INTRADA Announces: ROAD HOUSE Music Composed and Conducted by MICHAEL KAMEN INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 190 For the 1989 MGM film Road House, Michael Kamen scored most of the film’s romance and drama with an array of keyboards, guitar, drums and synthesized strings. His main theme is gentle Americana, with a feel for the outdoors. Other cues are more subtle, underscoring both the blossoming romance between the leads and the growing tension that builds throughout the picture, ultimately exploding in violence. Then, in a flamboyant example of dramatic film scoring, Kamen switches to a large orchestra for the climactic fight and final showdown, providing a pair of powerful orchestral action cues that add weight to the violence on screen. For this premiere CD presentation of the score (a previous release was strictly a song compilation), Intrada was able to locate all but one of the nine 2” 24-track scoring session master reels. While this allowed for brand new two-track mixes of most of score, the lone missing reel contained two cues: the orchestral version of “Emmet’s House Explodes” and the sequence immediately after Dalton finds his best friend mortally wounded prior to the final confrontation. Nonetheless, the remaining 48 minutes, including an unused orchestral end title, provides a compelling listen to a Michael Kamen score long overdue for release. Road House stars Patrick Swayze as Dalton, who manages to transform a sleazy dive, where a good night is one where no one dies, into a clean and popular nightspot. In doing so, Dalton draws the attention of the wealthiest and most sadistic local citizen Wesley, who sees the town as his property. After Dalton calls in his mentor to help in the ongoing hostilities with Wesley, the violence quickly escalates, resulting in a final, deadly confrontation in Wesley’s mansion.

I'm wondering... is the cue where Garrett and Dalton argue in the barn (the catching of the fist moment) embedded in the This is My Town cue? Just wondering; it's one of my favorite moments in the film. ![]() |

From what I understand reading both PR descriptions: you guys found the Final Showdown reel, but there's a different reel that remains lost. Correct? Ordered, regardless. You appear to have done a fine job on this one - listening to samples shortly. |

Wow - did Intrada, or Joe, finally detract from the original poster concept? I believe that's the DVD art being used, not the original Dalton-against-the-wall poster. Nevertheless, ordered it and Renegades. |
