Coming this spring there will be a CD release of composer George Greeley's original background score for My Favorite Martian. There are about 23 tracks taken from the original master recordings done at Desilu Studio from 1963-65.
I've heard an exclusive preview of the music and the quality is sharp and clear, as if you were there for the live recordings! It runs about 75 minutes. This is going to be a limited release CD with only 3,000 being available. I'm sure more details will become known as we get closer to the release date later this spring. |

George Greeley is one of the unsung composers of "sitcom" music [along with Earle Hagen, Vic Mizzy and Wilbur Hatch]- and his scores for "MFM" are among the best! Find out where this CD is available....And GET it!!!!

I particularly liked Greeley's "sunspots" cue in "Going, Going, Gone". Shimmering and mysterious.....I know that won't be a part of the upcoming release.

There are so many tracks to choose from, we have a similar track to "sunspots" I'm sure you won't be anything but thrilled.
The arrangements are amazing in just how complex each one becomes as you listen, yet at the same time the music is so seamless in it's style. the music becoming sound fx is just so interesting you can just sit back and picture the action on each track. |

The background music for My Favorite Martian has always been one of my favorites. Wild Wild West is another unsung hero for great background music. So, when's this My Favorite Martian CD coming out? It's July now and still no sign of the My Favorite Martian CD, I'm anxious to get it. Also, while I'm dreaming, will the Wild Wild West TV show music ever come out on CD???

just to let you know the company releasing the CD is La
La Land Records. I'm not sure where they will sell them, but they can be ordered on line at their site. www.lalalandrecords.com. The album is really wonderful, and will make smile from moment to moment....it just has a really enjoyable vibe to it. |

I checked out La La last week before you mentioned it here, but nothing said. I checked it again today and still no announcement or mention of My Favorite Martian. Are they trying to keep their release a secret? Their website says nothing about it.

Still No Mention on La La Website
Well, it's now August, the month the CD was supposed to be out and the La La Land Website still has no mention of it's release. It's not even in the "New Release" section. Hmm, I'm beginning to lose faith.

I just checked their website again and see no mention of this CD? If they were planning on releasing a Soundtrack for the series wouldn't they at least mention it on their site? especially when the supposed release date is in 2 days?
