My Collection, Revealed!

So here's my collection as it currently stands. The list is subject to change, and there were so many albums here that I didn't bother to make strictly sure that it was properly organized: there are bound to be some albums which are placed in a wrong spot, chronologically. Feel free to point them out if you notice any. Changes will be made to the list as errors are detected and as the collection itself evolves (if it does at all).

Also, this doesn't include ANY of my partial iTunes albums, those where I cherry-picked only certain tracks.

I will still be starting my reviews with 'The Incredible Hulk,' even though a new soundtrack has been added to the collection and precedes it (Mr. Addison's fine effort for 'A Bridge Too Far'). Oh well. I'll be doing my reviews more or less in this order, although I may just shake things up now and again by choosing something totally random. It'll keep things interesting, anyways.

One last note: my reviews will probably be spread across several posts per album, as I'll be writing stuff as it comes to me. As soon as I can find an easy way to link to sample clips and suites from each score, I'll begin. Enjoy perusing this hopelessly long list.

Would you mind terribly if I nicked your idea for my blog? (Of course, I'll credit you!)

Cindylover1969 said...

there are bound to be some albums which are placed in a wrong spot, chronologically. Feel free to point them out if you notice any.

The Elfman order has a few: Dick Tracy came out before Darkman, and they both came out before Edward Scissorhands; and Sommersby came out before The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Yeah, go ahead and nick away! I find it immensely satisfying to be an inspiration to others... (besides the fact that I may get more publicity!) :)

Yes, the Elfman section, bloated as it is, was bound to contain some errors. I have no doubt there are similar problems with the James Horner and John Williams sections. Perhaps even Elliot Goldenthal. I'm on it!

It's finally done!
