Sometimes I feel like going psycho. It's been one of those semesters for me. Although it has not been possible to spoil you kind readers as you were last year for the Halloween Countdown, I still have a couple treats in store that I hope you enjoy.
During the Halloween Countdown of 2008, Zer0_II posted the score for 1960's Psycho and mentioned in his post that there was a re-recording conducted by the maestro himself in 1975. Rejoice in morbid glee for today, you get that re-recording of this horrific masterpiece. There have been modern re-recordings, namely those by Joel McNeeley and Danny Elfman respectively, but in my opinion the 1975 version still reigns.
This is one of those works that I will never tire of hearing. Although Hitchcock's film itself is a classic and worth seeing, mostly for its historical value in my opinion, it does lack a certain punch by today's standards as has been noted by many fans. Herrmann's music on the other hand is timeless and will stick with you to the grave. Sleep tight!

Haven't watched the movie probably in a decade, so will take this offering to change that and - while doing so - being musically perfectly prepared. Thank you!
