    HENRY MANCINI “10 ” ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK Would you believe that the score to “10” has never been out on CD in the U.S. (and only briefly out on CD in Europe on a spotty-sounding release)? This soundtrack has so much going for it—it was composed by one of the greatest soundtrack, nay, pop composers of all time, it featured the great Julie Andrews on vocals, a beautiful piano solo from Dudley Moore, and it was a charting soundtrack to a hit movie, for Pete’s sake! Not to mention that Mancini fans LOVE his work on this film, counting it among his best soundtrack ef- forts. So search us why it took till now to release this classic score on CD, but here it is, the original 1979 soundtrack album, courtesy of your popcorn-munching friends at Real Gone Music!

  • Tree Man Press Release Gravitas 12.2.20.Pdf
    **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** Niche Productions and PalMar Studios partners with Gravitas Ventures to Release “Chuck Leavell: The Tree Man” Documentary December 2, 2020 Dayton, OH (October 22, 2020) – Allen Farst, founder of Niche Productions, is thrilled to announce the signing of a distribution deal with Gravitas Ventures, a Red Arrow Studios Company, to release his latest film, “Chuck Leavell: The Tree Man,” a sterling documentary on the rock ‘n’ roll pianist/keyboardist often described as the “Fifth Rolling Stone.” The film will be released to several Video-On-Demand (VOD) outlets on December 2, 2020. Directed by Farst, “Chuck Leavell: The Tree Man” provides an epic, in-depth look into Leavell’s life both on and off the stage. Leavell has played and toured with the Rolling Stones since 1982, and his status as rock royalty may be equaled only by his stature within the world of environmental forestry, where he previously has been named the National Tree Farmer of the Year in the United States. It’s this fascinating combination of passions, coupled with more than 80 gripping interviews from legendary musicians with a combined 58 Grammy Awards, that already has produced quite the buzz for the film. The documentary captivated crowds recently at both the Macon Film Festival and Sedona International Film Festival, the latter of which recognized the film as the 2020 People’s Choice Award. “This is a MUST- SEE film for anyone who loves great music and great documentaries,” said Patrick Schweiss, Artistic Director of the Sedona International Film Festival. “Director Allen Farst has managed to capture the life of one of the great keyboard legends, Chuck Leavell, who has worked with all the greatest musicians…The Tree Man’ was a rousing hit at our festival, with audience members cheering and raving about the film!” I’ve seen plenty of rock documentaries in my many years, and this one honestly is one of the best rockumentaries you’ll ever see, said Ivor Levene of Goldmine Magazine.
