chuck 154 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Not great, but certainly not unwelcome.For those who knows JG music it definitely has a certain familiarity to other JG scores but in an era of RC dominated sounds it's certainly a welcome reprieve. I for one never knew about this score until Tadlow. So yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4,643 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 It still features a lot of things which made JG supreme in those years, even the love theme gets some irrestistible flowering workout totally untypical for later Goldsmith. Even the suspense material always has interesting layers going on, the action music is in the more streamlined 90's manner (Car Chase).It would be foolish to expect FINAL CONFLICT - it's a mousy little thriller, after all. Think of it as Goldsmith's MONSIGNOR: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 They should re-record the complete Lionheart! And Rambo 3. That's what I've been saying for months. Can't say Salamander is that great compared to other Goldsmith of that era A Goldsmith score that's not that great to his other output from 82/83 can still be a really good Goldsmith score. Maybe it's the performance? It's a first rate performance. Incanus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good version of the Wyatt-Earp-myth and Goldsmith responds with one of his maximum-focused character scores with just enough thematic gusto and outward action pieces that it doesn't lose itself in introspective character study. The original UA album was around 31 minutes in length (condensed from around 55 minutes of score) and sounded suspiciously good for the period so the question 'why re-record it?' looms rather large. Indeed the most important stuff was released so the main interest here is to listen to an ace-Goldsmith score from a period where he could do no wrong recorded with modern techniques and it sure is interesting how close it sounds to the original even with the added bass and the more spacious recording - the idiosyncratic orchestrations are not to be tamed. The RED PONY suite is a fitting addition, so if you don't want to shell out the dough for both albums, this Prometheus album is a good starting point, even if the mouth-watering prospect of a modern-sounding 100 RIFLES (Goldsmith most ferocious western score) seems much more alluring than HOUR OF THE GUN, which is a great score but due to the nature of the film in a more subdued way. This came out EIGHT YEARS AGO????!!! NO WAY!😗😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
