Indeed. First and foremost GREED, I daresay. Still not available anywhere, at least in restored, physical form. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I've wanted GREED on Blu ray for so long... The only other discs I've found with Davis's music are THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA on BFI (region-free), THE THIEF OF BAGDAD on Cohen and a massive favorite of mine, THE BIG PARADE on Warner Classics. Criterion has released his scores on discs for SAFETY LAST, SPEEDY, KID BROTHER, and THE FRESHMAN. That's a tragically small sample of the many scores he recorded for the silents. His music for NAPOLEON is Region B locked due to Coppola's ownership of the rights in the US. Davis' score for the 1925 silent BEN-HUR is also on disc, albeit only available as part of the MGM DVD and Blu-ray box sets of the 1959 remake. Bob, do you know of the silent Ben-Hur is in HD?
