You know,I’m embarrassed to admit I never heard Waxman’s Prince Valiant but this is terrific!
So good isn’t it? Now you know how I felt when I first heard it all those years ago! Eye opening!
Hi Eric,
just wanted to say thanks for your fantastic program, your selections are always spot on. 🙂 I am familiar with Prince Valiant, it’s a great score!

Thanks for the heads up!
By far my favourite episode. I’ picked up three scores I didn’t already own based on what you played. Thank you and congratulations on a great episode.
Wow! Quite a compliment! I’m so happy I was able to introduce you to few “new” scores!
