I got my TT set today. I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying it (the fidelity has me grinning). I used to put my little cassette recorder up to the TV just to record these shows, mainly for the music. To have a high quality set like this, along with Voyage, Giants, LIS, TOS, WWW, it's a dream...
Mine finally shipped today. Bring on the dancing girls....
I have a book called Project Tic Toc from Alpha Control Press which is all about TT. Does anyone else have it?
I haven't opened it in years but have been reading it while waiting for my set.
You might be right. I tend to think it's because most of the big lyrical influences to younger composers are largely gone. Some of my favorites: Goldsmith, Astley, and Williams, just to name a scant three. The influences just aren't there anymore.
I hardly see a TV show anymore and wish I had the soundtrack. Used to happen to me a lot, but not very often in the last 10 years. There are still good shows if I look for them, but I miss the days when soundtracks--and characters--had distinct themes that I could whistle.
