Limited Edition of 1000 Units
RETAIL PRICE: $59.98
STARTS SHIPPING JUNE 23
Orders start 12 noon (pst) on 6/23 at www.lalalandrecords.com
La-La Land Records, Synthesis Entertainment, 20th Century Studios and Legendary Pictures proudly present VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA – ORIGINAL TELEVISION SOUNDTRACK COLLECTION: LIMITED EDITION, a deluxe 4-CD collection of original music from the classic Irwin Allen 1964-1968 sci-fi/deep ocean adventure television series!
This beloved series, an exciting whirlpool of espionage drama, spy suspense, submarine action and creature features, showcased state-of-the-art effects that would blaze a trail for Allen’s LOST IN SPACE, TIME TUNNEL and LAND OF THE GIANTS to follow in its wake. A vital part of this series’ success and timelessness are its knockout episode music scores, which prove to be some of the finest examples of the era’s orchestral television music.
Featuring music by composers Alexander Courage, Robert Drasnin, Jerry Goldsmith, Lennie Hayton, Joseph Mullendore, Nelson Riddle, Paul Sawtell, Herman Stein and Leith Stevens, this deluxe 4-CD set, limited to 1000 units, is produced by Jeff Bond and Neil S. Bulk, executive produced by Kevin Burns, executive produced for 20th Century Studios by Mike Matessino, and digitally edited and mastered by James Nelson.
Among the many musical treasures to be found within this exciting release are an expanded presentation of the "Jonah and the Whale" score by Jerry Goldsmith, as well as main and end titles Goldsmith wrote for the show, along with a bumper, and a previously undiscovered, completely different, high-energy never-used main and end title Goldsmith was asked to provide later as an alternate. The set also features scores by Alexander Courage, Leith Stevens and Nelson Riddle that incorporate Goldsmith's theme for the Seaview submarine.
Additionally found here are several versions of the popular Paul Sawtell main and end titles that were retained throughout the series, including the fourth season arrangement recorded by Leith Stevens, both the long and short, editorially-created end titles, and bumpers based on the Sawtell theme heard in the first and fourth seasons. Among the five hours of underscore much of the most familiar and often-repeated music from the series can be heard, including a number of cues written to accompany the show's early second season introduction of the Flying Sub.
Co-Producer/writer Jeff Bond takes you to the Bottom of the Sea and beyond with exclusive, in-depth liner notes that journey you through a photo-packed 40 page booklet! The mission-ready art design is by Mark Banning. This special release is a limited edition of 1000 units.

Sawtell's theme is a better fit overall, but Goldsmith's theme is great for the early second season. And both themes were integrated well into the episodic scores by other composers. John Williams, for all of his massive talent, didn't create easy to use themes for Irwin Allen's shows. So, Voyage was the only one of Irwin's shows to weave the main themes into the scores. It's all good stuff!

Some of my favorite "Star Trek" scores are those written by Alexander Courage for Irwin Allen TV shows.
They generally sound like "Star Trek" music, but you don't get pummeled by that stupid "Star Trek" fanfare every two minutes.
The Cyborg and The Lost Bomb are my favorites of Courage's TV work. Really good stuff. He uses the Voyage theme a lot and it works very well.

Nobody referred yet to what Mike Bailey wrote about "And 5 Of Us Are Left":
"Mike Says: I have a real (dare I go ahead and say it?) BITCH with the music that all but destroys the effectiveness of this episode. Heavy-handed whining violins tell you when to feel sad or upset for the characters. This episode is saddled with some of the worst of this sort of manipulative film music I've ever heard, and it really ticks me off because the rest of the production is quite good, including the script. And then, during the big climactic action scene . . . no music at all. Whoa is me! What could John Williams or Jerry Goldsmith have done with this episode? BOO on episode composer Lennie Hayton!"

Anybody else hatin' on Hayton?

The late Mike Bailey was a nice guy and I loved his website, but he and I disagreed on a LOT when it came to the episodes, and this was one of them. There are some real gems in this one. As for the finale, the episode was already filed with music. The finale was cataclysmic enough that underscore was unnecessary. Good composers know when NOT to add music as well.

True, it isn't my favorite "style"* but it is quality music, very listenable and quite importantly, traversing the first leagues to Voyage the Bottom of the Sea. Complete!
