World premiere of original soundtrack to second chapter of lengthy mini-series, directed on location by William H. Graham, with Barry Bostwick reprising role of America's first president.

[Bernd Junker]

Klasse, ein Delerue ... da freut sich der Stephan aka Columbo garantiert auch.

[Nico Colin]

Und ich mich auf den Broughton : )

[ronin1975]

muss ich beides nicht haben... aber für andere sicher hübsch

[Mephisto]

Bei der Limitierung sind die sicherlich schnell ausverkauft. Ich lasse die beiden CDs mal ziehen...

[Siddl]

Schade...Douglass sollte sich mal um Bruce's "WARM SPRINGS" kümmern. Der wäre ne Veröffentlichung wert.

[MarSco]

Und beide schon weg. Der Broughton wär sicher ganz interessant gewesen, aber ich bin leider zu spät gekommen.

[BigMacGyver]

Diesmal habe ich den delerue sausen lassen. Der broughton war mir irgendwie wichtiger.

Interessant ist übrigens folgende anmerkung in dem text zu george washington II:"(Laurence Rosenthal scores Part I.)"

Ich gehe mal schwer davon aus, dass intrada auch teil 1 veröffentlichen wird.
