Airing Saturday night 10pm CT, 8pm Pacific. 8/28/2010 Topic is ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS and how they influenced your life.----------------------------------------------------- My Co-host Amy Norris,from GREASE2.NET, will share her opinions on what makes a great movie soundtrack and her personal favorites.------------------------------------------------------------ Most movies began producing soundtracks in the late 50's and kicked it into gear in the 1970's where they were in competition with general pop albums. What were your favorites when you were younger and has that changed? Call in with the toll free hot line, through your computer with SKYPE or utilize my chat room. I will be discussing the various musicians most known for soundtrack excellence. -------------------------------------------------------------- In the beginning basically musicals had a soundtrack and that was it. Then little, by little, general films Like STAR WARS, SUPERMAN, JAWS and the James Bond films began to make their presence known with unforgettable scores. Even smaller films like CHARIOTS OF FIRE scored legendary themes helping to promote not only the album but the film itself. John William, Jerry Goldsmith,Bernard Herrmann, Maurice Jarre, John Barry, Franz Waxman and many more exploded on the music scene and have gone down in Hollywood history for their scores. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In many cases film music can make or break the film. Just look at JAWS 3D. Italian musicians have contributed to some musical efforts that are specific to them. One of the rare breed of Director/ producer / composer is JOHN CARPENTER whose soundtracks for HALLOWEEN, THE FOG and his 1982 remake of THE THING added that special touch which made his films unforgettable.
