For those who are pining for something completely new that's not a reissue or expansion, pay attention! Our latest album comes from a marvelous orchestral score from a late '80s drama. One uber soundtrack fan will be in heaven over this release.
Aye, looks like ROCKET GIBRALTAR by Andrew Powell. The uber fan they refer to must be dmd, who tried to get Varese to release it in the previous pastness era. It has some lovely passages that recall the softer, gentler stuff from LADYHAWKE. I'm buyin'
Well, it's definitely Rocket Gibraltar. From Doug's corner:
Going on sale Tuesday, June 26 is not only our newest CD, but the first one produced with our friends Peter Hackman (remark from me - SURPRISE!) of Varese Sarabande and Edwin Wendler (another remark from me - DOUBLE SURPRISE!!!) expressly in mind. Peter rates this score as having been his own “holy grail” until now. It’s certainly a rich and rewarding, never-before-released gem from the Columbia Pictures catalog. Listen to sound samples and peruse the artwork and contents on Monday evening prior.
Darn, so much for a new Broughton. Always happy for those. Ah well, I'm happy someone got their obscure holy grail answered. I know how that feels all too well.
