One of the things I’ve broadly learned doing this CD store is the ratio of movie titles by letters of the alphabet. By far the most popular letter to start a title is S. It’s not just because of Star Trek and Star Wars, there are all the SP- titles too. Second seems to be M.
And some letters just don’t have a lot of titles—particularly K. So here’s what we have that’s noteworthy from the K titles:
We have two copies of the La-La Land Karate Kid by Bill Conti, $15.
We have a pair of Morricone scores for the Karol TV miniseries from the mid-2000s, about the life of Pope John Paul II. Part 1, $45, and part II, $18.
Keeper of the City is an obscure, late Rosenman TV movie score that I always liked, on Intrada. Only $5.
We have a bunch of copies of the Fred Steiner recording of Max Steiner’s King Kong (no relation). Here’s a sealed copy of the Southern Cross release for a buck.
King Rat is a 1965 John Barry score for a WWII P.O.W. film. Beautiful albeit somber dramatic scoring. We have the sold-out Intrada CD, featuring both the album version and film recording, $35. Also the Legacy release of just the album version, $5.
We have a bunch of Erich Wolfgang Korngold classical CDs, starting at this page at the site. I don’t know them nearly well enough to make any recommendations.
We have a copy of the expanded SCSE release of Krull (James Horner). I was so excited to get this back when it came out. It is almost, but not quite, the complete score. $35
We have a couple of copies of the Kung Fu/Man in the Wilderness doubleheader we did at FSM, which has become quite sought after. We’re asking $65.
I’ll start into the L titles, there are a lot of them:
We have two copies of L’Africain, by Delerue, on Universal France, $18.
We have a copy of the Music Box release of Sarde’s L’Ours (The Bear), $35.
Two great Morricone scores: La Califfa, $12, a digipak where the tray is becoming unglued—but hey the music sounds great! And the GDM release of La Gabbia, $18.
We have three copies of Delerue’s La Revolution Francaise, each a 2CD set, and each $18. There’s the Disques Cinemusique release, sealed and used, and the Music Box.
Lady in a Cage is a good Paul Glass 1960s suspense score, on Kritzerland, $8.
We have a copy of Lady Jane on Quartet, by Stephen Oliver, $25.
We have a copy of The Last Hard Men on Intrada, featuring the Leonard Rosenman score that was rejected from this Fox western, and the Goldsmith tracks that were re-recorded for it from earlier projects. This is $35.
We have a copy of the Rykodisc release of Last Tango in Paris, only $5. Gato Barbieri’s music was orchestrated by the magnificent Oliver Nelson.
Back tomorrow with more!
