Franke wasn't going to do it, they had somone named Evan Chen (I think)
doing the music.  Something widly criticized in B5: A call to arms, the
"prequel" as it were to B5 Crusade.  JMS kept insisting that if we gave
the guy a chance, we'd come to love his music as much as Chen, and he
just wanted to go in a new direction so it wouldn't be seen too much as
a clone of the first show...
