LOTR - The Two Towers & Return Of The King
The perfect accompaniment to waiting for Christmas dinner to cook.
Why? Are you eating at midnight?
We did the usual thing of going round to a neighbors to drink wine and chat nonsense to a bunch of people we hardly ever see. I actually said "see you next year" when I left. God knows who half of them even were. -

This morning I played John Barry's THE LION IN WINTER as I have done every Christmas day for the last 33 years ( except the few occasions where I spent Christmas abroad ), what can I say, a true genius of a score, brilliant!
NP : AMERICANS - John Barry
WOW! It's been so long since I've heard this, and this new CD from Universal France brings out little details I barely noticed before, this work is going to get a lot more plays from me, it's truly brilliant and a great 'feel good' listen.
p.s. it's a jazz album Barry did in 1976, nothing to do with film scores.
I'm just so damned tempted to play AMERICANS straight thriough again but I'm going to save it for later.
In the meantime I'm going to play some more Barry brilliance and this one even has a Christmas flavour to it.
NP : ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE - John Barry

Hopefully with a bit of alcohol in you which will no doubt allow you to enjoy it more! (Not that that's needed of course. ) -

The Four Feathers (James Horner)
One of his strongest of the decade IMO. I love the wailing female vocals which provides for plenty of emotional feedback during the score, especially during the brilliant track 'The Mahdi'. The overall sound is hardly original (typical post-2000 Horner) yet powerful and varied enough to keep interest all the way through the lengthy album. The themes are nice and make for great foundations for the many synthesized and orchestral layers the score has, with some gorgeous arrangements in 'The Letters'. The finale cue 'A Coward No Longer' gives me the biggest emotional wallop, ending an always satisfying listen.
Hoping Avatar (when I will finally listen to it outside the film) will be as good."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

I´m in a strong Horner mood lately and I´ve been revisiting some of his post 2000 works: The Perfect Storm, Four Feathers, The Missing, Enemy at the Gates, The New World, All the King's Men, etc.... we can criticise him as much as we want / like, but he is one of my favourite composers and one of the most talented.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

Totally agree! THE FOUR FEATHERS Is Very strong Score and Great Music on it's Own. Khan's Voice is very uniqe and well for Me doesn't sound like orgasmic voice at all but whatever for whoever likes -

I played the song and theme a few times today, since I was humming it over the past few days. What a theme and song! I totally love it, and it indeed has a Christmassy atmosphere.Kazoo -

I didn't get to see it in the end. (Everything conspired against me on the day I was meant to, not least my immune system having impeccable timing by allowing me to have Man Flu. )
So.... next week, hopefully. -

It does. It's also one of my all time favourite songs, a true evergreen that'll never lose it's lustre. I believe lyricist Hal David considered it his favourite song of all the ones he'd written, that's quite something when you consider how many classics he wrote with Burt Bacharach.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

Just sooooooo brilliant! I just had to play it again and if I posted this at 'Off Topic' barely anyone will notice. Easily in my top 10 releases this decade

NP: Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince - Nicholas Hooper
I stopped following Potter movies since Order Of Phoenix, so I haven't heard any of Hooper's scores in context. At least nothing on this album grabbed my attention ... except one of the JW's themes on the track 1. (Was it from Prisoner Of Azkaban? I don't remember which)Labels are for cans, not people. - Anthony Rapp -
