Okay, before I even start to discuss this score, I need a fellow FSMer to help me out here. The first 4 notes of the Main Theme to this score (listen to track 2) are exactly the same as another score I own. I think it's a Goldsmith (Islands in the Stream keeps coming to mind but I don't think it's that). Can anyone help me here? It's drivin' me crazy!!! Cheers!

A question regarding an issue with "KING OF THE WIND" by John Scott (JSCD109). I bought this CD twice, from different sellers, and both times it is suffering from the so called "bronzing effect" (instead of plain silver, the disc shows an uneven brown coloring on its top side). I was told this unfortunate effect appears on the first pressing of this title, as manufactured by PDO, and apparently does not appears on next pressings, presumably manufactured by other plants. Could someone please let me know, if you have an original copy as well, does it has or not that brown coloring on the top side of the CD and what is the name of the manufacturer?? Excuse me for this complicated detail, but I am struggling with that awful brown coloring. Thanks in advance for your kind help!

CD issues aside (mine's in storage so I have no idea what condition it's in - Long live iTunes!), I'm just not sure I can throw around enough superlatives in describing this score. It's just so full of so many great themes, orchestrations, harmonies and thematic variations... It's essentially a more "adventurous" take on his HAREM score, with some Tchaikovsky-like influences in the orchestrations at time, but distinctly and 100% Scott's voice, as always. This man's magnificence just never fails to beguile, and anyone looking to expand beyond the core few scores most collectors know Scott for (Final Countdown, Antony and Cleopatra, Shoot to Kill, King Kong Lives) would do well to start with this one. It's just amazing.
