LEGAL EAGLES
Music Composed and Conducted by ELMER BERNSTEIN
INTRADA ISC 446
Intrada's latest release features Elmer Bernstein's score to the 1986 mystery/romance/thriller Legal Eagles. Continuing his fruitful relationship with director Ivan Reitman (including collaborations on Animal House and Ghostbusters), Legal Eagles would be the last time the two worked together. The score for their last teaming is a charming one, with a warm, playful main theme. Yet don't be deceived: as with any part thriller, there is also suspense and action, as well as a strained, almost tortured theme for Chelsea Reardon. In many respects the score harkens back to his work in the '60s.
The album features the complete program released by MCA Records back in 1986 from source elements stored in the UMG vaults in excellent condition.
In the film, Robert Redford plays a dedicated lawyer in line for the top job as New York City’s District Attorney. Divorced but enjoying a great relationship with his precocious daughter, he finds his life turned upside down by two quite different women — Laura Kelly, an eccentric defense attorney notorious for once putting a dog on the witness stand; and her client Chelsea Deardon, a beautiful yet troubled performance artist convinced that her artist father was murdered by associates who stole his paintings but claimed they were destroyed in a fire. Logan finds himself attracted to both women, while the trio finds their lives in danger as they uncover a decades-old criminal conspiracy.

Why not the complete score?
Because they’ll have you buy this first then release the complete score in about a year or so.

Nah, give it six months.

Hahaha.
But, seriously, why not a complete score? Lost tapes? Not much music unreleased?
Well, what's missing that matters exactly from the album?
God knows how long it took INTRADA to clear the album music and what it cost.
Just remember the old saying "Dying is Easy, COMEDY IS HARD"
Comedy overall aren't the biggest sellers to start with and the fact they got this out is rather amazing at this point.
Looking forward to picking it up myself.

So you answer my question with a... question?
This makes no sense.
I’m sort of tired of hearing just how amazing every release is. Come on enough. He says what’s missing that matters? For real, just wait, this will get released in complete form and then it’ll be “this is such a miracle!” Yada, yada, yada.
