Thanks mellowman. You dug deep to find some of those threads. A couple of those 'favorite cues' topics were among my very first posts!

Nice job. Wink

Today I have added links to all the featured composer's scores here on SST. My thinking is: someone sees a recommended cue or score and can then request from the album from the same thread. For those composers who had many collaborations (Hans Zimmer!! - how many?!??) I've just linked to the list of collaborators. But if you want me to change this I will.

Many thanks for all you positivie feedback! Any many many thanks to Nate for sticking it!

I still have a couple of forums to check and then I'll try to add links to the official composer sites too.

All forums have now been checked (but that's no guarantee that I haven't missed something!), I have added official and/or unofficial website links for most composers and a new set of links for Alan Silvestri.

By the way it was really interesting going through every thread there has ever been! Brought back a lot pf memories and made me think many of these threads could do with revisiting!

Awesome job, Mellow! What a terrific resource for everyone. Thank you so much!

Not to make more work for you, but may I suggest a couple more names:

Joel Goldsmith
Official website - http://www.freeclyde.com/

Lee Holdridge
Official website - http://www.leeholdridge.com/

You already have Thomas Newman. Altho this is not Newman�s official site, it has been operating and kept fairly up-to-date for 11 years - http://users.pandora.be/obelisk/tnc/main.htm Cool

Another resource you probably know of that may help with the above list in the future is Film Score Monthly�s list of Composer Official Sites.

Thanks again for all your time and hard work!!

Added those links you suggested, Two. Also a few other composers, their websites and scores here on SST. I have also started to add any significant interviews I come across.
