A Score To Settle Podcast - Episode 25, Guest Jeff Bond, author, album producer and editor at Geek Magazine

Welcome to the next new episode of the podcast! In this installment, I talk with Jeff Bond, the author of books such as "The World of The Orville" and "The Music of Star Trek", plus a noted soundtrack album producer who has penned liner notes for hundreds of albums, the editor at Geek Magazine and an all-around favorite among fans in the community. I ask him about his personal history as a fan of music for film and television, then we discuss his recent album projects such as THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD (Jerry Goldsmith, 1975) and the multi-disc sets of music from LAND OF THE GIANTS, LOST IN SPACE and the original STAR TREK. In talking Jerry Goldsmith, we cover his evolving musical style over the course of his expansive career, from those dissonant, challenging early scores to the more lush and tonal efforts of his later years. 

I hope that everyone who listens will enjoy the episode and forgive any technical and factual gaffes. This was my first interview conducted over Skype and honestly, next time will be different as it bothers me that I didn't mix both Jeff and me into one track. Oh well!
