This was especially shocking to me, as (like many of Poledouris' fans) I had no idea he was ill, and was hoping that he would burst out of semi-retirement with a new score any day now.
I hope that we see some more attention being paid to the neglected parts of his filmography now, as happened when Jerry Goldsmith and Elmer Bernstein passed away, because there's an awful lot of beautiful music that was never released during his lifetime.
The eerie thing is, I updated his wiki entry on Last.FM the day before Poledouris died...I said that he was semi-retired to explain his lack of recent scores. If only, if only.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
