On 30th September, John Barry's "Raise The Titanic" score will become the first in a new series of Silva Screen vinyl releases for the serious soundtrack collector.

The series will include scores of outstanding quality that for some reason or another exist in their best form as a recording made subsequently to the original soundtrack.

The film of Raise The Titanic was panned by both critics and audiences alike upon its release in 1980. However, although the music was almost universally admired, the masters were either lost or destroyed.

When Silva Screen embarked upon a series of recreations of previously unavailable Barry scores -- masterminded by Nic Raine & James Fitzpatrick  -- Raise The Titanic proved a very popular release, selling thousands of copies on CD.

Now aficionados of John Barry and/or Raise The Titanic have the opportunity to own a vinyl version of this classic score, hopefully for a sensible price!

On October 14th, Sony will release a budget-priced 3-CD box-set: "The Real .... John Barry."

It's similar in content to the previous Sony box-set, Themependium, but includes at least one track that wasn't on that one: Theme from "Romance for Guitar and Orchestra".  There may also be two versions of "The Ipcress File".

It appears this time all the vocals included on Themependium have been omitted, and we must hope that "Sleep Well My Darling" & "Mary, Queen of Scots" have been properly remastered!

It's a pity they have apparently not included the "b" side version of The Lion In Winter featuring Alan Haven, but then, I don't suppose they knew about it.
