Yay! Another contributor in this thread! 🙂

Good reading of LOGAN’S RUN there, Nick. I saw the film years ago, and was struck by some of the same things you talk about.

I also got the FSM CD, but I wasn’t ready for it at the time. Synths or no synths. It was all too challenging, cold, abrasive even. So I proceeded to sell or trade off the CD. I never re-acquired it, not even as digital files. But maybe it’s time I revisit it now. I’ve always been critical of Goldsmith’s synth noodlings, especially from the 80s onwards, but there’s no question he was quite cutting edge with them in the 60s and 70s. SECONDS is another example. Maybe I’m more ready for it now.
