In celebration of, what would have been, Jerry's 95th birthday, the audio files for "Autumn Love" (CBS library music) were released to our Kickstarter backers.
Here's a little example of how great the music is (each of the 7 cues are just like this; nicely structured, self-contained, units)
My JG GE digital album is now a whopping 79 minutes long! What a wonderful collection of miniature scores from the master's early days. Beautiful performances and recording. Many many thanks to Leigh Phillips for bringing these back to life so wonderfully. I'll be on board for the next project!

Thanks, Michael! Very happy to hear that you've enjoyed the scores.
God, did we really record that much (I've honestly not sat down and counted it up)??
Just a suggestion for folks open to it, but if you re-order these volumes to construct a full 79 minute album in iTunes chronologically by composition/airdate, it actually plays SUPER well. Here’s that play order for the GE Theater scores; “Autumn Love” works really well as a bonus score at the end OR at the beginning (Goldsmith did write it in the late 50s before any of these):
1. Hitler’s Secret (season 8 episode 3, aired October 4, 1959) 2. The Last Dance (season 8 episode 10, aired November 22, 1959) 3. Sarah’s Laughter (season 8 episode 16, aired January 3, 1960) 4. The Committeeman (season 8 episode 18, aired January 17, 1960) 5. The Legend That Walks Like a Man (season 9 episode 20, aired February 12, 1961) 6. My Dark Days - Prelude (season 10 episode 25, aired March 18, 1962) 7. My Dark Days - Aftermath (season 10 episode 26, aired March 25, 1962) 8. The Bar Mitzvah of Major Orlovsky (season 10 episode 28, aired April 15, 1962)
Looking forward to hearing what people think of the 32 minutes of new Goldsmith that just dropped…

That's the order I put mine in, with "Autumn Love" at the beginning (since it most likely came first). It's a really nice-flowing album. Love the two most recent ones, with the Italian-flavored "The Committeeman" being my favorite.

It works in either spot, but I put Autumn Love at the end, the 'bonus' region, and it makes such a great capper for the set.
I listened to those reconstruction cues Yavar posted a bit back, and while I have not heard the re-recording, I can say that the original score is a lovely little work and a real highlight for me.
