Too bad that Leroy Shields was not appreciated for his work on the Hal Roach film soundtracks of the 1930s as much as he should have been. One story goes he work was just kind of thrown in with the deal for Victor to provide sound for the Roach shorts on their dime. Since Shields was Victor's A&R man in LA at the time he got ther job and I wonder just what was his reward for that timeless music he created. Was it just considered a part of his job? Does anyone know about this matter?

I love this music! It was as creative and inventive as Laurel & Hardy were in their acting. Do you know the name of the tune that was played as they were trying to sneak in and get the deed in Way Out West? The real suspenseful one.

Absolutely brilliant music, echoes from such great times. Sometimes it makes me sad that in the modern world hardly anyone appreciates this music anymore. And no-one seems to be able to compose it any longer. Listen to the radio - what went wrong? Will the days of this fantastic ever return? Great job, thanks!

I can't even begin to guess how long that took you to edit. A real labour of love.

This how it all had to be done for the Beau Hunks to record as there was no sheet music saved. All of the songs, the way I understand it, had to be from spliced films such as shown here. Thank God for The Beau Hunks dedication or we would not have the chance to listen to these selections from Roy Shield...one of the best!
