Heheh, soundtrack mah lain Ndah Njaaa deehhh njaaaaa, gue beli BSG. Seandainya ada BSG yang lama yah huhu, gue dah masukin ke wishlist Amazon, sekitar $90, tapi2 lama2 apus aja deh...
Ngom2 Battlestar Galactica, gue kebetulan banget baru2 ini nemu wawancara Eric Lichtenfeld dengan Stu Phillips yang bikin musik Battlestar Galactica (dan juga Knight Rider, hmmmmmm siapaaa yang ngga tau musik Knight Rider??? Heheh pasti ada ya, yang ngga nonton Knight Rider waktu masi diputar di TV doeloe). Mbaca wawancara ini mengingatkan pada beberapa hal, "...known as earth"-nya Lorne Greene, nama Glen A. Larson kayaknya terpatri di ingatan, nama besar karena beberapa seri, Six Million Dollar Man, Fall Guy, dll. dll. Beberapa taun yang lalu gue baru tau bahwa BSG dulu sempat terancam mati bujang karena dituduh nyontek Star Wars, di sini disebut-sebut soal itu. EL: What were your influences on Galactica? SP: What inspired me was that Glen had to deliver a print to the network at a certain date, and there was no time to score it. So I tracked this whole movie with the music of Shostakovich, Stravinsky, Gustav Holst, William Walton. Glen let me sit there when the network was there. He allowed me to be in the room with them. And it was a very happy meeting. The network was happy, the studio was happy, Glen was happy, I was happy. Glen looks at me and says, “I want the score I just heard.” I said, “You can’t have it because you can’t afford it: Stravinsky isn’t public domain, Shostakovich isn’t public domain. Honegger, Holst, Walton, none of these people are public domain. It will cost you a small fortune. And then it would have to be played, because this music would be easily identifiable by symphony orchestra conductors. You’d have to pay for the recordings, for sync licenses like you wouldn’t believe.” So he said, “You know what I mean. Steal it.” I said, “I can’t steal it. If I steal it, I’m gonna be sued. Not you, not the studio. Me.” Then he said, “What I want is a similar score.” I said, “That I can do.” EL: But you didn’t record the score at Universal.... SP: I was in the office with Harry Garfield, who was the head of music at Universal, and he had Ernest Fleischman of the Los Angeles Philharmonic on the line. Harry said, “We can’t record it at Universal. It’s not big enough for a 100-piece orchestra.” Ernest said, “Can we record it at Twentieth Century Fox?” Harry went, “Oh, God, Fox is suing us.” You see, by that time, Glen and Universal were being sued by Fox, that this was a rip-off of Star Wars. Now, I had to fight doing anything like John Williams did, which was impossible, because all of John Williams’s music came from Arthur Honegger, William Walton and Gustav Holst! So Garfield calls Lionel Newman at Twentieth and says, “We got a thing we’re doing called Battlestar Galactica.” “Oh, I heard of that fucking thing. We’re suing you, aren’t we?” Harry says, “Yeah. Well guess what, Lionel? I’d like to record the music at Fox.” Lionel says, “Be my guest, you asshole. Schmuck, you want to record here? We’re suing you!” This is the conversation between these two music heads, giants of the industry. Lionel then says, “Who’s gonna conduct this piece of shit?” “Well, Stu Phillips.” “He can do this?” Now I’ve gotta tell you: Lionel Newman signed my entry card into the Motion Picture Academy. “Hey, not my picture,” he says. “Do whatever you want. Nice talking to you, Harry. Good doing business. When we sue you, we’ll collect all the money.” Now you gotta understand, at Fox, Lionel Newman’s best friend, and like his son, was John Williams. So I have to go to Fox to conduct the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra playing Galactica while Fox is claiming that Galactica is a rip-off of Star Wars. On the third day of scoring, Glen comes over. He hadn’t been there the first two days; he was busy cutting up the picture. He says, “I’ve got good news for you.” I said, “What? You stopped cutting?” He said, “John Williams, officially, in writing, said that he doesn’t feel that anything Stu Phillips is writing is stolen from Star Wars. That what he’s doing is as original as any music for a movie that’s the same as another movie could possibly be.” So he declared that nobody was going to sue me.
