    Playing By Heart - John Barry

    One of his very best. An absolutely sumptuous listening experience.


    An excellent late evening listen.

    NP: Safe House - Ramin Djawadi

    Very enjoyable score. The movie was equally as good and the score worked well. I was a bit iffy about this score when I first listened to it, but seeing the movie really turned me into really liking it.

    Whispers In the Dark - Thomas Newman

    Early Thomas Newman, orchestral, noirish. Very good. One of the themes from Angels in America is in here.

    Are you saying Newman recycled himself? Horrors!

    Observing the fact and complaining about it are two very different things.
  5. NP: The Village (James Newton Howard)

    One of the peak scores of its decade. I wouldn't mind seeing the film again actually, as I suspect it's starting to look pretty good as the Marvelization, Trilogisation and Prequelization of Hollywood nears completion. Very moving music.

  7. Jerry Goldsmith - Chinatown

    This brilliant release was in the mail today. Intelligent score, amazing theme, what also can you want? And some jazz standards to boot. Liner notes by Robert Townson are very good, better than what he wrote for Lonely Are the Brave, I'd say.

    Glad to own it.

    A great album that never outstays it's welcome and that includes the period tracks that are an utter joy too.

    A 10/10 album for me.

    The short time of the album really helps, it's very well-rounded. Except the classic theme, my favourite moment of the score itself is The Last of Ida, a brilliant suspense-to-action score.

    The story behind the score is fascinating in itself and while a friend of mine did tell me most of it (I still haven't heard Lambro's rejected work, but that friend said it's total crap that misunderstood the whole *point* of the movie), the liner notes wrap it up very nicely.

    NP: Chinatown - Jerry Goldsmith

    I've had this album in my digital collection since 2004. I've had the physical album for even longer than that but this is the first time in probably 10 years that I've given the entire album a "spin." shame I will never neglect this masterpiece ever again.

    Troy - James Horner

    The film may be a misguided attempt at crafting an old-fashioned epic, but there is little that is misguided about the score, which is remarkably coherent and enjoyable considering it was written in two and a half hours or whatever it was. I'm sure it would be far more highly-regarded if it hadn't replaced such a beloved rejected score.

  15. For all my annoyance at the 4 note motif at the time, if he'd only ever used it in that score, that would have been the right one.

  16. I'd say rather Enemy at the Gates, but it does work well as purely rhythmic device here.

    The best use of the four note danger motif is in Star Trek II and Willow!

    More appropriate in that film I'd say.

    Yeah, but someone now won't necessarily play them in that order. wink

    Well, all the reviewers hated Madagascar 1 and 2 as well, and I loved the score on those, even though there wasn't much. I think combining the score from Madagascar 3 with the score from the two other movies, I'll have compiled the ultimate album in enjoyability.

  29. PROMETHEUS

    Can't say I'm enjoying the album... very low key, some very dull cues, Goldenthal-esque horror (but nowhere near Elliot's golden touch) and only a couple of memorable moments, essentially those featuring the Gregson-Williams theme. The music is better presented in the film IMO. Not sure if I want to revisit the album.
