Presenting the world premiere release of acclaimed composer James Horner’s (ALIENS, GLORY, TITANIC, AVATAR) score to the 1995 Paramount Pictures feature film JADE, starring David Caruso, Linda Fiorentino and Chazz Palminteri, directed by William Friedkin. Previously unavailable in any format, this release of Horner’s erotically charged, Asian-tinged score finally takes its place in his soundtrack canon of notable 1990’s works. 1995 proved to be an especially successful year for Mr. Horner, having released scores to such films as CASPER, BRAVEHEART, APOLLO 13, JUMANJI and BALTO. This release of JADE now fills the hole in one of his most important years as a composer!

 

Produced for La-La Land Records by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by Mike Matessino from ½ inch Paramount vault materials, this release contains bonus tracks that include Loreena McKennitt’s “The Mystic’s Dream” and the classical piece “Le Sacre du Printemps,” both of which are featured in the film’s score. Exclusive, in-depth liner notes by Daniel Schweiger feature comments from the film’s director, William Friedkin. Art direction is by Mark Banning.

Be like David Caruso in Jade.

[Nemesis 245]

I will pass on this one. Too much other - for me - important releases at the moment.

[Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488]

I guess I just never realized how damn many scores Horner put out in 1995.

I'm buying it!! I love Horner. Not as much as Williams, obviously. But he's my second favorite. Awesome that they put time and money into this to get it released.
