    Yeah it's a 1983 film starring Tommy Lee Jones and Michael O'Keefe. I didn't even know if its existence until I produced the soundtrack!! wink

    Sound clips have been up here since Tuesday...

    I consider a project a success when Thor says he won't buy it
  2. it sounds really interesting, but I'll wait and see if it really is what they say, never heard of the score to begin with
    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh
  3. Is there a decent recording of his Mississippi Burning score, ie. without dialogues? I saw the amazing film for the second time yesterday and I loved the score in context.

    I can't remember the score at all but the film is very good.

    The film is known in Europe as "Savage Islands" , they never used the title "Nate And Hayes" over here .
    I saw it at the cinema when it originally came out and loved it . It's old fashioned swashbuckling fun !
    I picked up the DVD about a year ago . I remember loving the main theme but I'll have to refresh my
    memory for the rest of the music . This is certainly one I'm gonna look into ... smile

    I found that score snooze-inducing. Give me AEGIS anyday.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Aegis is lovely, indeed. Nate and Hayes is a more fun, actiony score. Apples and oranges really.

    They're completely different. Probably my two favourite Jones scores.

    well, I wasn't exactly inspired after Aegis the first time I heard it, guess we think differently on that part

    I must say that the sound quality of Nate and Hayes could've been better, perhaps that's a reason it didn't struck a nerve with you?

    I don't see how anyone can call that theme 'snooze-inducing', but I guess this isn't Demetris' type of thing. More the pity really, I think it's fantastic.

    Review of Nate and Hayes


    Nice review Thomas !

    I personally love Savage Islands , and it doesn't bother me one bit that most of the OST has been build around the main 'swashbuckling' theme and the love theme . It's FUN , it's ACTION packed - it's 40 minutes pure bliss for me !

    thanks Eric, glad you liked it

    Ps, it has 2 themes, most of the music of today doesn't even have one main theme, so it's goddamn amazing wink

    Well, if you believe that only soft music and generally boring underscore can send you to sleep, that is wink

    But yeah, it's not my kind of thing, nor what i expect to hear from Trevor Jones.

    Are you sure you're talking about Nate and Hayes? With its big, swashbuckling, Cutthroat Island-like main theme and Miklos Rozsa-style love theme? Fine if you don't like it, but it's hardly "soft music" or "generally boring underscore"!

    D. sometimes employs such epithets when they really do not seem appropriate.

    I still marvel at how a magnificent, epic track like 'Les Grands Voiliers - Goémons' in Voyage En Ballon could in any way, shape or form be relegated to the pigeonhole "fluffy".

    I think he meant not only soft music and underscore can send you to sleep, i.e. something else. (It's the way he words things that confuses the best of us apparently. biggrin dizzy )

    He's not saying it's soft music and generally boring underscore. He is saying that music can be sleep-inducing for reasons besides those two.

    I haven't heard the score, but maybe the reason in this case is something along the lines of repetitive bombast?
    I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to!

    You're misreading what i said. My point is that NOT ONLY underscore can be boring.

    Nope. Not here. That's why I like it!

    Oh well, it takes all sorts.

    We get far too little of that these days, so if it's repeated all the better!

    It's not repeated, that's the point. It's varied. But if you want to make the album a bit more like HGW's Sinbad score then you can just burn yourself a CD with a thirty second extract of the main theme repeated 160 times - it'll just squeeze onto a CDR.

    You said you liked repetitive bombast, so I assume my suggested CDR would fit your needs better than the actual CD, which has a reasonable amount of variety.
