Miles Goodman, as you may know, died in 1996 at the early age of 46. He graduated from Antioch College (Ohio) with a degree in English, but eventually moved West and became interested in film scoring through his cousin, Johnny Mandel (small world!). Most soundtrack fans seem to agree his work is under-represented on disc, so here are 2 rare compilations with some of that music. These are usually listed as promotional releases, although the only credit I see is on the back cover and is for Antioch College. Since Goodman established a music scholarship there, and they named an amphitheater after him, perhaps they produced these discs as a tribute.
Volume 1:
38 tracks: Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (9 tracks), Housesitter (5 tracks), Funny About Love (5 tracks), Dunston Checks In (6 tracks), He Said, She Said (6 tracks), What About Bob? (7 Tracks).
Great stereo sound. No dialog or sfx.
Tau and EAC indicated all tracks on this disc to be lossless.
Disc was ripped to FLAC using XLD.
Links are in spoiler.
Volume 2:
35 tracks: Larger Than life (9 tracks), Blankman (6 tracks), Getting Even With Dad (6 tracks), Indian Summer (7 tracks), The Squeeze (6 tracks), Sunset Park (1 track).
Great stereo sound. No dialog or sfx.
Tau and EAC indicated all tracks on this disc to be lossless, except tracks 29-34 (from The Squeeze) which have a cut-off that could indicate they are lossy. Comment #8 below says those tracks are lossless too!

NOTE: There was talk of a volume 3 existing, and it was eventually shared in post #37 (see page 2). However, as you can see by my comments in post #44, it turns out to be just a poor-sounding compilation made by a fan who simply (and inaccurately) labelled it as "Volume 3."

EDIT:
Turns out I know somebody who has this, and I’ve traded with him before. Guess I need to contact hyim again. ๐
Also, to justin boggan, I hope that Volume 3 is real. I would looove to listen to "Indian in the Cupboard" suite (I read somewhere that Frank Oz really liked that score).
Thanks again!
Please contact him immediately! Volume 3 would be great to have.
Thank you so much for these… I’ve been looking for a way to become familiar with Goodman for a while now. I think the only score of his I’m familiar with is Dunston Checks In!
Likely my site:
Rejected Scores, Main Lists (http://www.rejectedfilmscores.150m.com/list.html)
Not on there is that I read he supposedly only reorded about 20 minutes of the score. It wasn’t specified if that was because the score was rejected before he finished, or if he just did a short score.
Please contact him immediately! Volume 3 would be great to have.
That’s where I’m heading in a minute.

Great site justin boggan!!! Now I know where I’m going to spend my next couple of hours!!! ๐
I distinctly remember hearing the track of his music for "The Indian In the Cupboard", but I also distinctly remember it being of very poor quality, which is an absolute shame, because from what I heard on the track, I know I would absolutely love to hear it in all its glory. I have a vague, visceral memory of one distinct flourish of the orchestra that I very much enjoy.
When I gain access to the drive again, I will be sure to upload the third volume here if it has not yet been uploaded.
I’m speechless

very, very interesting!
Thanks to everyone for the updates. I’m still not sure an actual volume 3 in this series exists: if it did the cover would be just like the ones shown above and the audio quality would not be "very poor." I’m not saying "Indian in the Cupboard" wasn’t released on a Goodman compilation, just that I’m skeptical it’s part of the 2-volume series I posted. I would love to be wrong, so please share whatever anyone has!
Rejected Scores, Main Lists
very, very interesting!
The host provider, 150m, decided to do what it likes to do every few months: go down with no forewarning. Even the main site, 150m.com, won’t come up. They come back up whenever they feel like it.
It’s there way.
It’s there way.
And today is that special day when the provider finally felt like coming back up.
So, the main lists:
Rejected Scores, Main Lists (http://www.rejectedfilmscores.150m.com/list.html)
Hours & hours of reading material, even if you just read the listing. Interviews (over 30 composers), samples, full listing (maybe a little out-of-date) for official CD’s and bootlegs/promos.
They don’t make Films like the early 90’s anymore, nor the there kind of Score ๐
๐ Hey philby, I posted a request in the hunt thread months ago about Real Men, love that score too. I think that’s why, in part, Yepsa was kind enough to post these 2 CDs.
Someday, if/when I have some patience and a lot more time, I might try to extract some audio from the DVD. Someday. Meanwhile, I don’t know of anything out there.
Many thanks
Thank you Yepsa!
On "Real Men"
La La Land Records wanted to do it, but the master tapes are M.I.A.

As promised, here is Volume 3. MirrorUpload.net – Download – Miles Goodman – Selections From Film Scores – Volume 3.rar (http://www.mirrorupload.net/file/0LZTS5LD/#!Miles+Goodman+-+Selections+From+Film+Scores+-+Volume+3.rar)
Enjoy! ๐

For some reason I became unsubscribed to this Thread and didn’t come across the addition of "Volume 3" until now. I think it’s great that additional music by Miles Goodman is added here but, let’s be honest, this so-called "Volume 3" has nothing to do with the 2 volumes originally posted by me. Many of the poor-sounding tracks come from LPs or DVDs—heck, "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" is all synth—and the misspelled words on the artwork clearly indicate it’s something put together by a fan who simply labelled their effort as "Volume 3." By all means enjoy it for what it is, but not as anything actually related to the original 2 volumes.
Volume 3 had to come from more than just a fan cobbling, ’cause the rejected score to "Indian In the Cupboard" has not been released to this day, and there’s no known bootleg previous to this "Volume 3".
Know I’m resurrecting this thread from a long while ago, but had troubling accessing the links for the three Miles Goodman compilations, and just curious if anyone can please post the link(s) again or re-upload. Thanks in advance!
I just tested the links and they work fine. If you forgot the password, it’s crybaby.
If you can download the folders but don’t know how to unzip them, or are unfamiliar with the FLAC format and how to convert that into Mp3 or whatever, just ask!
FYI: I can’t send you a private message until you’ve posted at least 5 times (I think that’s the number).
Note: The link for Volume 3 is dead. Any chance a fellow member from this thread is willing to do a re-up or PM a link? Kindly appreciate it. ๐

Hi Yepsa, do you have the promo of Michael Convertino compilation?
The old link in post #37 no longer exists.
