As a kid, I had a 45 of Theme From E.T. by Walter Murphy. While not a top 40 hit (got to #47), does anyone know if this exists on CD anywhere. Can't seem to find it.

Thanks.

Thanks eriejwg.

I just picked up a new copy off of ebay. Found it for $9.99 which is signficanlty less than that other seller ($96.84....are u kidding me?)

Also glad that I can check "The Minotaur" by Dick Hyman off my list (even though it is the LP version). "Synth Me Up" seems like only 1 of 2 cd's that it is available on.

Thanks again.

I can't stand it when greedy sellers list CDs at outrageously high prices. This is especially true of unopened various artist compilations (even recent ones). I think sellers just check to see if anyone else is selling it online and if not, well, it must be super rare and therefore valuable. In reality, most of these complications are in such low demand that nobody bothers to sell them online--they just end up in the bins at used shops. Sorry for the rant!

there is a "like new" copy listed for less than 5 dollars on amazon marketplace as well. Should always check there first because if there are multiple sellers, the price usually tends to be lower (although someone still has it listed for almost 100 bux).

I'd be curious if there are other 45 versions on that CD. Notably, the Theme from The Exorcist.

Got the disc this week. Here are the times:

Peter Gunn - 3:55
Tubular Bells - 4:15
I Robot - 6:02
Theme From E.T. - 3:58
Crockett's Theme - 3:27
Outta Space - 4:10
Chase - 3:39
The Minotaur - 8:32
Axel F. - 3:01
Rain Forest - 4:20
Popcorn - 2:32
The Rockford Files - 3:13
Frankentein - 4:44

To the experts on the Chatboard, do any of these stick out as 45 versions.
