YES, Henry, you definitely are. At least among every single member who's ever posted anything at all, in the history of The FSM Message Board, you are! This would include Sones as well, who works in the shadows; and no one ever sees.

Depends -- are you four or five hundred pounds or more?

Bill Conti is great, his Rocky Theme is one of THE iconic movie themes, like STAR WARS or JAMES BOND.

You're certainly the biggest something.

As it just so happens I was currently listening to Rocky II. I love the soft cues from the Rocky series. So good!

When I opened, this thread, I had just finished a first listen to F.I.S.T./Slow Dancing in the Big City, which I just ordered used last week. Great album that I'm astonished it took me nearly twenty years to hear. Really love the Balletto track especially. I've been slow to get on the Conti bandwagon - but bit by bit my own collection is growing. (Heck I hadn't even seen any of the Karate Kid movies until last year this time, which is silly since I was a video store manager when they came out!) I've always loved this quote from Mr. C: "I just want to write pretty, melodic music." He does it as well as anyone ever in the business, and with less sentimentality than most. Your love is well-placed, Henry.

No, I am. The Falcon Crest theme is probably my all-time favorite TV show theme. Especially that season one main title.

He's my all-time favorite composer and I think there's a good chance I am.Besides me he's not really talked about much here. LOL that is some big ego you have there Henry... So you think there is noone else supporting/collecting/listening more to Contis music than you just because they are not on this forum writing about it? Why there is not so much talk about him, may depend on that there is not any new music from him and alot of his music is unreleased or not expanded etc When Contis greatest achievement hasn´t gotten proper releases yet (I´m talking about the Rocky scores) it´s not much you can write about. I would want his Nomads score to be released too
