Music + Micheal Reeves book

Hi, has anyone here read Benjamin Haligan's book on Michael Reeves - well worth tracking down if you haven't. Another good one is John Hamilton's Beasts in the Cellar about Tony Tenser.

As to the music, I met Nicky Hensen in the mid 1990's and he told me that some of the music had just been released on a CD containing Horror Themes, but I have never been able to track it down. I know the music was owned by De Woolf at one stage. It turns up in a number of Minder episodes as well as Monty Python & The Holy Grail and Adventures of a Private Eye. I don't know if Ferris sold the music to De Woolf or Tigon did? Although, it states on the IMDb, that in 1987 MGM/UA refused to pay royalties to Ferris for the video release of Witchfinder General (1968) and brought in Kendall Schmidt to re-score the movie on a lower budget. I can't remember if this is talked about in Haligan's book?

Ironic that Ferris died from a drug overdose just like Reeves. Reeves' death was listed as suicide just like Ferris's - but we now know Reeves' death was more than likely accidental. Also John Coquillon, who photographed Witchfinder, supposedly commited suicide. The curse of Matthew Hopkins??? An astute studio publicist would have a field day with this.
