I just ordered this sucker for the Williams music!
Buy it for the Williams, keep it for the Grusin!
(Not that the Williams is bad in any way, but just wait and see what you'll likely be playing more.)

"Mission: Impossible" for example, had low sales. A classic series with classic scores that had as many, if not as many, requests over many, many years for the scoring. So, "Columbo" is now questionable.
On the other hand, if people who had the money to spend, bought sets like "Mission: Impossible" and "Superman: The Animated Series" (another low seller), it would encourage other sets.

It must be just me then who sees the Columbo music regularly cropping up on ‘most wanted’ lists on these message boards.
With regards to sales, I suspect very little of the music discussed here makes any profit worth talking about. We’re into a specialist market which regularly sees releases limited to just 1,000 copies. When one states that the Columbo music should ensure sales, these are the small figures I’m looking at. There are companies, for the love of it, I don’t know how they are able to do it, which release discs that appear to have very little in the way of market appeal; Columbo on the other hand, I think, I may well be wrong, has a broader appeal than most.
With regards to Mission: Impossible, there have been CD’s available of this music for many years, which would surely have affected sales of the admittedly more comprehensive collection. Columbo on the other hand has never had a proper release, and I suspect all of Goldenberg’s music for the series would probably fit on two CD’s, rather than the hefty and expensive 6 CD’s that make up Mission’s music.

There's a capitalistic bottleneck (or irony in human terms) about copyright owners who think something is priceless and worthless simultaneously. That is, they wont sell the recordings because they dont see a profit in marketing it, but they guard the copyright as if they're sitting on diamonds. Likewise the labels choose not to market for fear of low profits, although they might share the recordings amongst themselves. It's only called "bootlegging" when it's shared to the masses (not unlike whistleblowers or leakers of government secrets).

There's been two (one was later expanded, twice I think), with limited selections, in inferior sound, from only two composers, and one shared a CD with score from the 1980's series.
People were asking for more of it though, over the decade I have been posting online, not saying, "Well, we had enough M:I with two releases, so I'm good."

Time to revisit this.
I never think to spin it, for some reason. Maybe because of the range of composers and shows/films.
I guess there was never a volume 2.
I was never able to do a Volume 2, no, but I was happy to bring Intrada a 2CD set of Then Came Bronson. So there are actually three discs' worth of music for that obscure show available!
