Hello all -
Was wondering if anybody at all out there has a copy of this early 2000's Percepto release of 'Vic Mizzy: Suites and Themes' (Percepto 003) in any format.

It's a collection of the master of melody & instrumentation, Vic Mizzy's, film - TV - Tv movie themes from throughout his career.

Info - http://filmscoremonthly.com/articles/2001/26_Mar---CD_Reviews_Vic_Mizzy_and_El_Cid.asp

Besides all his great themes from the period, I'm particularly interested in his themes for 2 tv movies of the week - The 13th Gate (sci-fi) & Terror on the 40th Floor (Towering Inferno knockoff of the same year)

The 13th Gate features a very eerie theremin instrumentation performed by Dr. Sam Hoffmann (a podiatrist) who did the theremin performance for the score to the film 'Spellbound'
There is virtually no info on this tv movie that I can find anywhere - not even an IMDB page.

But Vic talks about it in this Archive of American Television interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epmQMkSikVI

Terror on the 40th Floor (1974) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoAN6dEtymw


If anybody has this disc would you be interested in sharing ?
Also if anybody has any info at all about The 13th Gate movie in general, I would be very grateful for a head's up -
you'd think with every bit of other totally useless bullshit on the internet these days, some reference to this would be available - but nada !

Thanks in advance from a dedicated student of scoring's golden age.
