Ollie 1,059 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 http://shopping.netsuite.com/s.nl/c.ACCT67...f?category=-101Nice suprise.While nowhere near Williams' work it still is a decent score. I had the LP back in my younger days.The only thing I didn't like was the use of the "Jaws" theme. Its used very weakly thru out the score.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 That's right, but I don't want Jaws 2 bad enough to spend a minimum of $40 on it, especially when I already have the mp3 files! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Actually, some of those clips sound pretty good. I like the pulsing, quasi-celebratory music. Not enough to buy the album, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artyjeffrey 20 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I think I have an LP transfer of this, (honestly) stuck under the passenger side front seat of my car.

As a matter of fact, right now, I'm going to go out in the freezing cold to try and get it out of there.If I can't even find it, I will officially be freaked out.

Ollie 1,059 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 I know, I had planned on not buying any of the Intrada releases last night until I saw the Jaws 3D title, plus after listening to the sound clips of the other scores I bought One Night With The King. I skipped the Jerry Fielding score.This is the first year that I've actually gave my wife a Christmas list of film scores and where to purchase them.....

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Parker's opening music and the score for the destruction of Bruce III are excellent.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It is a good score, but overall it does not equal the Williams scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 But is it worth getting? I generally don't like scores with too much "dead music" or melodicless action music (e.g. WotW). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDarkOrb 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Indy4: Good decision. If you're looking for something memorable and exiting, then you'll get it. It's a good score. Maybe not as well written as the first two, but still. Some damn fine tunes in there (those being the Main Title, the SeaWorld Theme, the "Saved By The Dolphins" cue and "The Shark's Gonna Hit Us!" cue, which uses a repeated string line that gains intensity until the orchestra finally reaches obvilion.I just think that alot of people overlook the score, because of the bashing that Jaws 3 gets all the time. Personally, I don't think the movie was as bad as most people make it out to be. I find the flick highly entertaining. Actually I found it to be...pretty disturbing in alot of parts with the shark. I mean cmon...a dude gets eaten alive! And the shark has almost no facial expressions whatsoever, is pale white, and is over 30 feet long (pretty f'n big compared to the one in the first two). I like how Parker uses these ultra low strings to score the shark, which I think worked very nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 While I disagree with you enjoyment of the movie, I am very optomistic that the score will be worth it, and that only helped. I'm glad to see more people here know about this score, I don't regret my purchase at all. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrygollay 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I bought the score on 83 , but I will not do it again , there is some good material on it but some are copy/past of "rite of spring" and "First Blood" only the "main titles "with its fanfare reprised from a TV show that Parker scored in the 80' s retain my attention,as well as the love theme which is fair, but the whole score is far to be as good as its predecessors...

Ollie 1,059 Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Actually the mechanical shark is Jaws III looked the most realistic of the 4 Bruces. I will say this for Jaws III, it was better than Jaws The Revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
