Hi guys,
I was a huge fan of the Harry Person Super Disc List which he used to relase with irregular intervals in TAS in the good old days. HP started from fresh with this concept when he opened his first webpage project www.hpsoundings.com but that website has now merged with another one I don't remember the name of and HP seems to be lost in action.
What I particularly liked about the HP Super Disc List was his recomendations for movie sound tracks. Not many other places offer really high quality audiophile recomendation for movie soundtracks and over the years the HP list has not been updated the number of great movie soundtracks worth checking out has probably been quite a few. So I suggest we start our own thread here because I can see no other place more qualified to come with such recomendations outside HP himself. So please bring forward your recomendations if you have any.
