    Defiance James Newton Howard

    Perhaps it's a little too easy to call this Howard's Schindler's List. But that's certainly what springs to mind after repeat listens.
    Without a doubt one of my favourites from 2008.

    I think it's his most powerful and emotional work. Does that make it his best? Who knows. I just know it's a top 5 Horner score for me.

    NP : READY WHEN YOU ARE JB - John Barry



    Possibly the best album Barry did in conducting his own material with some fantastic arrangements of popular and not so popular melodies and themes, including a corking version of On Her Majesty's Secret Service and a jazzed up theme from The Lion In Winter ( complete with Hammond organ....believe me, it's cool as fuck ), best of all is the loungy Who Will Buy My Yesterdays, an incidental piece from OHMSS expanded here to a full 4 minutes, likewise The More Things Change which I guess is an unused piece from OHMSS? I don't believe anyone knows anything about it and I've never heard Barry mention it either, a real oddity but golly geez it's friggin lovely.

    Until the recent 4 CD Themependium set some of the tracks here had never seen the light of day on any other album.

    Raiders will always remain my most personal and favourite score of the trilogy, but this is ridiculously close especially now with its expanded treatment. It's one of those "This is why I'm a film music fan" scores.

    Temple of the Doom is darker, more exotic and the action writting is more complex, but The last crusade has my favourites themes the trilogy and this kind of action music using march rythms wich i love.

    Probably I choose Temple of The Doom as my favourite Indy score, and one of my all time favourites.

    NP:Temple of the Doom (williams)

    To call its main theme life affirming is no exaggeration. Of course it takes a little imagination of the listener, but then doesn't all music? Not everyone is willing to hear the magic of music. Right?

    NP : THE CLASSIC - John Barry



    Yet another Barry comp, this time courtesy of Nic Raine and the City of Prague, it's not bad at all but I wish people would stop saying how brilliant they always interpret Barry's work because they DON'T, all I can say is that those same people obviously don't know Barry's work very well to make comments like that.

    Regardless, this is enjoyable enough.

    Indeed! To Pankot Palace is astonishingly good! shocked love

    Raiders will always be the best Indy score overall, Temple will be the most experimental, but Crusade seems to be the best one on CD. This expanded release really puts it on the top of my list.

    I was playing : wanted (Elfman)

    wow, the main theme is so dammed addictive...

    The action stuff with electric guitars, string progressions and some dramatic statements are really cool.

    Im no a great fan of elfman, but this year he gave to me 2 scores wich i really adore.


    NP:Kung Fu Panda

    Seriously, I can't understand why some people can see how superb this score is.

    Epic, tender, funny, dramatic, action....Very rich in orchestrations. You can't ask for more.

    I can't enought ears to hear this over rich use of chinese arrangements.

    I hope someday we will know more about the scoring process of this score ( i don't know if in the DVD), but both composers has blend very well his style here.

    PS: Demetris did you saw the movie? because this score fits like very few Zimmer scores does in the movie.

    Indeed. Listening this one right now. When you think of Poledouris the first that comes to mind is Conan (The Barbarian), but he has so many great works (Amerika and Lonesome Dove among my favs) that is difficult to choose which one do you actually wanna listen.

    Playing this as well atm... Funny how great music will always remain great, no matter how old you get.

    Surely one of the best Goldsmith ever wrote! Currently playing the 3rd Cloud track, and this music is stunning!!!
