Happy Fourth of July!
As we’re in the final week of our FSM 35th Anniversary Kickstarter—trying to reach the stretch goal of $50K—this seems like a good time to offer a preview of our Ray Ellis Filmation CD (yours for $20, or a part of various other tiers).
These come from the 1979 Flash Gordon animated series (which was a originally a TV movie, as Jeff Bond explains in his liner notes):
The CD has music from Star Trek: The Animated Series, Flash Gordon, Jason of Star Command, Shazam, Isis, Gilligan’s Planet and Mighty Mouse.
We will be selling the CD separately once it’s pressed (probably in September), but please buy through the Kickstarter, we need your support!
Thank you!

One more thing! If you’re interested in the July 15th Alexandre Desplat concert at the Hollywood Bowl, here is a code to get 20% off at selected seats: UNDERTHESTARS.
Unfortunately, there is no code to get you 20% off the time you spend getting out of the parking lot—that’s what I would want!
Lukas, thank you for sharing the Flash Gordon cues - they are terrific - I am very excited about the Ray Ellis CD. I loved the Filmation Flash Gordon movie/series when I was a kid, and always enjoyed the music. Incredible that this release is happening, and I'm excited for another FSM album!
Gotta park at the Hollywood and highland, take the shuttle over and walk back. :)
