"The 'Burbs" is one of my favorite Goldsmith scores, and it looks like this album is beautifully produced with attention to the finest details. I am especially eager to hear the film version of "The Trunk," which I've wanted for years!    Posted:   Nov 25, 2022 - 9:52 AM     By:   Mink   (Member) Fantastic news indeed! LLL never disappoints with their Black Friday titles! The piece I always thought was missing, was the (supposedly) revised beginning of the End Title for Corey Feldmann’s last line and him walking down the street. But since it’s not in the track list I guess it was tracked? Or perhaps it’s part of the film version of “Pack Your Bags”?    Posted:   Nov 25, 2022 - 3:51 PM     By:   johnonymous86   (Member) I know this is a hot take, but this is one of my favorite Goldsmith scores. Same, without a doubt. I'm not really fond of Goldsmith's comedy scores but this one gets played a lot. I think it's because he's doing such a sharp parody of his more epic style, it's just a lot of fun.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 6:56 AM     By:   dbrooks   (Member) This is a comment about the 1500 limited for this release. I am thinking if 1500 sells out fast, LLL will most likely re-issue it. Most fans have The Burbs' already in their collection and this is for the hard core and or those who missed out.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 11:31 AM     By:   MRAUDIO   (Member) So let me get this straight, if I have the Varese Deluxe Edition, I really don’t need this?    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 12:09 PM     By:   Yavar Moradi   (Member) So let me get this straight, if I have the Varese Deluxe Edition, I really don’t need this? If you like the score and read what Neil Bulk wrote above, I’m not sure how you could come away with that impression… Yavar    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 12:55 PM     By:   SBD   (Member) So let me get this straight, if I have the Varese Deluxe Edition, I really don’t need this? On the surface, it would seem so, but to have the film version of "The Trunk" at long last...sounds like a purchase for me.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 1:26 PM     By:   funkymonkeyjavajunky   (Member) I am definitely going to get a copy of this title. My secondhand Varese CD is a bit scuffed up. Also, 16 more minutes of music, new liner notes, $22 price tag, and it's a Goldsmith release ... I'm sold.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 8:04 PM     By:   Movieman5   (Member) To MV or Neil, how was this release possible without Varese since they did the original release and had the rights? Thanks for any info    Posted:   Nov 26, 2022 - 8:10 PM     By:   NSBulk   (Member) To MV or Neil, how was this release possible without Varese since they did the original release and had the rights? Thanks for any info Universal owns the rights.    Posted:   Nov 27, 2022 - 5:38 AM     By:   other tallguy   (Member) Oddly this film is unavailable to stream either on a service or even just to purchase!    Posted:   Nov 27, 2022 - 6:27 AM     By:   Peter Atterberg   (Member) Love this score and can’t wait to pick it up.    Posted:   Nov 28, 2022 - 2:06 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) "So let me get this straight, if I have the Varese Deluxe Edition, I really don’t need this?" ---------------------------------- That will all depend on how much you REALLY LIKE this score. The original Varese CD was too short (at 30 mins) and the Deluxe Edition is too long (at 61 mins) for me. I loved the first CD, which was a spectacular highlights package but missing some great music. But the expanded edition gets on my nerves, with way too much and repetitive comedy snooping around music and Goldsmith's trademark 'silly synth-phonies' from his ministry of stupid noises (dog yelps, squeaky toys etc). Goldsmith's comedy music can be cringe-inducing at times. I think my whittled edition runs just under 40 mins. Your love of the film/score should determine if you need to add this one to your collection. The Varese Deluxe sounds fantastic though. The sonic upgrade would have to be really something to improve it.    Posted:   Nov 28, 2022 - 2:59 AM     By:   JB Fan   (Member) I just realized, that this will be my last title to complete "Dante-Goldsmith collection" (well, film one)!    Posted:   Nov 28, 2022 - 3:29 AM     By:   MRAUDIO   (Member) "So let me get this straight, if I have the Varese Deluxe Edition, I really don’t need this?" ---------------------------------- That will all depend on how much you REALLY LIKE this score.

I have BOTH the original Varese as well as the DE. Thanks again!    Posted:   Nov 28, 2022 - 7:42 AM     By:   The Mutant   (Member) This looks pretty cool. It would’ve been nice to have the end credits merged with “Pack your bags” as it appears in the film. I always combine those two.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2022 - 11:37 AM     By:   Diederik   (Member) Cool that this one has gotten a new release. And a surprise that it's a La-La Land Records release. I have missed the previous Varèse editions, as I wasn't into soundtracks back then and this was a quick sellout I believe. Now I can finally add this score to my collection. Saw the film once many years ago and remember some creative comedy writing, and a parody of Goldsmith's Patton theme. When in the right mood, Goldsmith's comedy scores are a real blast. He had his own unique approach to comedy, and especially with Dante, his scores were always very diverse; from the weird sound effects to the sincerity of the themes.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2022 - 12:07 PM     By:   johnonymous86   (Member) Based on the sound samples that I've heard, the sound quality is much punchier than the Varese. The older releases always sounded a little "dirty" (not the technical term but I can't really describe it any other way). This release sounds very present and clear. Looking forward to going back to the neighborhood!    Posted:   Nov 29, 2022 - 1:55 PM     By:   Mike Esssss   (Member) I typically don't care for Goldsmith's comedy scores and was prepared to let this pass, having owned neither of the previous releases, but the samples (particularly "The Sentinel") really sold me.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2022 - 3:35 PM     By:   dbrooks   (Member) Getting close to December and my budget is slim, I ordered this first since we only have 1500 of them. Not taking any chances. Godfather I will order next year.     General Discussion: LLL Announces: THE 'BURBS (Jerry Goldsmith)    << < 1 2 3 4  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7
