Because of the numerous new film score releases almost weekly, I fail to revisit some Masterworks from the not to distant past.

I'm thinking particularly of the complete and re-mastered Jerry Goldsmith scores that Intrada has released i.e. "ALIEN, 'SAND PEBBLES', "PATTON", "MASADA" and "THE WIND AND THE LION" to name a few

Last evening I gave a listen to "THE WIND AND THE LION" and once again I was struck by the sheer brilliance of this Goldsmith score. Intrada captured the complete score on disc 1 and the album version with source cues on disc 2. It is beautifully recorded and the complete score is nothing short of brilliant.

I urge the newbies to film music to give this masterpiece an ear, you will not be disappointed.

To Intrada my heartfelt thank you for all the superb CD'S that you have given me.

I seriously need to get my hands on this one, and the other major Goldsmith scores that Intrada has released, before they stop making them.

This is an exceptional package. I am very glad to have the album with its characteristic “deep” sound, but when I listen to this score, it is usually the complete version… there were just too many brilliant moments lost on the LP.
