Miklos Rosza-EYE OF THE NEEDLE (1981) Royal Philharmonic Orchestra performance [FLAC]

This edition is from a bootleg pressed CD that contains the performance of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the composer, in England that was used in the finished film. This is not the Varese Sarabande LP or CD release which is a re-recording of the score made in Germany.

The quality of this recording: It is listenable, but it lacks the crispness and clarity you would fine in a release where it was mastered from a first generation quality element.

But now, lovers of this score can see the difference in instrumental performance between this film tracks recording and the album recording.

If anyone has a better sounding copy of this performance, please share.

Until then, enjoy.

Thanks for the share, alexp120, much appreciated!

Thanks for the share. My original Soundtrack Library CDR of this crapped out years ago.

A most interesting find alexp,and thank you so much for sharing it.

Thank you very much!!

Thank you so much!

Many thanks !

Thanks a lot!

Thank you! 🙂

Got that one. Unfortunately, the sound quality is SO poor it spoils the enjoyment of a very fine score. As much as I loathe some of the aspects of R�zsa’s re-recording from Nuremberg (bottom-heavy sound, slowed tempi), it’s still more enjoyable than this.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Thousand thanks for this really fantastic gem 🙂 It’s an outstanding score from one of the legendary golden age composers 🙂

Thanks for the share!

How’s life at Edgars Industries treating you Michael?

There is a little that can be done for this recording – not much, but a little – and when it sounds as bad as this, every little helps…

Some fairly intensive re-equalisation (using the Nuremberg recording as a point of comparison), a little light NR to counteract the hiss, wow and flutter removal, and a lowpass to get rid of that awful pilot noise just under 16khz.

@tangotreats:
Just listened to your remastering of track 1 Main Title/Prelude – Wow! Indeed this a great enhancement – it is like listening to a new source of the track,
much clearer and more transparent sound in the orchestra’s instruments.
Maybe you could remaster all the 41 tracks of Rozsa’s original RPO London recording
and upload it to this threat then?
Thanks for your great work!
Kind regards, Klaus.

Seconded! Should be possible with a "batch-enhancement"! 😀

Thanks for the share much appreciated!

Can you post a link so as I can download the full artwork? Thanks in advance!

This is a bootleg, which usually don’t feature glossy high res full artwork (booklets), but rather mostly poor made front and back covers. These low res scans are all that are available:
