High Speed Background Sound

[Pinball Wizard]

Anybody have a recording of the High Speed soundtrack? My soundboard is dead in my High Speed, haven't had the time to fool with it (but had the time to play it...(don't make your mame cabinet work first)). I have had that itch to hear it again as it has been a long time.

I would agree High Speed was the most profitable game ever. Back in the 80's I went to the local distributor looking to purchase another machine to put on location and as soon as I played it once I knew it would pay off quick. Bought it NIB, brought it to my house, played it a few times, put down the mylar sheet that came with it (which paid off for what I've seen on High Speed playfields), and out to location where it paid off faster than I even expected. Still own it today and still enjoy it. I was lucky enough to talk to Steve Ritchie at Pinball Expo 2009 and his is such a comic. Great guy, wish I had the money to put him back into the pinball business.

I like High Speed but after that... meh.  Too many toys all the time.

Sorry, but Steve Ritchie sucks.  I mean, I can get past being the only collector to get a death threat from him, but let's get real - he peaked at Black Knight and hasn't done anything great since.  His games are the epitome of flash in the pan.

I think that it was after Black Knight 2000 that his games were not that good. I do think that it wasn't him so much as an industry that pushed him to all the toys and other over-crowding crap. Talking to him he wasn't a big fan of a lot of his game either but it was what Williams/Bally/Stern wanted. I did talk to the only remaining Stern Pinball designer (for over an hour person to person...) and he is fed up with Stern. I used to think that the designers were the reason that most Stern games lack innovation but after talking to him it's Gary Stern. Meh... Maybe I'm falling for lies but I am more poised to believe that Gary is to blame not the designers anymore.

To bring it back to what I was looking for in this topic: Anyone actually have a recording of the High Speed music? Might incline me to put my other projects to the side and work on that background sound board.

Get in touch with Brendan... he had the website with all the game music...

Thanks, I contacted him, he didn't have access to his game music but he did point me in the direction on PinMAME sound command editor and that PinMAME let you record .wav files directly in it.
