BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I personally have Glory, Legends of the Fall and Braveheart, all of which I love. I would dearly love to get Rocketeer, the two Zorro scores and probably Willow (I say probably because I have neither seen the film nor heard excerpts from the score). Yea yea I know his self plaigarising acts but at the very least he repeats the good stuff. I personally think the Sons of Scotland motif is a superior variation of the Glory theme. Anyway, which CDs would you personally get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Get The Rocketeer! Awesome adventure score. The main theme is just one of Horner's best and is superbly flowing heroic music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crichton 4 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Get Willow any way you can. With the exception of ST II, possibly Horner's best work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futuremartymcfly 0 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 i like alot of horner's work, and i have a good deal of them, but i guess i would want Star Trek II, and Spitfire Grill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego 21 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I ordered Willow and Rocketeer from amazon although they haven't arrived, both are great, especially Willow and I'm really looking forward to them. I may be the only one but I think Land Before Time is also excellent, I'd love to get it but is OOP and rather expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I have The Name of the Rose, Willow and Casper. I think Glory, Legends of the Fall, Field of Dreams are all very enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Ware 526 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Don't bother with Willow, buy Krull!And Sneakers. One of Horner's best (despite the lifts from Beethoven and Philip Glass, and the omnipresent danger motif). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 His best IMO:ST2 Wrath of KhanLand Before TimeAn American TailKrullCocoonRocketeerProject X(just got this recently,fantastic)CasperSneakersK.M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sulky 6 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Yes, Krull is definitely worth getting!Star Trek II and III are worthy purchases,as well as Aliens - one of Horner's best action scores.Some other ones to consider: Brainstorm and Cocoon.

Seth 67 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I recommend Apollo 13; the album release has a lot of songs and dialogue, but I think the score is well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitch 57 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I recommend you get as many James Horner CDs as you possibly can and when you've that accomplished start again with Bernard Herrmann CDs. Forget about that hack John Williams. He's yesterday bantha fodder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly recommended. Unfortunate that the commercial album has all those songs interspersed in between the score tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
