Good lord...as much of a fanatic as you are about Virginia, you really never noticed the symmetry? :0 That's the first thing that hit me...I wondered if maybe there were twins in the photo. :^0

I really liked the AZKABAN score because of the song based on the "Double Bubble Toil & Trouble" bit from Hamlet. That song MADE the movie.

I like Morricone's score for *Exorcist II: The Heretic* (1977). Very underrated.

From my favorite Bond soundtrack, *MOONRAKER* , here is "Flight Into Space", my favorite piece from that score, and of the THE best pieces from any Bond film. I'm pretty sure this score was the first 007 score to use a full symphony orchestra.

That's something I'll never understand...allowing music rights for a movie itself, but NOT for a DVD/home video release and having to change the music. Really dumb legal reasons, IMHO. If a company or studio licenses out music rights to a film, those rights SHOULD remain no matter what medium the film is in (vieo, tv, etc.).

Miraculously, some of those survived, and is the only AUTHENTIC version of the music. Personally, those are the types of vintage soundtracks I enjoy...the actual recordings used in the films themselves. I'll always take those over any

The two particular albums I'm thinking of (Kane and Kong) were on the United Artists label and conducted by LeRoy Holmes. Herrmann was apparently upset or perturbed (I have an interview from a magazine where he mentions this) over the Kane recording, saying something like "This guy LeRoy Holmes never asked me to do it".

I also actually enjoy Herrmann's CITIZEN KANE score (another early album I bought abck in the 70's). There's a really good mixed bag of different types of themes in there.

I don't own it, but it goes a long way toward making my favorite horror movie even more chilling. > You're kidding...you've never seen the second movie? I actually saw Omen II before I got the chance to see the first film (on a double bill with II). How about *The Final Conflict* (Omen III - 1981)? That's another great score...very underrated music, and probably Goldsmith's grande
