So glad you pointed that out - I was deeply confused by the cover. For a moment there, I actually thought "Wait - Jackie Gleason really WAS Minnesota Fats?!" 
You know, of course, he was supposing a music label conflict, not a need to clarify Gleason's identity.
Yes, I know, having owned Gleason recordings since I was a child. Thus the winking emoticon. Welcome to the internet.
yeah, I know it was suppose to a joke, but it sounds like sarcasm, as if rmos's point was irrelevant. I guess I dont get it.

Looks like most of the score used in the film had made it onto the original soundtrack LP. So, Intrada has recreated the Kapp LP by taking the tracks not from the Kapp album master, but by going back to Fox's original scoring session tapes.
It wasn't recreated. Fox had the multi-track tapes used to make the original album, already assembled but with two tracks that ran longer that later had to be cut for LP running time. The additional cues and demos were a separate set of elements, all of it in surprisingly terrific shape. Neil Bulk sorted it all out for us.

I can't express how excited I am for this release.
This is one of those cases where both the score and film are completely top-notch. There is
The LP was a great program, so I am glad to see it preserved here (albeit without the edits that appeared on the original album).

Onya - in another (older) thread you said you'd be saving pennies towards the next disc of Kenyon Hopkins...but you haven't told us how many pennies this came to or how many pennies you paid Intrada for The Hustler

The sound is fantastic.
I'm just getting starting on the bonus tracks.
Outstanding package!

Oh yeah.
I'm really loving this CD.
I know I'm harping on this one a bit, but there is so little Kenyon Hopkins love in the CD format (and the LPs are pretty expensive at this point), it is still shocking to me to have not only a disc of one of his most important scores, but sounding so damn good, and having so much good music in addition to the original album.
Taking a brief Morricone break, but this one is about to get spun yet again once that album is done.

I converted my pennies to dollars from one of those rip-off machines that charges you 7 cents on the dollar or whatever.
Ah - OnyaBirri's Coinstar adventures.
