- Comment [b]THE MUSIC OF AMERICA: JOHN WILLIAMS[/b] Disc 2. This is a mixed bag, and I don't know if I'm in the minority on this one but I really don't like The Five Sacred Trees, because its sound is definitely more classical, more abstract classical, something which I'll never be able to get, unlike my ...

- Comment [quote][b]Thor wrote[/b] That's a great set. I never picked it up, since I own all of the music on other discs, but for anyone starting out with Williams, it's a great introductory overview.[/quote] Yeah im not starting with Williams but in general I just adore compilations that give us some ...

- Comment [b]THE MUSIC OF AMERICA: JOHN WILLIAMS[/b] Disc 1. Two excellently performed suites, one for American Journey and one for Memoirs of a Geisha. American Journey is uplifting and hopeful, some clear as day nods to Far and Away, but I don't mind that with music as great as this. The take on Memoirs ...

- Comment [b]THE ROCKETEER - James H.[/b] This is one of the thematically strongest scores Horner has ever done. It has a couple of themes and they're all great and memorable. Action music packs a punch. I'm very happy with the Hollywood Records release, perfect in every way, the 2 Cole Porter songs are ...

- Comment Along with Star Trek: TMP it's in my top 5 and I put Poltergeist at top spot because there's not a single dull moment in the music. And it has heart, frights, wonder, frights, beauty and ... yes, frights. :)

- Comment I agree Bob. Being in my top 5 Williams scores I will most likely pick this up even if I find the arista release perfectly presented. Some clever sequencing by lalaland should definitely put the whole finale which amounts to 30+ minutes on the second disc.

About Chiller, sounds great definitely with Night on Bald Mountain a highlight, but not too many tracks of that caliber on ...
