Paramount LPs are now owned by Universal Music Group, so Varese or Intrada could possibly release the LP tracks. If Paramount cannot locate the film elements, however, an expanded release would be unlikely.

Unless of course the tapes were among Elmer's private collection as was LWTPS for example, we live in hope. I'd love to see this one released complete...calling Mr. Kimmel or Mr. Banning!

Elmer's tapes have been donated with the rest of his personal archives to USC. We used his masters for Heavy Metal: The Score and The Bridge at Remagen. While he has tapes of many unreleased scores, many others are missing, sad to say.

I have a strong feeling in me waters (as they say!) that you are working on some special Elmer music, no better man!

I am the world's #1 Elmer Bernstein fan (followed closely by Joan Hue) and although I've never loved WHERE'S JACK, I hope that it and all other possible EB scores will in time be released (tomorrow would be good!). If I had my 'druthers I'd be looking for original score releases for WALK ON THE WILD SIDE, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, THE CARPETBAGGERS (a legit release, that is), I LOVE YOU ALICE B. TOKLAS and a few others before WHERE'S JACK...

Dear Dana,
I love WHERE'S JACK, so I guess that makes me Elmer's #1 fan, and you and Joan are #'s 2 and 3.

There is a description of much of the Bernstein collection on a USC web site:
http://www.usc.edu/libraries/collections/elmer_bernstein/
I've always found it odd that they list in some detail the 95,000 pages of printed materials that they have, but except for the tapes of the "Film Music Collection" and "Heavy Metal," the listing of other materials in the collection ("16 & 35 mm film, reel-to-reel audio-tape, photographs, video/DVD, compact discs, DAT tapes, cassettes, correspondence, albums, and awards") is scant.

I can still remember seeing this, I thought it was spoiled by having Tommy Steel in the lead roll. I wouldn't think it's a lost film, just one of a vast amount of movies from the 50's & 60's that have been forgotten, & it wouldn't make much sense for the studios to release them (DVD ect.). The only thing I can remember about the music is the Mary hopkin song.

You are NOT alone. I've always enjoyed the Capitol "True Grit" "soundtrack," which I purchased on LP nearly 40 years ago (before even seeing the film). But I haven't played the "Where's Jack" LP nearly as much as "True Grit."

Oh good! I always thought that old Capitol LP was a good listen. As much as I enjoy Elmer's rerecording and the Tadlow version I'm still hoping that the original recording of True Grit will see the light of day eventually. The fact that this wonderful score didn't win an Oscar in it's day is still a crying shame!
