about 15 minutes of actual music written for The Invasion. Doctor Who scores from that era were never done to picture and frequently choppped and repeated when necessary to convey mood.
C. Most of it was already made available in the 50th anniversary box set 5 years ago.
Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware The Invasion was in a 50th anniversary edition.
This new release from Silva, though, is likely much more than 15 minutes in duration - I'm curious about the additional music and sound sculptures ...

By late #3 & early #4, I take it you refer to Pertwee & Tom Baker?
I think Doctor Who's first season had most impressive music (Tristram Cary, R.R. Bennett, Stanley Myers, Norman Kay, etc.)

I'm just so tickled Silva keeps bringing these out. Great fun!

The scores I'm hoping for are the Dudley Simpson ones for the Tom Baker years. The album of Heathcliff Blair rerecordings from Baker's first season is great, but the twelve minutes on the 50th compilation (from Invasion Of Time and Android Invasion) are wonderful. Fingers crossed...
