Well, the cat IS out of the bag. And just to clarify a few things: This IS, indeed, a legitimate, officially licensed release. I have been dealing with the lawyers of the Bernstein Estate, who, in turn, put me in touch with USC, where the Elmer Bernstein collection is housed. They had 2 audio reels with the album master, compiled by Elmer when the film came out. When the film proved less than successful, the plans for a soundtrack release were scrapped, and the material was archived.
John Strother of Penguin Recordings did a stellar digital transfer, and the music sounds as crisp and clear as if it had been recorded last week. I am really very happy with it.
A note regarding the ownership: I called Nigel Green’s office when I first started working on this, and the woman I spoke to told me they don’t own the rights. That’s when I got in touch with the Estate.
Right now, I am listening to the music while watching the movie to find out where the individual cues go, so I can give them titles. Thsi is a bit ttricky, as some cues are combined on the album, or the film rerpeats a cue here and there, sometimes partially. In any case, it is a great score, and I am very happy that it can finally be released. It should be out around April 1, 2011.
By the way, it's probably going to be limited to 3000 copies.
Well done .... having worked with Elmer on his very last recording, DE MILLE, which he kept CD rights to, I always thought that Elmer might have retained some of the rights rather than have Entertainment Films retain all of them

Oh my god. Speechless. At last!
EDIT: Crap hadn't noticed the April 1st stinger. So what's the deal. I'm in a bad mood anyway given the death of Mr. Barry -- and this hasn't helped at all. Not at all.

I don't think Robin would have posted the above message with such detail if this was nothing but a joke. And beyond that, it's not funny.

Are you people here "totally deranged"?  It´s NO HOAX...
Robin would not do this to his customers as it would be suicide for his label after all the hate mails , so this IS VALID...
I saw the movie once when it came out on VHS but do not remember either the movie nor the music...
Hope they make a great cover this time to this CD as it is obviously a grale to many here...

Sir, I respectfully suggest that you do not respond to all. Continue focusing on your excellent releases and ignore the background noise. The silent majority will continue to buy your cd's, no doubt about it.
In fact, we should all challenge ourselves to releasing at least one film score to fully appreciate the work that goes into one of these productions.
Please keep up the good work Sir.
Avec mes compliments
