I have the UFO theme on a double CD called "Cult Fiction Royale" which has lots of themes from many 60s/70s TV shows and films. Marc, if you are a collector of cover versions of the UFO theme, you may be interested in a new release on Twist Records by The Solar Flares "Can't get you Out of my Mind". One of the B-sides "Lunar Girl" is a total rip-off of the theme music. I quite often e-mail the guy that wrote it as he is a big UFO,Gerry Anderson, Barry Gray fan. The label is Anglo/German but the band are from Kent for details on how to order see http://www.medwaymagic.org.uk/index.htm
I could get a copy of the CD and upload it to the files section easily enough, if anyone would be interested.I'm sure the band would not mind. I can get permission if necessary. A CD-R of all the versions would be good. Who have you got doing cover versions? Liz. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

The web page indicates that "Lunar Girl" is only available as a 7" single, but you've indicated that it's on CD? I'd prefer buying a CD if it's possible... ? -- Marc Martin, [hidden email] |
Hi All,
just I see this CD on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400621814 any idea ? -- http://www.supernet.it/ufotv UFO MERCHANDISE COLLECTION HOME PAGE Angelo Finamore, [hidden email] -- |
>Hi All,
>just I see this CD on Ebay >http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400621814 >any idea ? This looks different than the various fan-produced UFO soundtrack CD-R's that have been seen in recent years. Specifically the line: >This incredibly rare CD was mastered from the original studio tracks >and features dynamic, pristine sound quality. So Angelo, are you planning on being the highest bidder on this CD? If so, I won't I outbid you. However, I will ask you for a copy if it's something we haven't heard before! :-) -- Marc Martin, [hidden email] |
Marc;
I think its the same as vicar's. The pic's are all off your site and the number of tracks are the same, plus the length. I think that someone is trying to rip others off. "Spectacular Original Television Soundtrack from the classic 1970s British Sci-Fi TV series "UFO" produced by GERRY ANDERSON of "THUNDERBIRDS" fame! This rare CD contains 72 ORIGINAL TRACKS of music (OVER 60 MINUTES!) by legendary composer BARRY GRAY showcasing the Main Theme, plus scores from TEN classic episodes--IDENTIFIED, EXPOSED, CONFLICT, SURVIVAL, THE DALOTEK AFFAIR, A QUESTION OF PRIORITIES, THE CAT WITH TEN LIVES, THE MAN WHO CAME BACK, REFLECTIONS IN THE WATER and THE LONG SLEEP! This incredibly rare CD was mastered from the original studio tracks and features dynamic, pristine sound quality. Condition is MINT.

That was my original thought too, but no fan-produced UFO soundtrack CD-Rs I've seen could claim to feature "dynamic, pristing sound quality". Also, the other CD-Rs have a different number of tracks -- one has 43, one has 81, and one has 86. So 72 is unique, although they could have simply removed some tracks from one of the other CD's. Anyway, I've e-mailed the seller asking a few questions, so perhaps we can figure out what exactly this CD is... Marc |

Marc;
Sounds great. Let me know if you hear anything. Like you I won't bid on it. But I hate to see others do this sort of thing. There are some audio programs that you can enhance the sound quality, that was my thought.

Take a look at the list of episodes the tracks are from. It's the same ones as on the Unofficial Soundtrack Marc and I produced! Whoever this is, he's trying to pull a fast one!

Of course, it might not be possible to outbid Ralph -- perhaps he put in a maximum bid of a million dollars, and has no intention of paying the seller anything for the unauthorized recording! Although, if Ralph is merely trying to shut down the auction, he could just notify eBay about the unauthorized recording, and they'll remove the auction. Still no reply from the seller... -- Marc Martin, [hidden email] |

The Auction is now to $ 10.50.
Ralph cancel the bid.

>The Auction is now to $ 10.50.
>Ralph cancel the bid. >Explanation: The price has gone too high for the product being offered Oh, I don't know... is $150 too much to pay for otherwise unobtainable UFO music? Hmmm.... I also got a reply from the seller this morning. Based on his reply, it sounds like it *is* a copy of "UFO: The Unofficial Soundtrack" from a few years ago. Just with different cover artwork & fewer tracks. Although I don't think he's trying to rip anyone off -- says he still has the receipt and name of the place he bought it from! -- Marc Martin, [hidden email] |
Thanks for the info Marc;

Now that sounds terribly suspicious to me. I have receipts of my fridge, my deepfreezer, my oven, my TV, my computer, etc - all the stuff one buys and has a guarantee on - in case they break down. But who keeps receipts of everything they buy? CU Lieve Col. Lieve Peten, Commander MarsBase - Mailto:[hidden email] "That's what life is all about, I guess - The things we never say." Cmdr.
