Spurred on by someone mentioning him in another thread, composer Eric Rogers doesn't get much love. So here's a literal quest for love, about Quest For Love (and some biographical info), my archived analysis of Eric's score, from Legend magazine's Spring 2001 issue, updated in 2016 for the online archive of Soundtrack and Cinemascore, then managed by the late Jeannot Bouver:-

Love to get Quest for Live score. A holy grail. Great relatively unknown movie that used to run a couple months on late night TV when they used to run movies on late night TV. That’s how I discovered it. I was able to get the DVD from Amazon a few years ago and don’t know if it’s still in print but it’s worth getting to see Joan Collins essentially playing a role very similar to the one that she did on the City on the Edge of Forever

I taped it to VHS from a TV broadcast, which is what I used to do my score analysis and stopwatched the timings of each cue for my analysis and self-titled cue sheet. I much more recently got the DVD, like you, from Amazon. I of course mentioned the similarity to City, except in city, Joan was the focal point in time and in Quest, not in time but an alternate universe.
I bought a John Wyndham short story book, to read the source story Random Quest as part of my research. It was first made as an episode of Out of the Unknown under the original title (not seen it) and then remade as a 2006 TV movie, again called Random Quest but I got bored and switched off!
