I don't know what you mean by that with the number nine in front of it. Last year I did multiple self-edited suites from the promo(?) by Melle. I also covered both the original series and remake series in threads.

This week's suites. "Chase" Composer: Oliver Nelson https://youtube.com/watch?v=wibZ3Ma90WE Suite #3. Covering a few more episodes where the previous suite left off. The Lalal A.I. program was used some to try and preserve more music. This is the final suite from the show for 2024. "Automan" Composer: Stu Phillips https://youtube.com/watch?v=2wtzV1L-Iv0 Suite #2. Covering a few more episodes where the previous suite left off. I cannot recall if I used the Lalal program on it or not. Final suite from the show for 2024. If I do more next year, I'll probably cover other composers. "Guns of Paradise" Composer: Jerrold Immel https://youtube.com/watch?v=BJ8D4SahO6I Suite #4. Covering a few more episodes where the previous suite left off. The Lalal A.I. program was used to remove some dialogue, since there is still sadly no release of scoring from the show. Final suite from the show for 2024. If I do more next year, I'll probably cover other composers. I know Immel did fantastic work on the show, but other composers did as well, and I need to focus on them some. I think four suites for him gave him his due. My Brother's Wife https://youtube.com/watch?v=IfiEVVOTd_M Suite #1 covering a track-job adult film from the 1960's. At the time I didn't know "Music Sound Recorders" was not a fake name for a composer, but just a stupid name making you think it was, but it's all library music. The load immediately tripped copyright and revealed one cue. The first 2:20 are simply listed as: Something Weird. I have no idea if that's the track name or a fake composer name for a library cue. Something weird, all right. MuTel Music:
Two more cues from the Bob Bailey run of the radio program "Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar". "brass fanfare" https://youtube.com/watch?v=djXe-QZtqUk It's a short outtro cue. Almost no salvage work was required, more just trying to find a use that sounded good enough (not too thin, not to weighty, not too crackly, etc.). Once again, this is my nick name as the real cue title is not known. "quick descending brass open" https://youtube.com/watch?v=UZRcv7YL4-M The Lalal A.I. program was used some on this cue, but as is the case with the program, it doesn't always "find" the dialogue bits when in short bursts, so some dialogue bits are here and there. It's kind of a mixed bag. Once again, this is my nick name as the real cue title is not known.

You're welcome. Two more Nelson suites next two months, then I'm out for him for the year.

What to expect from next week's suites: Continuing through season one of "Remington Steele", Paul Zaza, one or two more suites, and the third-to-last post of "Johnny Dollar" cues I worked on. And Sartoris, I think you probably already know what both suites are... ;-)

This week's suites: "Matt Houston" Composer: John E. Davis youtube.com/watch?v=ur9JYxNgz-Q Suite #2. Covering the first few episodes of the series he scored. The Lalal A.I. program was utilized to remove some dialogue. "Remington Steele" Composer: Richard Lewis Warren https://youtube.com/watch?v=8seqmdew5UI Suite #4. Continuing through his work on season one. The Lalal A.I. program was used quite a lot to try and preserve as much of the music as possible. Title Shot Composer: Paul Zaza https://youtube.com/watch?v=CaXFp7yrPig The opening credits funky cue, the only cue worth the time. The rest of the score was sparse and all over the place and mixed low. I suspect a good large portion of the score was simply dropped from the film. The Lalal A.I. program was used to remove some dialogue from the end, so it has a proper fade out. "Gunsmoke" Composer: Rex Koury https://youtube.com/watch?v=i2ZjiI2S1hs Suite #1. No further suites recorded, no planned at this time. Score from various episodes of the radio program, from a YouTube list generated by a guy who picked what he thought were must-hear episodes (and A.I. was used to have William Conrad speak and appear in the videos -- pretty darn cool). A fake credit was made with a screen grab from the TV series. I used an A.I. text remover, then I identified the font the series end credits used (Hunter Bold), and came up with an okay enough end result. MuTel Music:
Third-to-last batch of cues I worked on. "Timpani rumble/cello bass" https://youtube.com/watch?v=PjtmtVSmM-k Once again, this is my nick name for the cue, since the real name is not currently known. "trembling violin/percussion" https://youtube.com/watch?v=EDePde-OEHg Once again, this is my nick name for the cue, since the real name is not currently known. The Lalal A.I. program had to be used a little, but still, the end result is not what I had hoped for, since this is a cue I especially liked. :-(

What to expect from next week's suites (exact day not known): More "Riptide" (Post & Carpenter), the second suite for the "Hawaii Five-O" pilot, and the heat is on with DeVorzon. Plus, there are five Monday's next month, so one extra batch next month where I burn off some of my summer month themed suites.

You're welcome, Lyn. By the way, if anybody wants to make a suite, you can post it here. Just make sure you e-mail me first -- incase it's something I've already done/already done and waiting to be put out, working on, already involved in; no need to waste you time duplicating work.

This week's suites. "Riptide" Composers: Mike Post & Pete Carpenter https://youtube.com/watch?v=z02cVE5K8wo Suite #2, covering a few more episodes where the previous suite left off in season one. No further suites recorded or planned (maybe another one or two for 2025, just so I have covered this series well enough for the time being). The Lalal A.I. program was utilized on some cues to remove dialogue and preserve more music as possible. "Hawaii Five-O" Composer: Morton Stevens https://youtube.com/watch?v=M099bwLxYE8 Suite #3. Second and final suite covering the feature-length pilot score. Further details about what I did, are in the post for suite #2. "S.W.A.T." Composer: Barry DeVorzon https://youtube.com/watch?v=9hMy_ABnJ5Y Suite #1. Covers the first few episodes he scored. No further suites recorded or planned for this year. One or two more next year. It'll be a busy year for DeVorzon in 2025 -- four to five suites from me. :-) The Lalal A.I. program was utilized to remove some dialogue. Best thing short of an official release. MuTel Music:
Final two-cue batch. Next week will be a suite of stingers, short cues, and a couple of rarely used cues shoved in. Sometime 2025: The end credits music. No time to handle it this year. "chug chug chug" https://youtube.com/watch?v=oCs7-7hfCXM The semi rare second half is covered, while the very rare alternate of the second half, is not covered. This is once again my nick name for the cue as the real name is currently not known. "episode closer" https://youtube.com/watch?v=XdNMFSl2YDU This is once again my nick name for the cue as the real name is currently not known. Probably some generic name like "dramatic outtro".

What to expect from next week's suites (except posting day not known yet): The final suite for Goldsmith on "Destry", the final adult film music suite for the year, Stu Who, hopefully the "Johnny Dollar" suite (if I can finish it); and much like Jell-O, there's always room for this suite.

This week's suites. I apologize in advance as the "Johnny Dollar" suite is not ready this batch. John Scott is inadvertently in this batch! "Destry" Composer: Jerry Goldsmith https://youtu.be/Or3joaCE30A Suite #4. Final special salvage-job suite that covers the last of the three episodes of the series that he scored. The Lalal A.I. program was used quite a bit to remove dialogue which I couldn't replace on my own. I am completely burned out on the show, so I cannot do a suite covering the Mockridge one-off. Sorry. My Brother's Wife https://youtu.be/InC-nOgPqgk Second and final suite covering the library track-job adult film. After a few short minutes, the copyright system tripped and revealed three cues: "The Red Room" John Scott "Sidewalk Blues" Roger Roger "Bass Designs" Steve Race "The Cosby Mysteries" Composer: Bill Cosby and Craig Handy https://youtu.be/2yNdTjj4x6s Suite #1. This suite covers the feature-length pilot episode of this failed series: https://ok.ru/video/6930668980739

What to expect from Monday's suites: As July has one more week, I have an extra day that I said I'll burn off my summer-themed suites that are not in the final two weeks; expect Lalo Schifrin, Angela Morley, and more.

This week's suites. "Bronk" Composer: Lalo Schifrin https://youtube.com/watch?v=TKLpSqShGoo Suite #1. The only recorded and planned suite at this time. The suite covers the pilot score. This is a special salvage-job suite where I found cleaner parts tracked in the series to fix bad parts in the pilot score. Unfortunately, this was completed before I discovered the Lalal A.I. program, so it could have been better, but too late now. "Eischied" Composer: John Cacavas https://youtube.com/watch?v=vO4f-AWbTjI Suite #1. No further suites recorded or planned. This suite covers selections from multiple episodes (which is most of what is currently to be found). This was a short-lived failed cop series from 1979. "MacClain's Law" Composer: Angela Morley https://youtube.com/watch?v=QAHk2kiAt64 Suite #1. No more recorded, but more intended. This suite covers a few episodes of the series that Morley scored. My thread for the show with active links for the episodes: https://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=148529&forumID=1&archive=0 The Lalal A.I. program was used to removed some dialogue. "Toy Boat" Composer: Christopher Kemp https://youtube.com/watch?v=rbxCeRJoH6E Popular eBay commercial from years ago, that ran for a bit. The Lalal A.I. program was used to remove as much dialogue as possible. Years ago the composer had this in his demo of scored projects on his now non-existent website. He is/was part of Elias Arts. MuTel Music:
That's it for now. The end credits will be done and posted some time 2025. Suite https://youtube.com/watch?v=YT9fnQaQXZA This suite covers a few stingers, parts of interesting one-off cues, a commercial break announcement cue (which I can't even say it MuTel Music, but I used the Lalal A.I. program on it to removed the voice, so...), one dramatic brass cues (used in two or three episodes), and two rarely-used cues: "brass/piano stabs" "two quartet builds open" It appears "two quartet builds open" was never used in-full and one extended section was so badly covered in FX and dialogue that Lalal couldn't remove, that I had to drop it. The cue "brass/piano stabs", appears to have also not been entirely used, with parts evidently missing, and one over-lay section not found elsewhere (I've kept it since it's dramatic and I liked it). EDIT: Turns out one of the stingers is actually the opening of a library cue titled "Tympani Beat Tension" (also on the "The Adventures of Superman" Volume 1 CD),

Update: I mentioned working in two to three suites covering an entire 1970's British adventure series. I an finishing work up in the next hour and they will drop in September. Due to much tracking (which means I had unintentional salvage-job work to do), I was able to get it down to two suites.

This week's suites. "Longstreet" Composer: Oliver Nelson https://youtube.com/watch?v=9X_XiALoBiA Suite #2 -- the final suite for Nelson for the series. With this suite I have covered all credited episode scores by him. I even went threw a tiny number of track job episodes to do salvage-job work on cues and find cues done for the music library. It's pretty obvious many of these cues were not written to scenes, but made for a library of score to be edited and tracked as needed by the music editor and whims of the producers. It's possible I could have included work in these two suites, by other contributing composers for the show, but it would have been way too much time to go through them all to check. "Cagney & Lacey" Composer: Mark Snow https://youtube.com/watch?v=hk-SibRp-M0 This suite covers the original feature-length pilot (which had a different actress, Loretta Swift, playing the co-lead) and the next episode -- the only two efforts by Snow for the series. "The Fall Guy" Composer: Stu Phillips https://youtube.com/watch?v=vLJ8E5vfnA8 Suite #2. No more suites recorded, but more intended for next year. The Lalal A.I. program was utilized to remove some dialogue. "Wide Country" Composer: John Williams https://youtube.com/watch?v=xZoLiggtrDs This is a special Lalal A.I. salvage-job suite. I tried to preserve as much of the scoring as possible. I even experimented with using another part of the Lalal A.I. program -- I think "Drums" to see if it would catch the long prolonged clapping during the climax of the episode. And while it did not catch all of it, it actually removed some clapping in part and a long section where it not only recovered the clapping, but appears to have removed the audience cheering, revealing the score underneath -- a special treat for fans of the composer that previously could have only happened with an official release of the score. This suite covers the only episode of the series he scored. On a technicality note, the pilot did not air as part of the series, but rather on a pilot-burner series called "Alcoa Premiere", under the title of "Second Chances".
