Grails of his CD collection>
Paul, are you telling me that you have a CD of the HIGHLANDER soundtrack?
Not the Queen album A KIND OF MAGIC, but the HIGHLANDER soundtrack featuring
Queen's work?
Not the more-or-less recently released score by Michael Kamen, but the
soundtrack to HIGHLANDER?
I wasn't aware that this particular disc had *EVER BEEN MADE*, since I've
been looking for it since 1984 or thereabouts. Saw the movie during the one
week in the US when it was on big screens, promptly went out looking for the
soundtrack album. Checked every two or three days for eight months before
giving up.
I know die-hard Queen fans, fans with connections with Brian May and
company, who have given up on ever seeing that, in any form, let alone on
CD.
If this is what you're telling me, I was wondering if you might *PRIVATELY*
email me with any identifying particulars (label, catalog number, copyright
info), and maybe a scan of the cover so I can at least know what it looks
like.
Many thanks.

Just for the record, Vangelis isn't a "they," it's a "he." That's his
first
name (his family name being something Greek that I can't pronounce, let
alone spell).
