[Thor Joachim Haga]

Yay! Finally reached Thomas Newman in my collection walkthrough. Will spend quite a bit of time only listening to him now (I have 30 Newman albums), inbetween sampling new scores. Kicking off with the double-header of MAKING MR. RIGHT (1987) and DESPERATELY SEEKING SUSAN (1985), which is the earliest I’ve got. Since I only have this album digitally, and never really investigated the cover, I always assumed MAKING MR. RIGHT was a Newman score too, until – a few years ago – I was alerted to the fact that it’s by Chaz Jankel (of K2 fame). Oops! Both are fine scores either way.
